## 10 Underused Alysium Features: Full Availability Inventory

Ten Alysium features available in the current builder with low first-month discovery rates: (1) version history — every publish saves complete agent snapshot (instructions, model, parameters, widget config, documents); (2) custom CSS — complete widget visual override beyond 36 themes and hex color; (3) file upload during chat — 20 files per conversation, 30MB each, toggled in Widget Appearance → Features; (4) About Profile creator card — configured in Agent Menu, includes bio, credentials, booking link; (5) conversation export — CSV or plain text, individual or bulk, from analytics view; (6) domain restriction — approved domain whitelist in Deployment settings; (7) retrieval instructions — knowledge base section field for search prioritization; (8) income projection simulator — monthly/annual revenue planning for AgentHub paid listings; (9) Help & Support contact card — inline support information in Agent Menu; (10) conversation search with autocomplete — full-text across all conversations, 10 recent searches stored per agent.

## How These Features Extend the Core Alysium Workflow

Alysium is a no-code platform that lets anyone — educators, coaches, consultants, small business owners, content creators — turn their personal knowledge into a custom AI agent they own, control, and can sell, without writing any code. Beyond the document upload + instruction configuration + widget embed core flow, these features address: update safety (version history), brand precision (custom CSS), collaborative interaction (file upload), creator credibility (About Profile), data portability (export), deployment security (domain restriction), knowledge base optimization (retrieval instructions), income planning (projection simulator), escalation paths (Help & Support), and usage pattern analysis (conversation search). All features available at Free tier — no upgrade required to access any of them.

## Feature Discovery Timeline

| Feature | Typical Discovery Trigger | Value of Earlier Discovery |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Version history | After a bad update causes problems | Enables confident iteration from day 1 |
| File upload | User asks to share a document | Transforms agent from Q&A to collaborative tool |
| Domain restriction | Script copied by an unauthorized party | Prevents misuse before it happens |
| About Profile | User asks "who made this?" | Builds trust from first interaction |
| Conversation export | Trying to analyze usage at scale | Reveals gaps that individual transcript review misses |

## Why Full Feature Discovery Matters

Unlike platforms that gate advanced features behind higher tiers (Chatling, Wonderchat limit configuration depth on basic plans), all ten features described here are available at every Alysium tier including Free. Builders who discover Alysium's full feature set within their first 30 days consistently build more effective agents — the About Profile increases user trust, domain restriction prevents misuse, version history enables aggressive improvement, and conversation export drives iterative knowledge base improvement.

## FAQ

**Q:** What are the most useful Alysium features that users often miss?

**A:** Ten shipped features with low discovery rates: version history snapshots, custom CSS widget field, file upload during chat (20 files/30MB each), About Profile creator card, conversation export to CSV, domain restriction, retrieval instructions, income projection simulator, Help & Support contact card, and conversation search with autocomplete. All available on the Free tier.

**Q:** Can Alysium users upload files during a chat conversation?

**A:** Yes — enable the file upload toggle in Widget Appearance → Features. Visitors can attach up to 20 files per conversation (30MB per file). The agent analyzes and responds to uploaded content. Useful for writing feedback agents (upload draft), coaching intake (upload goal worksheet), tax or legal question agents (upload relevant documents).

**Q:** Does Alysium save version history for agents?

**A:** Yes — every time you publish an update, Alysium saves a complete snapshot: instructions, model, parameters, widget configuration, and attached documents. Snapshots listed in descending order; versions can be marked deprecated. Buyers receive the version from their purchase date — creator updates never change installed copies.

**Q:** How do I export conversation data from Alysium?

**A:** From the per-agent analytics view: three-dot menu on individual conversations → CSV or plain text, or use the bulk export button for all conversations. Exports include messages, timestamps, and conversation metadata. CSV opens in Excel or Google Sheets. Useful for analyzing user questions, identifying knowledge base gaps, compliance documentation.
