My invoice shows two charges for the same month. Can you help?

FAQ

Questions before choosing a first use case

The best first deployment is usually the workflow with high volume, clear rules, and obvious handoff points.

Which Embage use case should I start with?

Most teams start with the workflow that creates repetitive manual work: support FAQs, inbound leads, feedback collection, booking requests, or Shopify product questions.

Can one Embage agent handle multiple workflows?

Yes. One agent can route conversations by intent and use specialized subagents for tasks like searching knowledge, saving leads, writing feedback, queuing bookings, or triggering integrations.

How secure are the records collected during conversations?

Conversation outcomes, leads, feedback, tickets, and booking records are scoped to the organization and protected by permissioned access controls.
