The agent's questions

Most of the time, the agent makes sensible choices and builds without bothering you. But some information it simply can’t guess: your brand name, your logo, your real prices, your address… In that case, instead of listing its questions in its reply, it sends you a short form in the chat.

The agent sends you a form only when a few answers really change what it builds, for example:

  • your brand identity: name, colors, logo;
  • real content: your offers and their prices, your contact details, your opening hours;
  • a choice of direction between clearly different options (a single page or several pages, a warm or a corporate tone…).

It never asks about things it can decide itself, and sends at most one form per request. API keys and the choice of where to store data go through other cards (see Chatting with the agent).

In the reply, the Asks you a few questions step shows up, then the agent ends its turn with a short sentence inviting you to answer. The form shows below the chat, with the Questions from the agent heading and the topic of the form.

  1. Read the questions: the agent has often pre-filled its best guesses. Keep them if they suit you, correct them otherwise.
  2. Fill in the fields. Those marked optional can stay empty.
  3. Click Send my answers.

Your answers go out as a message in the chat (“My answers to “…”:“, then one line per question) and the agent picks up its work right away with this information.

A form has one to eight questions. Each question uses one of these fields:

Field How to answer
Text A short answer (your brand name, a tagline).
Long text A multi-line answer (a description, an introduction).
Number A numeric value, sometimes with a unit (“€”, “people”) and limits.
Email A valid email address.
URL A full web address, starting with https://.
Date A date, picked in the calendar.
Single choice Click one option (clicking it again unselects it). Beyond six options, a dropdown (Choose…) replaces the chips.
Multiple choice Click every option that applies.
Other… Offered in some choices: click it and type your own answer in the Your answer field.
Color Click one of the suggested colors, open the picker to choose another one, or type its code (for example #2563EB).
Slider Drag the slider between the two bounds shown; the chosen value shows on the right.
Yes / No Click Yes or No.
Image Click Upload an image and pick a file (your logo, a photo). The image is saved straight into the project and the agent gets it with your answers. Remove the image lets you change it.

When you click Send my answers, Highwind checks each field. If something’s wrong, the message Check the highlighted fields. shows up and each field involved tells you the problem:

  • An answer is required: the field isn’t optional and it’s empty;
  • Invalid email address;
  • Invalid web address (https://…);
  • Value out of range: the number is outside the expected limits;
  • Color as #RRGGBB.

Fix the highlighted fields, then send again.

No opinion, or no time? Click Let the agent decide. Highwind sends “I’ll let you decide on these questions: go with your best judgment.” and the agent decides by itself, then carries on.

  • Writing any other message closes the form. If you’d rather answer in your own words, just type your answer in the chat: the agent takes it into account and the form disappears.
  • If sending fails (out of credits, agent already working), the form stays open with your answers: you can try again later.
  • In Discussion mode too: the agent can send you a form while you’re preparing a plan together, and your answers go out in the current mode. See Discussion mode.
  • Sending your answers uses credits, like any message: it’s a new request to the agent, which resumes building.
