# Overview

> AI actions let your agent do more than answer questions. During a conversation, the agent can trigger a task, pull in data, or hand off to a person, so it can actually resolve requests instead of just replying to them. Each action connects your agent to a specific tool or workflow. The available actions are below.

Support and handoff

* **Escalations**: Create a support ticket in your ticketing system when a customer needs human help.
* **Chatbase live chat**: Hand off from the AI agent to a human agent in Chatbase.
* **Salesforce live chat**: Hand off to a human agent in Salesforce.
* **Sunshine live chat**: Hand off to a human agent in Sunshine.

Commerce

* **Stripe**: Handle billing, invoices, and subscription queries in chat.
* **Shopify**: Recommend products, answer order questions, and provide delivery updates.

Lead capture

* **Collect leads**: Capture user details as leads.
* **Custom form**: Collect information from users with a custom form.

Scheduling

* **Cal**: Let customers check availability and book meetings without leaving the chat.
* **Calendly**: Let customers check availability and book meetings without leaving the chat.

Other

* **Custom actions**: Call your API, run client-side code, and optionally show an interactive widget.
* **Suggested messages**: Show suggested replies based on the conversation.
* **Slack**: Send notifications and updates to your Slack channels.
* **Web search**: Give your agent real-time web search to answer questions with live data.
* **Custom button**: Add buttons that trigger your own links and redirects.

<Note>
  Note that you can create more than one action of the same type.\
  Example: Escalations on your website and Escalations on Instagram, in case they need separate "when to use" rules or different data to collect from the user before opening the ticket.
