Tools Calling by the LLM
We are excited to announce a powerful new capability in the SentiOne Automate "LLM Say" block: Tool Calling. This feature transforms your conversational AI by allowing it to interact with external systems and data sources in real-time, making your bots more capable and intelligent than ever before.
The primary benefit of tool calling is the ability to move beyond static, pre-trained knowledge and access live information. This means your bots can now provide up-to-the-minute responses and perform actions that require real-world data. By connecting to your internal or third-party APIs, your AI can now seamlessly integrate with your existing business processes.
Here are some potential use cases that tool calling unlocks:
- E-commerce: Instantly check product availability, track orders, and process returns by connecting to your inventory and logistics systems.
- Customer Support: Fetch customer details from your CRM to provide personalized assistance or create support tickets in your helpdesk software directly from the conversation.
- Travel & Hospitality: Check flight statuses, hotel availability, and make reservations by integrating with booking and scheduling platforms.
- Finance: Provide real-time stock quotes, account balances, or transaction histories by securely connecting to financial data APIs.

Even complex processes can now be defined with just a few blocks
Please note that this feature is very generic. When you define tools, the LLM will try to use them as it will become the aim of the conversations. It can also be used for example to provide next generation of call steering, intent detection and variable extraction.
💊 IMPROVEMENTS
- [Flow] Quick copy and paste functionality to copy output definitions between different blocks

- [Analytics] More date ranges in date picker for quicker searching in past conversations
- [Debugging] When an error occurs in admin panel, you can now easily copy the details and pass it for debugging
- [Flow] Automatic suggestions for Command names and memory values should decrease the need to lookup function names docs and minimize risk of making typos
🐛 FIXES
- [Jobs] CleanJobs job did not end
- [Logging] We do not mark race condition in saving messages as ERROR anymore
- [Autocorrect] Fix for autocorrect engine bug that would change correct named entities written in small caps
📚 DOCS
- [Dialer] Preparing file with contacts
