Handling Escalation

Define clear handoff triggers:

Escalate to human when:
- Customer mentions "cancel" or "refund" more than once
- Question involves legal, medical, or financial advice
- Customer expresses frustration or uses negative language
- Issue cannot be resolved in 3 exchanges

Multi-Prompt Strategies

Create specialized prompts for different pages:

• /support → Support prompt with ticket creation steps
• /careers → Careers prompt with job listings and application info

Route traffic using URL paths or custom JavaScript.
