Q: Non-English languages, personal/impersonal addressing (German Sie/Du), spelling rules handling?
I'm in Switzerland with 4 official languages plus English used everywhere. I use English / German and I need conversations to be covered in these languages i.e. some logic that looks at the contact's previous posts to guess whether to go with English or German. Plus logic that i.e. will assume to start with impersonal addressing until e.g. a contact has addressed me back with personal form or my first name. Lastly, can I provide a prompt to set the language rules i.e. when English use British English spelling rules (more s than z, e.g. in words such as organisation), when German use Swiss German spelling rules (e.g. ss rather than ß - in words such as in Gruss). How do you handle these 3 requirements; non-English, personal/impersonal handling, prompt to set spelling rules? Please can you give a detailed response of what is supported.

-On languages, yes, ScaliQ already supports multi-language conversations. The agent can detect and adapt based on the prospect’s profile, activity, and language used, so it will naturally switch between English and German when needed.
-For personal vs impersonal (Sie/Du), the agent is designed to stay on the safe side by default. It will typically start more formal, and then adapt based on how the prospect replies.
-On spelling and language rules, this is exactly where things get more powerful. We’re releasing custom instructions next week, which will let you define very precise rules like British English spelling, Swiss German conventions (ss vs ß), tone, formality, etc.
So you’ll be able to shape the agent exactly how you want across languages and contexts.
