The **December 2024** release adds variants, which enable multi-site configuration with individual agents now able to access multiple partitioned Knowledge configurations. This release also refines ASR capabilities,
latency customization, and builder tools.

  <Accordion title="Multi-site config" icon="sitemap" id="multi-site-config">
    <Tip> Visit the full [variant management](/variant-management/introduction) page for details. </Tip>

    <img src="https://mintcdn.com/polyai/ZVzKq3G72RK1ScpE/images/release-notes/2412/variant-management.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=ZVzKq3G72RK1ScpE&q=85&s=db08f5e51819adae1d72d5ef02d326b9" alt="variants" width="2212" height="960" data-path="images/release-notes/2412/variant-management.png" />

    Use variants to manage [Knowledge](/managed-topics/introduction) content for multiple locations in a single agent, and use one agent to handle
    enquiries about a business with outlets in different timezones, legal jurisdictions, or tax codes.

    Each variant has content for custom attributes like phone numbers, addresses, and opening hours. You can use variants and variables in [SMS](/sms/introduction),
    [functions](/tools/introduction), and [Knowledge](/managed-topics/introduction) entries, with the `${variant_foo}` format:

    > Imagine you have an attribute `site_number`, your SMS content field would be:
    > `Please contact the office at ${variant_site_number}`

    <Tip>You can add logic to your [start function](/tools/start-tool) to direct the agent to likely variant Knowledge items
    based on phone number geolocation.</Tip>
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="ASR updates" icon="microphone" id="asr-updates">
    Use transcript corrections to aid agents in recognizing domain-specific terms, and avoid issues with homonyms like:

    * "I see you" for a hospital's ICU.
    * "Money" for an art museum dealing with works by Monet.
