# Kustomer

*Last updated: May 6, 2026*

Connect Kustomer to let Aissist support customer conversations inside your workspace.

With Kustomer, Aissist can:

* draft or send replies
* apply tags
* create summaries
* detect when human follow-up is needed

### Create the Kustomer gateway

1. Go to **Deploy → Gateways**.
2. Click **Add Gateway**.
3. Choose **Kustomer**.
4. Follow the setup steps to authorize the connection.

### Choose the operating mode

During setup, choose the operating mode:

* **Auto-Pilot** — Aissist replies automatically

Start with one narrow workflow.

Run **Auto-Pilot** for a short period, review the results, optimize Aissist, then gradually increase **Auto-Pilot** time.

### How Aissist works in Kustomer

Aissist can support the Kustomer workflow in several ways.

#### Reply

Aissist generates context-aware replies using your instructions, assets, and actions.

### Best practice

Start with one repeatable workflow and run **Auto-Pilot** for a short period of time first.

Review the results, optimize Aissist, then gradually increase **Auto-Pilot** time.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://doc.aissist.io/gateways/kustomer.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
