What You Can See

Message History

View the complete back-and-forth between your chatbot and the visitor. Each message shows:
  • Who sent it (visitor or chatbot)
  • The message content
  • When it was sent

Session Details

Each conversation includes metadata about the visitor’s session:
DetailDescription
LocationThe visitor’s general location (city, country)
DeviceWhether they’re on desktop, mobile, or tablet
BrowserWhich web browser they’re using
This information helps you understand your audience and how they’re interacting with your chatbot.

Conversation Summary

Chatref provides a summary of each conversation, making it easy to quickly understand what was discussed without reading every message.

Real-Time Updates

Conversations update in real time. When a visitor sends a new message, it appears in your Inbox immediately — no need to refresh the page. This is especially useful if you’re monitoring active conversations or using human handoff.

Message Feedback

Visitors can rate chatbot responses as helpful or unhelpful. You can see this feedback in the conversation view, which helps you identify areas where your chatbot could improve.

Using Conversations to Improve Your Chatbot

Regularly reviewing conversations can help you:
  • Identify knowledge gaps — If visitors ask questions your chatbot can’t answer, add that information to your knowledge base
  • Spot common questions — Add frequently asked topics as suggested messages
  • Refine the system prompt — If the tone or style isn’t right, adjust the system prompt
  • Find errors — Catch any inaccurate or unhelpful responses and fix the underlying training data
Set aside time each week to review recent conversations. This is the best way to continuously improve your chatbot’s performance.
