What Is Free—and What Requires an AI Customer Agent?
The free flow delivers the configured resource. AI capabilities handle open-ended replies, qualification, and the next conversation.
Deliver the freebie with preset steps
The Comment-to-DM flow runs your trigger, public reply, opening DM, email request, and delivery message.
- Trigger from the comment
- Collect the configured email
- Send the preset resource message
Continue beyond the preset flow
The AI agent can interpret open replies, answer questions, understand needs, and guide the next step.
- Answer follow-up questions
- Understand need and fit
- Recommend, book, or hand off
The distinction is simple: the automation delivers the promised freebie; the AI Customer Agent understands and continues the conversation.
