Ever wished your Voiceflow agent could tell a real work email from a personal one? 🤔 This breakdown reveals how to leverage the power of AI for smarter email validation within your Voiceflow projects.
🧠 Understanding AI Classification
Imagine teaching your agent to sort emails like a pro. 🗃️ That’s what AI classification does! You train an AI model to recognize patterns and categorize data – in this case, identifying work, personal, and education emails.
Real-life Example: Think of spam filters. They use AI classification to analyze incoming emails and decide whether they belong in your inbox or spam folder. 📧🚫
💡 Pro Tip: When training your AI model, provide clear examples of each email type. The more diverse your examples, the better your model will perform!
📝 Crafting the Perfect Prompt
Your AI model needs clear instructions. This is where prompts come in. A well-written prompt guides the AI to deliver the desired outcome.
Example Prompt:
“You are an email classifier. Your job is to determine if an email is a work email, personal email, or education email.
Rules:
- Work email = 1
- Personal email/Junk email/Invalid email = 0
- Education email = 2
Examples:
- input: voiceflow.com output: 1
- input: gmail.com output: 0
- input: stanford.edu output: 2″
🤯 Surprising Fact: Even small changes in your prompt can significantly impact the AI’s performance. Experiment to find what works best!
💡 Pro Tip: Always include a system prompt to set clear boundaries for your AI model. For example, “You are an email classifier. You only output numbers 0, 1, or 2. Don’t include anything else.”
🚦 Routing Emails Based on Classification
Once your AI model classifies the email, you need to tell your Voiceflow agent what to do next. This is where conditional logic comes in.
How it Works:
- Capture the AI’s output: Store the classification result (0, 1, or 2) in a variable.
- Set up conditions: Use a “condition” step in Voiceflow to check the variable’s value.
- Create paths: Define different paths for each email type (work, personal, education).
- Craft responses: Tailor your agent’s response based on the email classification.
Example:
- Work email (1): “Great! Let’s proceed. What can I help you with today?”
- Personal email (0): “Please enter a valid work email.”
- Education email (2): “Welcome! We have special resources for students. Would you like to learn more?”
💡 Pro Tip: Always include an “else” path to handle unexpected outputs from the AI model. This ensures your agent doesn’t get stuck.
