🤖 SalesGPT - Open Source AI Agent for Sales

Our Vision | Features | Demos and Use Cases | Quickstart | Setup | Contact Us

This repo is an implementation of a context-aware AI Agent for Sales using LLMs and can work across voice, email and texting (SMS, WhatsApp, WeChat, Weibo, Telegram, etc.).

SalesGPT is context-aware, which means it can understand what stage of a sales conversation it is in and act accordingly. Morever, SalesGPT has access to tools, such as your own pre-defined product knowledge base, significantly reducing hallucinations.

Features

Contextual Understanding: Sales Stage Awareness

The AI Sales Agent understands the conversation stage (you can define your own stages fitting your needs):

• Introduction: Start the conversation by introducing yourself and your company.
• Qualification: Qualify the prospect by confirming if they are the right person to talk to regarding your product/service.
• Value Proposition: Briefly explain how your product/service can benefit the prospect.
• Needs Analysis: Ask open-ended questions to uncover the prospect's needs and pain points.
• Solution Presentation: Based on the prospect's needs, present your product/service as the solution that can address their pain points.
• Objection Handling: Address any objections that the prospect may have regarding your product/service.
• Close: Ask for the sale by proposing a next step.
• End Conversation: The user does not want to continue the conversation, so end the call.

Business & Product Knowledge:

• Reference only your business information & products and significantly reduce hallucinations!

Close sales:

• The AI Agent can actually close sales by generating Stripe payment link and closing orders from customers.

Automated Email Communication:

Architecture

Setup

Install

Make sure you have a python >=3.8,<3.12:

Create a virtual environment at a location on your computer. We use the generic "env" name for our virtual environment in the setup. You can rename this, but make sure to then use this name later when working with the environment (also rename the VENV variable in the Makefile accordingly to be able to use make commands successfully after cloning our repository):

For Windows:

• Open Command Prompt or PowerShell.
• Navigate to your project directory: cd path\to\your\project
• Create a virtual environment: python -m venv env
• Activate the virtual environment: .\env\Scripts\activate

For Mac:

• Open Terminal.
• Navigate to your project directory: cd path/to/your/project
• Create a virtual environment: python3 -m venv env
• Activate the virtual environment: source env/bin/activate

To deactivate a virtual environment after you have stopped using it simply run: deactivate

Clone the SalesGPT Github repository:

git clone https://github.com/filip-michalsky/SalesGPT.git

Navigate to the repository and in case you used a different venv name rename the VENV variable in the Makefile:

cd SalesGPT

If you simply want to work with SalesGPT as an end user without local changes you can install from PyPI using:

pip install salesgpt

If you want to work on your own version of SalesGPT or contribute to our open-source version install by activating your virtual environment as aforementioned and then run:

make setup

For more detailed installation steps along with the reasons for doing each please visit CONTRIBUTING.md

Finally, for use of SalesGPT create an .env file just as our .env.example and put your API keys there by specifying a new line just as we have done.

Run an Example AI Sales agent

Navigate into the SalesGPT directory:

cd SalesGPT

SalesGPT can be run in various ways, tailored to your preferences and setup. Below are the methods available:

1. Using Docker

For those who prefer containerization, Docker offers an isolated and consistent environment. Ensure Docker is installed on your system by following the official Docker installation guide.

To run SalesGPT with Docker, execute the following steps:

1. Start the Application with Docker Compose:

   Use the command below to start SalesGPT in detached mode:

   docker-compose up -d
   

   If you've made changes and want them to reflect, append --build to the command above.

2. Stopping the Application:

   To stop and remove all running containers related to SalesGPT, execute:

   docker-compose down
   

Troubleshooting:

• Clean Up Docker Resources: If you encounter errors, you can clean up Docker by removing all unused containers, networks, images, and volumes with caution:

  docker system prune --volumes
  

• Rebuild Without Cache: To rebuild and start the services afresh without using cache, run:

  docker-compose up -d --build --no-cache
  

After successful setup, access SalesGPT at localhost:3000/chat in your browser.

2. Direct User Interface Launch

If Docker is not part of your workflow, you can directly launch the SalesGPT user interface. Please refer to the README.md file in the frontend directory for instructions on setting up the UI locally.

3. Using the Terminal

For terminal enthusiasts or automation scripts, run SalesGPT with the following command: python run.py --verbose True --config examples/example_agent_setup.json

4. Running Only the Backend

For those who wish to integrate SalesGPT's backend with their own user interface or application, running only the backend is a straightforward process. This allows you to leverage the powerful features of SalesGPT while maintaining full control over the user experience.

To run only the backend of SalesGPT, follow these steps:

1. Start the Backend Service:

   Use the following command to start the backend service. This will initiate the server on port 8000 by default, making the API accessible:

   docker-compose up -d backend
   

   If you need to rebuild the backend image, perhaps after making changes, you can add --build to the command above.

2. Accessing the Backend:

   With the backend running, you can access the API endpoints at http://localhost:8000. Refer to the API documentation for details on available endpoints and their usage.

3. Stopping the Backend:

   To stop the backend service, execute:

   docker-compose stop backend
   

   If you wish to remove the backend container entirely, use:

   docker-compose down
   

This setup is ideal for developers looking to integrate SalesGPT's backend into custom applications or those who prefer to use a different frontend technology.

Test your setup

1. Activate your environment as described above. (run source env/bin/activate on Unix-like systems and .\env\Scripts\activate on Windows. Replace env with the name of your virtual environment)
2. cd SalesGPT If you haven't already navigated to the SalesGPT home directory
3. make test

All tests should pass. Warnings can be ignored.

Repair your setup

Regular updates are added to the SalesGPT repository. If your code is not working please check the current README file for possible changes in launch. With updates often extra environment variables are added, which are however required for certain functionality. Please check current .env.example file.

For any problems you can not solve please don't hesitate to reach out to our discord #support channel.

Uninstall SalesGPT

To delete the virtual environment you used for SalesGPT programming and your SalesGPT repository from your system navigate to the directory where you installed your virtual environment and cloned SalesGPT and run: make clean

Documentation

We leverage the langchain library in this implementation, specifically Custom Agent Configuration and are inspired by BabyAGI architecture.

LangSmith tracing

LangSmith is a platform for building production-grade LLM applications.

It lets you debug, test, evaluate, and monitor chains and intelligent agents built on any LLM framework and seamlessly integrates with LangChain, the go-to open source framework for building with LLMs.

LangSmith is developed by LangChain, the company behind the open source LangChain framework.

To switch on the LangSmith tracing you have to do the following steps:

1. Create a LangSmith account
2. Create an API key in settings
3. Add you API key and Project name from LangSmith account to .env file or run.py module
4. Switch on the "LANGCHAIN_TRACING_V2" setting in run.py to "true"
5. That's it. You'll get better understanding of your agents and chaing performance in LangChain admin panel.
