When auto-replies are triggered
The AI Employee watches your unified inbox and responds when a new inbound message arrives that needs an answer. Common triggers include:- An incoming SMS from a customer or lead.
- A new email reply in a conversation thread.
- A message from a connected channel such as Facebook or Instagram (via Meta).
- A web-form lead that asks a question.
Replies consume AI credits. Each plan includes AI credits, and you can track usage in your account so you always know how much capacity you have.
What the AI uses to answer
The AI combines two sources to produce accurate, on-brand replies:Your Knowledge Hub
The Knowledge Hub is trained on your website, FAQs, services, and the facts you add about your business. This is how the AI knows your hours, service area, pricing approach, and how you describe what you do.
Handoff to a human
The AI is designed to know its limits. When a question falls outside what it can confidently answer, or when a customer asks for a person, the conversation is handed off to your team. You will see the conversation in your inbox so a team member can step in and reply directly. You can take over any conversation at any time, even when the AI is active. Once you start replying manually, you stay in control of that thread until you choose to let the AI resume.Handoffs are a feature, not a failure. They keep the AI from guessing on sensitive topics like complex pricing, disputes, or unusual job requests, and route those to a human instead.
Turning AI replies on or off per channel
You control where the AI Employee is active. You can enable automatic replies for some channels and keep others manual, so the AI handles routine SMS while your team owns email, for example.How do I disable the AI for one conversation?
How do I disable the AI for one conversation?
Take over the thread by replying manually. The AI steps back for that conversation while you are handling it.
Will the AI reply outside business hours?

Yes. The AI Employee works 24/7, which is the point: it captures and answers leads when your team is off the clock.
Can I review what the AI sends?
