Controlling the flow of conversations with bots allows for a more human touch in interactions. By incorporating natural delays into exchanges, enabling tailored interactions for specific use cases, and providing granular control over response timing, you can create a more engaging and realistic conversational experience.

⭐️Why Is This Feature Beneficial To Your Company?

  • Customer Experience: Improve the contact’s perception of your bot by adding natural spacing into conversations, creating a more human feeling in AI interactions.

  • Improved Customization: This gives you granular control over the finer details of the Conversation Bots including the timing and way they respond to messages.

  • Increased Efficiency: This gives the ability for the bot to collect all messages and respond to them in one go, creating a better conversation flow and reducing interactions.

⭐️How To Use Dropdown Icons in Navigation Menu?
