Seamless Live Chat Takeover for WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram!

Seamless Live Chat Takeover for WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram!

We’re excited to announce a major upgrade to our live chat experience—human agents can now seamlessly take over conversations from the AI across WhatsApp, Messenger, and Instagram!

🔥 What’s New?

Previously, WhatsApp’s AI integration restricted live interactions once a phone number was connected. Now, with this update, you can personally step in and handle complex customer queries across all three platforms!

💡 How It Works:

  • Live Chat Control – Select any conversation thread in the Live Chat dashboard.
  • AI Toggle – Disable the AI chatbot while engaging with the customer to prevent interruptions.
  • Direct Messaging – Your responses will be delivered straight to the customer’s app (WhatsApp, Messenger, or Instagram).
  • Offline Notifications – If the AI is disabled and you’re offline, you’ll receive an email alert with a chat link whenever a customer replies.

This update ensures a seamless handoff between AI automation and human support, giving your customers the best of both worlds! 🎉

🔥 Why It Matters

  • Personalized Experience – Suggestions adapt to the user’s latest query for a more natural conversation flow.
  • Increased Efficiency – Users can quickly select relevant questions instead of typing them out.
  • Higher Engagement & Conversions – Contextually appropriate options guide users toward meaningful interactions.
  • Seamless Updates – No need to manually update static question sets—our AI handles it dynamically!
  • Better User Experience – Minimize irrelevant or repetitive suggestions to keep conversations smooth.

🛠️ How to Enable?

💬 Where Will These Appear?
