2. Appearance
Customize the look and feel of your agent to match your brand.
Font family: Choose from any of the free Google fonts.
Example: DM Sans
You can change the fonts of specific parts (like header and input field) using custom CSS.
Inherit Font: Type “inherit” in the font input field to use the same font as webpage. Note: The widget must be put on the website for this to work.
Not recommended, as this may break the agent – use at your own risk.

Automatic Translation:
Labels and placeholders will be automatically translated to your chosen language. Title and branding will keep their original language and text. Choose ✨Automatic to pull website language automatically.

Showcasing the agent
It’s essential to know how the agent behaves and looks before launching on your website or letting a client test it. TIXAE Agents has two options for testing, right from the agent designer:
Prototype:
- Your clients will want to test a demo of their agent. Using the prototype link is a great way to do that. If you are in the whitelabeling program, the link will have your custom domain and branding!
Demo:
- It’s not always easy to visualize how the agent will look on a website. The demo link lets you test it out in chat bubble format, so you get an idea of how the agent will look your website.
