Webpage Awareness – Overview
This guide introduces the Website Awareness feature - an advanced agentic capability that enables your agent to understand where it's deployed and use that context to deliver smarter, more relevant responses.
What is the Webpage Awareness feature?
As part of our Context Awareness package, Webpage Awareness enables your agent to understand the environment in which it operates. When the agent is deployed on a webpage, a summary of that page is automatically generated and added to the agent’s internal system prompt.
This gives the agent awareness of the page’s content and purpose—so it doesn’t just respond to what the user says, but also understands where the user is. That context allows the agent to deliver more relevant, focused, and outcome-driven responses.
Note:This is a premium feature.
Why is Webpage Awareness important?
An agent that understands what the user wants is helpful. But one that also understands where they are? That’s truly powerful.
By understanding the page context, the agent can:
- Anticipate user intent more accurately
- Provide better recommendations or answers
- Increase engagement and satisfaction through more personalized conversations
This context makes your agent feel less like a general chatbot - and more like a smart assistant embedded into the user journey.
How Webpage Awareness works
- On the first load of the page where your agent is deployed, CustomGPT crawls and generates a summary of the page content.
- That summary is stored and added to the agent’s internal system prompt.
- The agent uses this context to better understand what users are likely to ask and how best to assist them.
- Supported deployment types are Embed, Live Chat, Website Copilot, and Instant Viewer.
Note:Webpage Awareness has an added agentic cost of 1, which means queries using it will cost more. You can learn more here.
Webpage Awareness unlocks advanced features
Webpage Awareness work the best in synergy with several other premium capabilities:
- It provides the critical intelligence to Drive Conversions feature, enabling the agent to guide users more effectively based on the content of the page they're on.
- It also unlocks Context-rich starter questions, allowing the agent to generate tailored prompts that reflect the user’s context.
