AI and Manual Replies
AI replies are marked with an AI badge. If you send a manual reply, the AI pauses for that conversation temporarily and resumes after inactivity.
Customer Details Panel
View and manage:
- Name and phone number
- Labels - View and manage labels for this contact.
- Conversation History - Past messages with this customer.
- Memory - What the AI remembers about this customer (if AI Memory is enabled).
- Actions - Clear memory, set labels, or add information to the knowledge base.
You can add messages directly to your AI Knowledge from the Inbox. If a customer asks something useful, save that info for the AI to learn.
Conversation Costs
Token usage is now visible per conversation. You can:
- See how many tokens each conversation has used.
- View the split between BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) tokens and Platform tokens.
- Open a usage modal with date filtering to analyze costs over a specific period.
Wait-for-Reply
The AI waits for customers to finish typing before responding. If a customer sends multiple messages in a row, the AI waits for a pause before replying - so it doesn't interrupt them mid-thought.
