How do I set up AI support for my marketing tools?

Chatref Team2 min read / Updated June 16, 2026

Setting up AI support for your marketing tools lets you answer campaign, automation, and deliverability questions instantly from your own help docs. With Chatref, you train an AI agent on your guides and changelog, drop a widget into your platform, and resolve repeat questions day and night without adding headcount.

Add your marketing content once

Point Chatref at your existing help center, PDF guides, and changelog pages. The platform reads everything in minutes and builds a knowledge base grounded in your own material. Your agent then answers questions about campaign setup, list segmentation, and email deliverability directly from those docs, not from generic web guesses.

Deploy an AI agent that resolves, not just deflects

Chatref’s AI agents go beyond pointing users at an article. They understand your marketing automation workflows and can walk users through multi-step processes. The agent stays in your brand voice and handles the repeat questions that normally eat your support team’s time, so you can scale your marketing platform help without scaling headcount.

Automate marketing platform help with custom actions

Use custom actions to let your AI agent perform account-level tasks right inside the chat. A user can ask to pause a campaign or check a contact’s list membership, and the agent collects the necessary details and triggers your own tools. This turns your chat widget into a self-service console that automates marketing platform help for common operational tasks.

Shorten onboarding and capture leads

A guided onboarding flow gets your AI support live in minutes, with no code required. Once live, the agent not only answers setup questions but also captures lead information from interested visitors. When a trial user asks about pricing or a prospect inquires about advanced features, the agent hands those warm leads to your team with full conversation context.
