2. Create a new script

2.1 Script basic information

On the AICoach home page, navigate to Script Management and click Create Script to open the script creation page. You can create two basic script types: fixed Q&A scripts and free conversation scripts.

  • Fixed Q&A script: Questions and answers are predefined. The practice session follows these question-and-answer examples exactly.

  • Free conversation script: Requires you to select an agent in advance. During practice, the conversation flows freely based on the agent's configuration and assessment points.

image

Fixed Q&A script

You can use fixed Q&A scripts when you need strict control over the question-and-answer format. This script type is more structured and consistent than a free conversation script but offers less conversational flexibility.

The main difference between fixed Q&A and free conversation scripts is the use of agents. Fixed Q&A scripts do not require an agent, while free conversation scripts do.

image

Free conversation script

Free conversation scripts generate dynamic, agent-driven dialogues based on the agent's persona and assessment points. They offer greater flexibility and are used more frequently in daily scenarios than fixed Q&A scripts.

To create a free conversation script, enter a script name and description, and then click Confirm to go to the script creation page.
