Prompts define how your AI agent behaves and communicates. Kakiyo uses a two-layer prompt system that gives you complete control over conversation style and strategy.
Two-Layer Prompt System
Context Prompt
Defines your AI agent’s behavior, personality, and conversation strategy. Includes:- Agent’s role and personality
- Conversation goals and objectives
- Tone and communication style
- Limits and boundaries
- Fallback behaviors and responses
First Message Prompt
Defines how conversations are opened after connection acceptance. Includes:- Opening message structure
- Value proposition delivery
- Personalization approach
- Call-to-action strategy
Variable System
Variables allow you to reuse prompts across multiple campaigns and agents with different parameters.Required Variables
Must be configured for every campaign:- Prospect Description: All prospect information for personalization
- Offering Description: Knowledge about what you’re selling
Important: you don’t need to enter a value for those variables, just place them somewhere in one of your 2 prompts and let the AI Agent fill them for you.
Optional Variables
Pre-defined variables for common use cases:- Agent Name: Name the AI should use in conversations
- Company: Your company name for the campaign
- Prospect Name: How to address prospects
Custom Variables
Create your own variables for specific needs:- Goal: Different objectives for different campaigns
- Industry: Specific messaging for different sectors
- Custom messaging: Any other variable content you need
Example usage: You want to use the same prompt in 2 different campaigns. Instead of writing “Your objective is to book a meeting” in the prompt, use “Your objective is to ” and set Goal = “book a meeting” in Campaign 1 and Goal = “visit my website” in Campaign 2.
