Routing rules let you direct each visitor to the right human or AI based on context.

Routing basics

Routing rules run top-to-bottom — the first matching rule wins. Each rule has a trigger (URL contains, UTM source, visitor company size, etc.) and an action (assign to team, assign to agent, ignore).

Common patterns

Most teams start with three rules:

  1. Pricing-page traffic → Sales team
  2. Support-page traffic → Support team
  3. Everyone else → AI-only auto-handle

Add rules over time as you spot patterns in your inbox.
