# Create curated responses

Common or recurring questions from customers can be addressed with hard-coded answers to provide a precise response rather than an AI-generated one when very specific wording is required. The system identifies when a query matches a curated response and provides that as the answer.

## Add a new response

1. In the *Curated Responses* tab, click *New Response*.

3. Enter the question and the exact answer.
4. *Save*.

### Curated Responses from Chat Desk

Curated responses are also automatically created from [Chat Desk](https://guides.clickatell.com/chat-desk/agent-desk/agent-assistant). When an agent selects a [suggested response](https://guides.clickatell.com/chat-desk/agent-desk/agent-assistant), the answer is added as a curated response in the Clickatell AI Portal. From here, the response can be edited or deleted, and will only be used after it is synced.

These curated responses are used when a query that matches them come in i.e. if a question comes in that matches a response, the response will be used rather than the system generating a new one. You can review and edit curated responses at any time to improve consistency and accuracy.
