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! 🎉
