Note:

• Smart Reply depends on the information available in your AI Assist data sources. The more relevant information you provide, the better Smart Reply will be at providing accurate responses. To learn more, check out this guide: Understanding AI Assist’s Data Sources
  
  
• Refining Smart Reply responses may take time, just like training a new team member.
  
  

Each suggestion Smart Reply generates uses 1 message of your monthly AI Assist message usage. Once this limit is reached, AI Assist will stop responding to your chats until it resets the following month. To resume, you can buy message credits (called "overages") or upgrade your plan.
