Method 2: Building an AI Assistant Programmatically with Play AI API

For developers who need full control over their AI assistant, Play AI offers a powerful API that allows you to create, manage, and customize AI-powered voice agents programmatically.

  • This method is perfect if you:
  • Want to integrate an AI assistant into your own app or website.
  • Need custom logic and workflows beyond what Play AI Studio provides.
  • Are comfortable working with APIs and JSON requests.

How to Create an AI Assistant with Play AI API

Step 1: Get API Access

  • Sign up for Play AI and get your API key from the dashboard.
  • Check out the API documentation here.

Step 2: Create a New AI Agent via API

To create an AI assistant, send a POST request to the Play AI API:

Endpoint:

POST https://api.play.ai/v1/agents

Example Request Body:

{
  "name": "My AI Assistant",
  "description": "A virtual assistant to handle customer inquiries",
  "language": "en-US",
  "voice": "default",
  "greeting_message": "Hello! How can I assist you today?",
  "fallback_message": "I’m sorry, I didn’t catch that. Could you rephrase?",
  "intents": [
    {
      "name": "BookAppointment",
      "examples": ["I want to book an appointment", "Schedule a meeting"],
      "response": "Sure! What time works best for you?"
    },
    {
      "name": "Support",
      "examples": ["I need help", "My order is missing"],
      "response": "I can help with that. Can you provide more details?"
    }
  ]
}

Step 3: Deploy & Test Your AI Assistant

  • Once you send the request, Play AI will create the AI assistant and return a unique agent ID.
  • Use this agent in calls, voice interactions, or chatbot integrations.
  • Continuously train and refine the AI assistant by updating its intents and responses.
