Setting up your AI Avatar is like building your very own smart digital assistant — someone who communicates in your style, shares your expertise, and helps others when you can’t be there in person.
Let’s walk through this journey together by creating an example AI Avatar called Ava Contenti, a Social Media Content Expert.
Go to the AI Avatars page.
Click the "Create Avatar" button.
This will open the setup form where you'll enter all the information that brings your AI Avatar to life.
You will see an option to upload an image. Choose a picture that matches your Avatar’s vibe and role.
For Ava Contenti, we’ll upload a vibrant and friendly photo that reflects her creative and strategic personality — perfect for a social media expert.
✅ Tip: Pick an image that feels approachable, relatable, and fits the service your Avatar offers.
Here’s how we will fill out Ava’s profile:
AI Avatar Name
Ava Contenti
AI Avatar Description
Ava is your go-to expert for all things social media. With a keen eye for trends, audience engagement, and platform algorithms, she crafts content strategies that turn followers into loyal fans. Whether it's creating high-converting posts, planning viral campaigns, or optimizing profiles for maximum reach, Ava brings creativity and data-driven insights together seamlessly. She specializes in Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube, and emerging platforms — always staying one step ahead of the digital curve. Ava can help you: Plan, create, and optimize content calendars. Generate ideas for viral posts, reels, and shorts. Craft compelling captions, hooks, and CTAs. Analyze engagement metrics to refine your strategy. Stay updated with the latest social media trends and best practices. Build authentic connections with your audience. Her tone is vibrant, creative, and strategic — just like the content she helps you produce. With Ava by your side, your social media presence won't just grow — it'll thrive.
✅ Tip: Be detailed in the description — it helps users understand exactly how your Avatar can assist them.
Next, you’ll create a Welcome Message — the first thing users will see when they interact with your AI Avatar.
Here’s Ava’s welcome message:
"Hey there! 👋 I’m Ava, your personal Social Media Content Expert. I'm here to help you create magnetic content, grow your audience, and make sure every post you share truly connects. Whether you're looking for fresh ideas, optimized strategies, or viral magic, I've got you covered. 🚀 Ready to take your social media game to the next level? Let’s get started!"
✅ Tip: Your welcome message sets the tone. Keep it warm, encouraging, and aligned with your Avatar’s role.
Now, it’s time to describe the Response Style — how your Avatar will interact with users.
Here’s Ava’s response style:
"I aim to respond in a way that feels like your trusted social media strategist and creative partner:
Friendly, upbeat, and motivating, so you always feel inspired.
Clear and actionable, providing step-by-step advice you can immediately use.
Trendy and up-to-date, always incorporating the latest platform updates and viral trends.
Creative yet strategic, ensuring your content not only looks great but also drives real results.
Supportive and personalized, adapting to your brand voice, goals, and audience. Think of me as your behind-the-scenes content coach — here to make social media simpler, smarter, and way more fun!"
✅ Tip: Choose a response style that reflects how you want people to feel when interacting with your AI Avatar — supported, motivated, or professionally guided.
Once you’ve filled in all the fields, click Save Changes.
Preview your Avatar to see how it will look and interact with users.
You’ll see Ava’s smiling face, her welcoming message, and her vibrant communication style — ready to assist anyone who needs help with social media!
✅ Tip: It’s easy to go back and make edits later if you want to tweak the tone, image, or wording.
A Knowledge Base is like the brain of your AI Avatar. It’s a collection of documents, notes, guides, or materials that you upload to teach your Avatar more detailed information about your area of expertise.
Think of it like giving your AI Avatar a backpack full of resources it can pull from when answering questions.
Without a Knowledge Base, your Avatar can still chat and help based on your description and response style — but with a Knowledge Base, your Avatar becomes smarter, more detailed, and more accurate.
Make Your Avatar Smarter: It can answer more complex questions, just like a real expert would.
Stay Consistent: Your Avatar will use the exact language, methods, and ideas you teach it, ensuring it always sounds like you.
Save Time: Instead of you repeating the same explanations over and over, your Avatar will handle it — using the correct materials you provide.
Build Trust: Users get more accurate, complete answers based on real knowledge, not just general advice.
You can upload:
PDFs (training guides, templates, FAQs, tutorials)
Checklists or step-by-step instructions
Case studies, best practices
Resource documents, notes, or even course materials
✅ Important: Files must be PDF format. You can upload up to 5 PDF files (with a combined size of up to 50MB).
Let’s say we want Ava (our Social Media Content Expert Avatar) to know about:
How to create a monthly content calendar
How to write viral Instagram captions
How to build authentic engagement on Instagram and LinkedIn
We could upload PDFs titled:
“Content Calendar Blueprint.pdf”
“Top TikTok Caption Strategies.pdf”
“Authentic Engagement Guide.pdf”
These documents would allow Ava to pull real strategies and specific examples when someone asks for help — just like a real social media coach would.
For Ava, you might create:
Knowledge Base Name
Social Media Content Strategy Knowledge Base
Tags
social media, content marketing, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, audience growth, branding
Description
This Knowledge Base contains advanced strategies, best practices, templates, and real-world examples for building strong, engaging social media profiles across platforms. It covers viral content planning, caption writing, storytelling, brand building, and audience psychology.
✅ Tip: Upload PDFs, guides, or templates that reinforce your Avatar’s knowledge and make their answers even richer and more accurate.
Yes! You can always:
Upload new PDFs.
Replace outdated documents.
Delete materials you no longer want your Avatar to reference.
Keeping your Knowledge Base fresh is one of the best ways to make sure your AI Avatar stays smart and relevant over time.
✅ Tip: Plan to review and refresh your Knowledge Base every 3 to 6 months.
After reviewing everything:
Click Deploy to make your AI Avatar live.
Your users can now interact with your Avatar, get personalized advice, and enjoy the expertise you’ve built into it.
And just like that — Ava Contenti is live and ready to help the world master social media marketing!
