Operating overview

What the dashboard is for

The dashboard helps you orient quickly. Use it to spot activity, changes and areas that deserve attention, then move into the appropriate detailed view before making an operational decision.

Use it to
  • Confirm that conversation activity is present.
  • Notice meaningful changes over time.
  • Identify where closer review may be needed.
  • Support a consistent monitoring routine.
Do not use it alone to
  • Judge the quality of an individual answer.
  • Confirm that a human completed the next action.
  • Calculate final revenue or return on investment.
  • Diagnose a channel or workflow without checking detail.

Your view may vary. Available cards, controls and information can depend on your workspace configuration and role. Use the concepts in this guide even when the arrangement or labels in your account differ.

Four questions

Read the dashboard in this order

Begin with questions, not isolated numbers. The sequence below turns a broad overview into a practical review path.

01Activity

Are conversations happening?

Use the high-level activity view to confirm that the workspace is receiving and processing the conversations you expect.

02Attention

Does anything need review?

Look for changes, gaps or unusual patterns that should be investigated in the Conversation Inbox or the connected business system.

03Ownership

Are people taking over when needed?

Confirm that conversations requiring a person are visible, assigned and reaching the intended team destination.

04Health

Is the workspace ready to operate?

Review the broader account picture: active entry points, current knowledge, defined handoffs and appropriate team access.

Read → compare → investigate → act

See the current picture, compare it with what you expected, open the supporting detail, and take action only after the context is clear.

High-level signals

How to interpret the activity view

The dashboard is most useful when each signal leads to a specific verification step. Exact measurements may vary, but the reasoning remains the same.

01

Current activity

Use the selected time period to understand whether conversation volume is present and moving in the expected direction.

Verify next

If the number looks wrong, verify the period, workspace and connected entry point.

02

Change over time

Treat increases or decreases as investigation prompts. A change may reflect traffic, campaign timing, seasonality or a connection issue.

Verify next

Compare the pattern with the campaign, website and business activity that should have created it.

03

Conversations needing attention

A high-level signal can tell you where to look, but the underlying conversation explains what actually happened.

Verify next

Open the Conversation Inbox and review the relevant messages before deciding what to change.

04

Human follow-through

The dashboard may help surface operational patterns, while ownership and completion must be confirmed in the team workflow.

Verify next

Check assignments, handoff context and the destination where your team completes the next action.

Important

A rising number is not automatically positive, and a falling number is not automatically a failure. Interpret activity in the context of traffic, timing, campaigns, customer demand and the intended business outcome.

Monitoring cadence

Use a simple review routine

A consistent routine makes changes easier to recognize and keeps the dashboard from becoming a screen that is opened only after a problem appears.

Daily5-minute scan
  • Confirm expected activity is present.
  • Look for obvious changes or interruptions.
  • Open conversations requiring immediate attention.
  • Confirm urgent handoffs have an owner.
Weekly20-minute review
  • Compare activity with traffic and campaign timing.
  • Review a sample of normal and escalated conversations.
  • Identify recurring questions and knowledge gaps.
  • Record one or two improvements to test.
Useful output

End each review with a short record: what changed, what you verified, what needs an owner and when the correction will be checked again.

Operational readiness

What account health should mean in practice

Account health is broader than a single status indicator. A healthy workspace has the information, connections, controls and human ownership required to support the intended conversation.

01

Entry points

The intended website, account, page, number or supported channel remains connected and available.

02

AI Agent scope

The active AI Agent still reflects the approved purpose, boundaries and next action.

03

Knowledge

Pricing, policies, availability, services and other source material remain current.

04

Handoffs

Escalations and qualified requests reach a monitored person, team or business system.

05

Team access

The right people can see and act on the conversations their role requires.

06

Notifications

Important events can reach the responsible team without creating unnecessary noise.

Health principle

A workspace can show activity and still require attention. Review the operating system around the conversations—not only whether messages exist.

Troubleshooting

When the dashboard looks different than expected

Start with the simplest explanation and verify one layer at a time. Avoid changing the AI Agent or channel configuration until you understand where the difference begins.

01

Confirm the time period

A narrow or previously selected date range can make expected activity appear to be missing.

02

Confirm the workspace

Make sure you are reviewing the intended account or workspace before comparing results.

03

Review filters

Clear or adjust active filters that may be narrowing the visible activity.

04

Check your role

Dashboard areas and account details can vary according to access and responsibility.

05

Open the Inbox

Verify whether the expected conversations exist at the individual-message level.

06

Check the source event

Confirm that the campaign, website, channel or customer action actually produced activity.

Before contacting support

Capture the comparison clearly

Include the workspace, time period, expected activity, visible result and one example conversation or source event. Remove private customer details that are not needed.

Interpret carefully

What the dashboard does not prove on its own

01

Answer quality

Read representative conversations to evaluate accuracy, clarity, boundaries and customer usefulness.

02

Completed outcomes

Confirm bookings, purchases, estimates, applications and other final actions in the system that owns them.

03

Commercial impact

Connect conversation activity with qualified opportunities and business results where reliable attribution is available.
