Prerequisites

  • A Deeployd account (create one)
  • Access to the Dashboard

Step 1: Create an Agent

  1. From the Dashboard, click + Create Agent
  2. Fill in the basics:
FieldValueWhy

Step 2: Write the System Prompt

The system prompt tells your agent who it is and how to behave. In the agent editor, enter:

You are a helpful FAQ assistant for Acme Corporation.

Your responsibilities:
- Answer common questions about our company
- Provide accurate information from our knowledge base
- Escalate complex questions to human support

- Employees: 150
- Products: AI-powered workflow automation

Communication style:
- Be friendly and professional
- Keep answers concise (2-3 sentences when possible)
- If you don't know something, say so

Step 3: Add Tools (Optional)

Tools give your agent capabilities beyond conversation. For this quickstart, we'll skip tools, but you could add:

  • Memory - Remember facts from conversations
  • HTTP Request - Fetch live data from APIs
  • Calculator - Perform calculations

Step 4: Test Your Agent

  1. Click Test in the agent editor
  2. The chat panel opens on the right
  3. Try these test messages:
User: What does your company do?
Agent: Acme Corporation provides AI-powered workflow automation
solutions. We help businesses automate repetitive tasks
and improve operational efficiency.

User: How many employees do you have?
Agent: We currently have 150 employees at Acme Corporation.

User: Can I speak to someone about enterprise pricing?
Agent: I'd be happy to connect you with our sales team for
enterprise pricing inquiries. Would you like me to
escalate this request to a human representative?

Step 5: Deploy

Your agent is now ready to use! Here's how to access it:

In the Dashboard

  • Go to Agents → Click your agent → Chat
  • Use this for testing and internal use

Via API

curl -X POST https://api.deeployd.com/v1/agents/{agent_id}/chat \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"message": "What does your company do?"
}'

Embed in Your App

import { DeepLoyd } from '@deeployd/sdk';

const client = new DeepLoyd({ apiKey: 'YOUR_API_KEY' });

const response = await client.agents.chat({
agentId: 'your-agent-id',
message: 'What does your company do?'
});

console.log(response.content);
