FAQ

FAQ

Answers to common questions about using the AI agent.

Yes. The AI agent uses a templated HTML quote that you can customize with your logo, terms, and line items. You can adjust formatting, logos, and wording to match brand guidelines. Template changes apply to all quotes generated by the AI agent. If you need advanced customization, you can modify the HTML template and re-upload it as the new default. The process is designed to be non-destructive, preserving previous quotes for audit purposes.

The current integration configuration targets Pipedrive for trigger events and data extraction. It is possible to adapt the connector to other CRMs, but it would require adjusting data mappings and trigger sources. If you anticipate needing this, you can plan an extension or a configurable adapter in the AI agent. However, you would need to provide equivalent data fields (deal, contact, products) and a compatible signature service. For now, the solution is optimized for Pipedrive to DottedSign workflows.

Yes. The target signature field coordinates are configurable in the DottedSign task. You can set the page number and exact coordinates to align with your PDF template. Changes take effect immediately for new signing tasks. If you need multiple signers or conditional paths, you can add rules in the signing settings. Always test a sample quote to confirm the visual placement before sending to clients.

The AI agent can automatically retry sending the signing invitation at defined intervals and notify the sales team. It logs each attempt in the deal for auditability. You can configure reminders and escalation rules if signatures are overdue. If the client remains inactive, you can trigger alternative follow-ups (email, SMS, or Slack) to re-engage. All steps are tracked in Pipedrive for full visibility.

Generated PDFs are uploaded to the deal’s Files section in Pipedrive and/or linked within the deal record. This ensures the most current quote is always accessible in context. The PDFs are timestamped and associated with the correct deal, providing a clear audit trail. You can also retrieve a historical version if needed for compliance. Retrieval is available directly from the Pipedrive UI.

Yes. The AI agent supports notifications to Slack, email, or another channel of your choice when a quote is sent, signed, or if there is a failure. Alerts include key data such as deal name, quote amount, and signer status. You can customize who receives which alerts and the frequency of reminders. This ensures stakeholders stay informed without manual checks.

The current setup supports single-signer and multi-signer flows, depending on the DottedSign task configuration. You can specify multiple signers and signer order. Each signer receives an invitation linked to the same PDF quote. The AI agent tracks the completion status of all required signatures and updates the deal accordingly. If any signer declines or delays, triggers can re-route or escalate to additional actions.
