Never Miss a Message

The Sakura Auto-Responder uses AI to automatically reply to incoming SMS and WhatsApp messages when your team is unavailable.

How It Works

  • When a customer sends a message, the AI analyzes the content
  • It checks your knowledge base for relevant information
  • It uses contact memory to personalize the response
  • A contextual reply is generated and sent automatically

What the AI Knows

  • Knowledge Base: Your custom entries (products, pricing, FAQs)
  • Contact Memory: Previous interactions, preferences, and details about each customer
  • Sakura Services: Built-in knowledge about SMS, WhatsApp, hosting, payments

Auto-Learning

The AI automatically suggests new knowledge base entries when it discovers useful Q&A patterns. These suggestions are reviewed and added by your admin team.

Language Support

The auto-responder detects the customer's language (English or Swahili) and responds in the same language automatically.

Important: The auto-responder is a complement to human support, not a replacement. Configure it to escalate complex issues to your team.
