Copilot
Embed Scout agents on any website with Copilot, an embeddable chat widget.
Quick Start
- Create a Copilot in Scout Studio
- Attach it to a workflow
- Embed the widget on your website
Your users can now interact with your agent directly from your site.
Configuration
Copilot can be customized with the following attributes:
| Attribute | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
tts-enabled | Enable text-to-speech for assistant messages | false |
Text-to-Speech (TTS)
Copilot supports reading assistant messages aloud for accessibility. When enabled, a speaker icon appears next to each assistant message.
Enabling TTS
Add the tts-enabled attribute to your Copilot embedding code:
<scout-copilot
copilot-id="your-copilot-id"
tts-enabled="true"
></scout-copilot>How It Works
- Per-message control: Click the speaker icon on any assistant message to hear it read aloud
- One at a time: Starting a new message stops any currently playing message
- Locale-aware: Voice automatically matches your Copilot’s configured locale
- Keyboard accessible: Tab to the control and press Enter to play/stop
Browser Support
TTS uses the browser’s Web Speech API. Supported in:
- Chrome 33+
- Safari 7+
- Edge 14+
- Firefox 49+
If TTS is enabled but the browser doesn’t support it, the speaker control appears disabled with an accessible message.
Privacy
TTS runs entirely client-side. Message content is not sent to any third party for speech synthesis.
