One thread. The whole customer story.
Work from the customer’s history
Open one customer thread to see their website form, emails, WhatsApp messages and connected calls. Private team notes keep the context ready for the next person who replies.
See where leads turn into business
You want the source and outcome of a lead recorded with the replies, so follow-up and reporting use the same history.
Include your website in the workflow
You want website forms and an AI website assistant feeding the inbox. The assistant needs Pro and uses the business’s AI allowance.
