How to Use AI Agent Studio in GoHighLevel
If you manage customer workflows in ClickUp or other tools and want a smarter support layer, the AI Agent Studio in GoHighLevel helps you design consistent, on-brand conversations. This step-by-step guide explains how to configure, train, test, and deploy an AI agent using the visual studio so it can respond accurately inside your GoHighLevel account.
This how-to is based on the official HighLevel documentation and walks you through each setting in the AI Agent Studio interface. You will learn how to create new agents, customize their behavior, and test responses before going live.
Accessing AI Agent Studio in GoHighLevel
To start working with AI Agent Studio inside GoHighLevel, you first need to reach the main AI settings area from your account dashboard. Everything related to agents is managed from a single visual interface.
- Log in to your GoHighLevel account.
- Navigate to the AI or AI Agent Studio section in the left-hand menu (name may vary based on updates).
- Open the AI Agent Studio to view the list of existing agents and the option to add a new one.
From this screen you can create new agents, edit existing ones, and manage all configuration related to knowledge, instructions, and behavior.
Creating a New AI Agent in GoHighLevel
The first step in building an AI assistant is to create a new agent profile and define its base settings. These settings control its identity and where it can be used in your GoHighLevel account.
- In the AI Agent Studio, click New Agent or the equivalent button.
- Enter a clear Agent Name that reflects its purpose, such as “Support Bot” or “Lead Qualifier”.
- Add a short Description to document what this agent should be used for.
- Choose the appropriate Workspace or account scope if prompted, so the agent appears where you need it in GoHighLevel.
- Save the agent to open its full configuration tabs.
After the basic profile is created, you can move into training and behavior configuration using the tabs within AI Agent Studio.
Configuring GoHighLevel AI Agent Behavior
Once the agent exists, you must define how it speaks, what it is allowed to do, and any limitations. This is handled via configuration options inside GoHighLevel AI Agent Studio.
Core behavior settings in GoHighLevel
Inside the agent configuration, you will typically find settings like:
- Role or Persona – Defines who the agent is supposed to act as, such as a friendly support representative or a professional account manager.
- Tone of Voice – Specifies whether replies are casual, formal, concise, or detailed.
- Language – Sets the primary language the agent should use when responding.
- Response Length – Controls whether the AI should respond briefly or with more comprehensive explanations.
Adjust these options so the agent matches your brand style and the expectations of your audience.
Instruction prompts for GoHighLevel agents
AI Agent Studio allows you to embed system-level instructions that guide the agent on every response. Typically, you can specify:
- Do and Don’t Rules – Clarify what the agent should never answer, such as legal advice or medical diagnoses.
- Business Rules – Provide standard policies like refund rules, appointment conditions, or service limitations.
- Escalation Conditions – List the phrases or conditions that should cause the agent to hand off to a human.
Write instructions clearly and in plain language so the GoHighLevel AI engine can follow them reliably in any conversation.
Adding Knowledge and Context to Your GoHighLevel Agent
To provide accurate answers, your AI agent must understand your business, offers, and processes. AI Agent Studio supports adding structured knowledge directly into the agent.
Knowledge sources in GoHighLevel AI Agent Studio
The studio typically lets you attach different types of content so the agent can reference it when forming responses. You may see options to add or link:
- FAQs
- Product or service descriptions
- Pricing and plans
- Company policies
- Support documentation
For each source you can usually specify a title and content so it is easy to maintain over time. Ensure the information is accurate and up to date before making the agent available to your users.
Organizing knowledge in GoHighLevel
Structure your content so the GoHighLevel AI agent can find relevant information efficiently. Good practices include:
- Grouping related topics together (e.g., billing, scheduling, cancellations).
- Using headings and short paragraphs within long documents.
- Separating outdated or seasonal information into its own section for easy removal.
Well-organized knowledge reduces confusion and helps the agent stay consistent in its answers.
Testing Your AI Agent in GoHighLevel
Before connecting the agent to real users, you should test it thoroughly inside the AI Agent Studio interface. This allows you to adjust instructions or knowledge without risking live customer frustration.
Running test conversations
- Open your agent inside the AI Agent Studio dashboard.
- Locate the Test or Preview panel, usually on the right side or as a separate tab.
- Type common customer questions and observe how the AI responds.
- Ask edge-case questions the agent should not answer and confirm it follows your rules.
- Adjust instructions or knowledge if the behavior is not what you expect, then test again.
Repeat this process until the GoHighLevel agent consistently answers correctly and respects your escalation and safety policies.
Refining responses in GoHighLevel
During testing, note issues such as:
- Responses that are too long or too short.
- Missing disclaimers or important policy references.
- Incorrect assumptions or outdated details.
Update the instruction prompts or knowledge base and continue iterating until results match your standards.
Deploying the GoHighLevel AI Agent
Once you are satisfied with testing, you can connect the agent to live channels so it can start handling interactions.
Common deployment locations
Depending on your account setup, GoHighLevel supports linking the AI agent to:
- Website chat widgets.
- Funnel or landing page chat components.
- Internal support tools or conversation views.
Use the deployment options exposed in AI Agent Studio to select this agent wherever your customers normally reach you.
Monitoring and optimization
After deployment, you should monitor how the agent performs and keep refining it over time.
- Review conversation logs for misunderstandings.
- Identify topics that require new knowledge entries.
- Update instructions when business policies change.
Continuous optimization helps the GoHighLevel AI agent remain accurate and valuable to your team.
Managing Multiple Agents in GoHighLevel
If your organization serves different audiences or use cases, you can manage several agents from one GoHighLevel AI Agent Studio.
- Create dedicated agents for support, sales, or onboarding.
- Give each agent its own persona, tone, and instructions.
- Assign agents to specific funnels, pages, or workspaces.
This separation allows you to provide specialized experiences without mixing instructions or knowledge between unrelated workflows.
