AI Studio: Migrate Pre-SSR Projects

TL;DR

Existing AI Studio projects created before server-side rendering (SSR) can now be migrated to SSR. Users with pre-SSR projects should review their AI Studio settings to migrate.

Who this affects

This affects users with existing AI Studio projects that were created prior to the introduction of server-side rendering. If all your AI Studio projects were created after SSR was implemented, this update does not affect you. HighLevel has not confirmed who specifically is affected, for example by plan level or sub-account type.

What changed

Existing AI Studio projects that predate server-side rendering (SSR) can now be migrated to SSR. The migration process is initiated directly from the project settings within AI Studio. Users need to access their project settings, locate the migration option, and follow the provided steps to complete the migration. HighLevel has not confirmed any limits, plan gating, or rollout status for this feature.

Where to find it

This feature is located within AI Studio. Navigate to AI Studio > Project Settings. The option to migrate will be found there.

How agencies will use this

An agency might have an older client using an AI Studio project that was set up before SSR was available. This project handles lead qualification using AI, where the AI interacts with prospects before handing them off to a salesperson. Prior to this update, this older project would run on the client-side, potentially leading to slower response times or less efficient processing compared to SSR. Now, the agency owner can go into the specific client's sub-account, navigate to AI Studio, select the relevant project, and access its settings. From there, they will see the option to migrate the project to SSR. After migration, the agency expects the AI to operate more efficiently, potentially reducing latency in interactions and improving the overall user experience for the client's leads.

Our take

This is a major quality-of-life update for agencies managing older AI Studio projects. It addresses a specific technical limitation by allowing older projects to benefit from newer infrastructure. While significant for those with pre-SSR projects, it is a backend improvement rather than a new client-facing feature. It streamlines operations for existing users, but doesn't introduce a new capability or service offering.
