This guide is for anyone who encounters a problem in Aivah. You will isolate the affected area, try one safe recovery at a time, and capture enough non-sensitive detail for support if the issue remains.
Before you begin
Record:
- The affected AI employee and workspace area.
- The approximate date and time.
- What you expected and what happened instead.
- The smallest set of steps that reproduces the issue.
- The visible status or error text, without copying secrets.
Do not repeatedly press a launch, run, generation, or payment action while its result is still pending. Repeated attempts can create duplicate work or make the original problem harder to diagnose.
Steps
1. Confirm the scope
Check that you are in the intended account, selected the correct Agent, and chose the correct date range, conversation, share, channel, or job.
2. Preserve the visible evidence
Write down the exact screen label, visible status, and approximate time. If you take a screenshot, remove private customer information and secret values.
3. Try the matching recovery below
Change one thing at a time. Refresh only after you have recorded the current state. For work that can send a message, make a payment, or change an outside system, use a controlled test.
4. Confirm the result in the relevant place
For example, confirm employee readiness in Agents, a conversation in the Playground, a lead or call in Insights, a job in Tasks, or a plan and balance in the account menu.
5. Contact support when the problem remains
Use the official Aivah contact page or email aivah@opinionai.ai. Include the non-sensitive details listed in Contact support.
Expected result
The affected feature returns to the expected visible state, or you have a reproducible issue report with the correct employee, workspace area, approximate time, and safe evidence.
Status meanings
For employee preparation:
- Pending or Processing means Aivah is preparing the employee or its sources. Wait and refresh later.
- Completed means the employee is ready for private testing, not automatically ready for public use.
- Failed means the employee or a source needs attention. Open details and use the relevant retry action.
For payments, Verifying payment means you should wait rather than repeat the purchase. Treat the purchase as complete only after verification succeeds and the plan or balance is visible.
Usage credit impact
Some recovery tests, manual runs, voice or content activity, and channel activity may use supported usage credits. This guide does not define a formula. Review the current balance and avoid unnecessary duplicate tests.
Information stored or shared
Diagnostic details can contain conversation text, lead information, call details, account email, or connected-service information. Send only the minimum needed to reproduce the problem.
Never send passwords, payment details, private connection values, pairing images, reset links, or full customer records.
Limits and permanent actions
- Employee, generation, payment, and connection states can take time to update.
- Some downloads include only displayed or loaded records.
- Running or deleting scheduled work can affect outside systems immediately.
- Conversation and account deletion are permanent in the current guidance.
- This article does not promise recovery of deleted data, a support response time, or an outcome for a third-party service.
Common problems and recovery
| Problem | What to try |
|---|---|
| You cannot sign in | Confirm the email, reset the password, complete email verification, and try again in the same browser. |
| Guided setup returns to the beginning | Confirm all required choices are selected and avoid choosing Launch more than once. If an employee may already exist, check Agents before retrying. |
| Employee remains pending or processing | Wait for large sources, refresh, then open details to check whether one source needs attention. |
| A source failed | Confirm access, size, and file condition; then retry that source or upload a clean replacement. |
| The employee gives a wrong or unsupported answer | Check whether the answer exists in approved sources, remove conflicting material, tighten instructions, and retest privately. |
| The employee guesses | Add an instruction to say when information is unavailable and define the human handoff. |
| The wrong employee answers | Start a new conversation, select the intended Agent, and retest. |
| A file message fails | Send one supported file with a written request and wait before sending another. |
| The microphone does not work | Allow microphone access, close other apps using it, check the selected input, and refresh the conversation. |
| Voice connects but no sound plays | Check speaker volume, browser sound permission, the selected voice, and other active audio sessions. |
| An Avatar or Character does not appear | Open Preferences, select an appearance and scene, and wait for loading to finish. |
| Generated content is missing | Check the Productivity gallery, AI Drive, and the source conversation. Refresh before starting a duplicate. |
| Studio Podcast has only one host | End the episode and restart after checking both Characters, voices, and response choices. |
| A shared link fails | Confirm the share exists, the employee is ready, and the correct link was copied. Test in a private browser window. |
| A lead is missing | Confirm the correct employee and date range in Insights → Leads, then check other pages. |
| WhatsApp pairing expired | Refresh the pairing image and scan the newest one from Linked Devices. |
| Slack does not respond | Confirm the connection is active, the assistant is in the intended channel, and the private values are current. |
| Phone does not answer | Confirm the number, provider connection details, voice, and call instructions, then make a controlled test call. |
| Memory search misses a result | Clear filters, search by meaning, review Sessions, and check another page. |
| A download has fewer records than expected | Check the current filters and page; some downloads include only displayed or loaded records. |
| Usage credits look low or unchanged | Refresh the balance, wait for recent activity to be recorded, and review billing before purchasing again. |
| Payment remains on verification | Do not pay again immediately. Refresh once, check the subscription or balance, then contact support with the approximate payment time. |
Next step
If the problem remains, contact support with a safe, reproducible report. For wrong answers or failed sources, continue with Manage, test, and improve an AI employee.
