AI Auto-Reply: inquiries get answered even while you sleep

When a buyer messages you on WhatsApp, AI replies automatically: introducing products, quoting prices, answering questions. No more staring at your phone — late-night inquiries, messages while you're driving, holiday questions, all get picked up instantly.

2 a.m. — AI is on duty

What it does for you

Hi!
Hello! 😊

Second-level response

AI replies the instant a message arrives — introduces products, gives price ranges, answers common questions. Response speed is competitiveness. Never make a buyer wait.

Adjustable reply style

Four styles — professional, friendly, concise, humorous — plus a warmth dial, so AI talks the way your team talks.

Knows your business better over time

AI answers from your own knowledge base: models, prices and MOQs come from the data you saved — never made up. Combined with chat style learning, replies sound more and more like you.

Knows when to stay quiet

For scenarios that don't need a reply (pure greetings, small talk with no buying intent), AI stays silent and skips them — it never spams your customers and gets you into trouble.

A real scenario

A Spanish customer at 2 a.m.

Lucia is in Madrid. It's 8 p.m. local time — exactly when she shops for suppliers after work. She sends an inquiry to your WhatsApp.

Without AI: you reply at 10 a.m. the next day. By then Lucia has already finished negotiating with someone else.

With AI: her questions are answered within 10 seconds — price range, stock, catalog, all delivered. When you wake up, the chat holds a clear, well-scoped inquiry, ready for quoting.

FAQ

Is AI's reply content controllable? Will it talk nonsense?
Controllable. AI answers based on the materials in your knowledge base (products, prices, FAQs) and never invents what isn't there. For pricing, it can give ranges only, leaving exact quotes to you.
Can I still reply myself after turning it on?
Any time. A message you send manually triggers human takeover automatically; AI stays out of the way during takeover. Takeover duration is configurable (2h, 6h, 24h or custom) — AI resumes duty when it ends.
How do I turn it on?
One switch inside the app. It genuinely tests the AI service status before enabling — the switch only takes effect when the check passes. Service hours are customizable too: AI works only when you want it to.

Let AI start standing guard for you tonight.
