Train Fin to detect key attributes in every conversation

Zoe avatar
Shared by Zoe • October 23, 2025

Fin can now automatically detect the attributes you define—like issue type, sentiment, or urgency—in every customer conversation.

By understanding what customers mean in real time, Fin can route issues, trigger workflows, and hand off to teammates automatically—replacing manual tagging and rigid button flows with a smarter, more responsive way to manage conversations.

Set up Fin Attributes to turn natural language into structured data that reflects how your business actually works. Then, use them alongside other Fin features to create a smarter and more connected support experience:

  • Workflows: Automatically route conversations based on what Fin detects—no menus or rigid paths. For example, route billing issues to Finance or flag negative sentiment for a specialist team.
  • Escalation Rules: Use Fin Attributes alongside Escalation Rules to stay in complete control of when Fin hands off.
  • Reporting: Analyze conversations by attributes (e.g., Billing, Negative sentiment, High urgency) to see which topics drive volume, how performance varies by issue type, and where escalations cluster. If multiple attributes are detected, each contributes to your view.

More control over Fin feedback options

For Fin replies over email, Quick Reply buttons are now off by default.

Instead of showing predefined replies, Fin will follow up with a context-specific question to keep the conversation going - just like a human agent would. This works better for email, where natural back-and-forth is more effective than clicking buttons.

If your workflows depend on Quick Replies, you can turn them back on in settings.

Transform and manipulate API responses using code blocks directly

Shared by Sze • August 18, 2025

With code blocks for Data connectors, you can transform and manipulate API responses using Python directly in the Data connector setup. Unstructured or oversized payloads from APIs can often increase the chances that AI agents, such as Fin, misinterpret or fail to deliver clear answers.

Code blocks enable you to preprocess, filter, and reshape API responses before they reach Fin - all without backend changes.

Shared by Akash • August 18, 2025

When Fin replies over email, source links now appear right next to the relevant text — no more jumping to the bottom. This makes it faster to verify information, reduces visual clutter, and helps build trust in Fin’s responses.

What's new:

  • Inline verification: See exactly where information comes from without breaking your reading flow.
  • Cleaner layout: No more long footers — everything’s in context.
  • Automatic update: Works for all email replies, no setup required.

Branch on Escalation Guidance in Workflows

Zoe avatar
Shared by Zoe • August 15, 2025

You can now control how Fin routes escalated conversations to your team using branching logic in Workflows. This new capability lets you create custom branches based on which piece of Handover and Escalation Guidance was applied - so every escalation goes to the right team, every time.

With Workflow branching, you can:

  • Route escalations with precision, depending on the specific guidance Fin applied
  • Mirror your support policies by creating branch-specific logic that aligns with your team structure and handover processes.
  • Combine with other conversation attribute filters - like customer type, pricing plan or language - for even more precise routing.

This gives your team more flexibility and confidence when handling high-stakes or complex support scenarios with Fin.

Head to Fin Guidance in your workspace to explore the latest improvements.
