What is Autopilot?
Let WAzion automatically respond to your customers while you focus on other tasks.
Description
The Autopilot is a WAzion feature that allows the AI to automatically respond to your customers’ messages without you having to intervene manually. The AI follows the instructions you have configured in your prompt and responds consistently with the tone and style of your business.
Unlike a traditional chatbot with predefined responses, the Autopilot uses artificial intelligence to understand the context of each conversation and generate personalized responses.
CRITICAL REQUIREMENT
The Autopilot ONLY works while:
- Your computer is ON
- The Chrome browser is OPEN
- WhatsApp Web has an ACTIVE SESSION
- Do you have an INTERNET connection?
If you turn off the computer or close Chrome, the Autopilot STOPS immediately.
