The problem it solves

Customers message you on different apps at all hours, and keeping track of who said what across Telegram and WhatsApp is nearly impossible. Simple questions eat up time that could go toward messages that need a real person.

Who it fits

A business handling customer support or sales conversations over Telegram and WhatsApp.

How it works

  1. A customer sends a message on Telegram or WhatsApp
  2. The system looks up that customer's history in a spreadsheet
  3. AI drafts a personalized reply based on their past interactions
  4. The reply is sent back on the same platform, formatted appropriately
  5. Complex requests or orders are flagged and sent to a Slack channel for a person to handle
What you get

Messages answered instantly, tricky ones flagged for you

You get instant AI replies to Telegram and WhatsApp customers, with anything tricky flagged straight to your team on Slack.

What you get

An instant, personalized reply to the customer, plus a logged record of every conversation.

What you need

OpenAI, Telegram, WhatsApp Business, Google Sheets, and Slack accounts.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
