Some products and features are in the process of being renamed. Generative playbook and flow features are also being migrated to a single consolidated console. See the details.
Conversational Agents (Dialogflow CX) is a new natural language understanding platform
built on
generative models
that can control conversations and on
flows
that can be used for more explicit conversation control.
Conversational Agents (Dialogflow CX) makes it easy to design and integrate a conversational user interface
into your mobile app, web application, device, bot,
interactive voice response system, and so on.
Using Conversational Agents (Dialogflow CX), you can provide new and engaging ways for users
to interact with your product.
Conversational Agents (Dialogflow CX) can analyze multiple types of input from your customers,
including text or audio inputs (like from a phone or voice recording).
It can also respond to your customers in a couple of ways,
either through text or with synthetic speech.
Each new customer will receive a
$600 credit
for a $0 trial of Conversational Agents (Dialogflow CX).
Starting in late 2024 and ending in early 2025,
there will be changes to some
product names, feature names, and consoles:
Dialogflow CX will be renamed to Conversational Agents.
Dialogflow CX Messenger will be renamed to Conversational Messenger.
Dialogflow CX Phone Gateway will be renamed to Conversational Phone Gateway.
Vertex AI Agents (AI Applications playbook and data store features)
console and Dialogflow CX console have been consolidated into a single
Conversational Agents console.
The Dialogflow CX console will remain supported for the near future.
Agents created using either the Dialogflow CX console
or the Vertex AI Agents console have been automatically migrated
to the new consolidated console with no action required by users.
To ensure consistent feature names across the new Conversational Agents console
and Dialogflow CX console:
The "agents" feature in Vertex AI Agents has been renamed to "playbooks".
The "agent apps" feature in Vertex AI Agents has been renamed to "agents".
