AI channels
Enable AI assistant to automatically respond to customers across your channels
What are AI channels?
AI channels allow your AI assistant to automatically respond to customer messages across multiple communication platforms, including email, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp (coming soon).
When enabled, AI provides instant responses to customer inquiries on these channels, helping you maintain consistent support coverage even when your team isn't available.
AI assistant can reply to customer questions from other channels, just as it does in your chatbox.
Why use AI channels?
AI channels help you:
Provide 24/7 customer support across all communication platforms
Reduce response time on social media and email
Maintain consistent brand voice across all channels
Capture more sales opportunities from social media interactions
Free up your team to focus on complex customer needs
