Lead Management

Lead Management allows your chatbot to automatically detect potential customers and capture their contact information. The AI recognizes buying signals and guides visitors through a smooth lead capture process.

Enabling Lead Management

Requirements

Lead Management is available on:

  • Professional plan and above
  • All Agency plans

How It Works

  1. AI Detection: The chatbot analyzes conversations for buying intent signals
  2. Confirmation: When signals are detected, the bot asks if the visitor wants to be contacted
  3. Data Collection: Upon confirmation, the bot collects configured lead fields one by one
  4. Notification: Team members receive instant push and email notifications

Configuring AI Lead Detection

Enable/Disable Detection

You can control automatic AI detection for each chatbot individually:

  1. Go to DashboardLeadsSettings
  2. Select the AI Recognition tab
  3. Enable or disable Automatic Lead Detection

Set Sensitivity

Detection sensitivity determines how clear buying intent must be:

LevelDescriptionRecommended for
HighDetects even slight buying signalsMore leads, aggressive lead generation
MediumBalanced detection (default)Most use cases
LowOnly on very clear interestHigh lead quality, less volume

Lead Detection Signals

The AI recognizes these buying intent signals:

Signal TypeExamples

Demo requests"Can I see a demo?", "I'd like a trial"
Implementation questions"How does integration work?", "What's the setup process?"
Competitor comparison"How do you compare to X?", "Why should I choose you?"
Business use casesSpecific questions about their use case
