Set the chatbot’s title and colours

Use the Branding section.

Field What it does
Chatbot Title The name shown in the chat window header, usually your brand or support team name.
Chatbot Subtitle A short line under the title, for example “Hey, how can I help you?”
Brand Colour The main colour of the chatbot. In the preview it colours the launcher and the customer’s message bubbles. Enter a hex code or pick a colour.
Title-bar Colour The background colour of the chat window header. Click Remove to go back to the default.

Change the launcher and images

Use the Image Assets section.

Field What it does
Launcher Icon Choose how the launcher looks: an image only, text only, or an image with text.
Launcher Text The label on a text launcher, for example “Help & Support”.
Launcher Image The image on the launcher. Click Change to upload a new one or Remove to delete it.
Launcher Icon Size A slider from 1x to 3x that scales the launcher.
Header Image The image in the chat window header, usually your logo.
Agent Image The avatar shown next to the AI agent’s messages.

Show a welcome banner

Turn on Banner Image & Text. The banner is shown at the start of a chat to welcome the customer.

Fill in:

  • Header: the banner’s heading.
  • Description: one or two lines under the heading.
  • Agent Image: the image shown in the banner.

Add a disclaimer

Turn on Add a Disclaimer and write your Disclaimer Text. It is shown at the start of the chat, above the first message. The limit is 600 characters.

Use it for notices customers should see before they start, for example “Replies are generated by AI and may contain mistakes”.

Use the Footer section.

Field What it does
Message Input Placeholder The grey text in the message box before the customer types, for example “Type your question…”
Powered by Robylon Shows a small “Powered by Robylon” link in the footer.
Add Custom Footer Shows a short notice below the message box, for example an AI disclosure, with formatting and links. The limit is 300 characters.
Custom Footer Link Marked Deprecated. It appears only on chatbots that already use it, and shows a link (by default “Privacy Policy”) next to Powered by Robylon. Turning on Add Custom Footer switches it off.

Chatbot text in other languages

The title, subtitle, placeholder, banner text and footer text can be shown in each language your chatbot supports. Set up the languages first in Languages.

Under each text field is a translation counter, for example 0/1 and 1 empty. Click it to open Translations for that field, then either type the text for each language or click Translate (one language) or Translate all to fill it in with AI. A language left empty shows the default text. Click Update to save.

Language overview at the top of the tab shows which languages still have empty fields. Use the language switcher above the preview to check each language.
