Customer memory
Overview
Setell remembers how each customer likes to work — what you charge them, how they want quotes laid out, and how they like to hear from you. Next time that customer comes up, Boxx already knows. You stop re-explaining the same regular every quote.
What Boxx remembers
Three kinds of things, kept per customer:
- Pricing — the rates and discounts you tend to give them. "Northwest Fabrication always gets the volume rate over 100 units."
- Preferences — how they want quotes built. "Always wants a PO number on quotes over $5,000."
- Communication — tone and timing. "Prefers a heads-up email before the formal quote."
How memory builds itself
- When a customer accepts a quote, Setell quietly looks at the deal and saves what it learned — no work from you.
- It updates what it knows instead of piling up duplicates. Stale patterns get replaced as a customer's habits change.
- The more you quote a customer, the sharper it gets — usually within their first handful of jobs.
Tell Boxx something to remember
You don't have to wait for it to learn on its own. If you know a fact about a customer, just say it:
- Open Boxx (the bubble, or press ⌘J).
- State the fact plainly. For example: "Remember that Northwest Fabrication always wants a PO number."
- Boxx saves it to that customer and uses it from then on. It confirms in the chat.
See what Boxx knows
Ask anytime: "What do you know about Northwest Fabrication?" Boxx reads back what it has on file — pricing patterns, preferences, communication style — so you can check it or add to it.
What happens next
- The next time you quote or email that customer, Boxx applies what it knows — the right rate, your preferred quote layout, the right tone — without you asking.
- Memory is private to your account. It's yours, scoped to your shop, never shared.
Troubleshooting
- Boxx doesn't seem to know a customer yet. It learns from accepted quotes, so a brand-new customer starts blank. Tell Boxx what you know, or quote them a couple of times and it catches on.
- A saved fact is out of date. Just tell Boxx the new version — "Northwest Fab dropped the PO requirement" — and it replaces the old note.
- It saved something I didn't mean. Ask what it knows, then tell it the correct fact; the new one takes over.

FAQ
- Do I have to set this up? No. It builds from your accepted quotes automatically. Telling Boxx facts directly just speeds it up.
- Does it remember different things for the same customer on different jobs? Yes — pricing can differ by the kind of work, and Setell keeps that straight.
- Is my customer data shared with anyone? No. Memory is scoped to your account only.
- Can I see everything it's stored? Yes — ask "what do you know about [customer]?"
