Switch Conversation AI to Auto-Pilot Once Suggestive Mode Earns Trust

After Conversation AI proves itself in Suggestive mode, Auto-Pilot lets it reply and book appointments on its own, day or night.

Switch Conversation AI from Suggestive to Auto-Pilot

Once your AI bot earns trust in Suggestive mode, flip it to Auto-Pilot and let it reply and book appointments on its own.

Watch it on its own page, with the transcript.

Auto-Pilot is the second mode for Conversation AI. In Suggestive mode, the AI drafts a reply and a human approves it before it sends. In Auto-Pilot, the AI sends the reply itself, no approval step, and it can move a contact through your calendar booking flow without a team member touching the conversation.

This matters for after-hours leads. A prospect who texts in at 9pm gets an immediate, on-brand response and a booking link instead of waiting until morning. For a service business running on lead speed, that gap is often the difference between a booked job and a lead who texted three competitors next.

The catch: only flip a bot to Auto-Pilot after you have watched it handle real conversations in Suggestive mode for a while and trust its tone, its objection handling, and its booking logic. Auto-Pilot with an untested prompt means mistakes go out to leads unreviewed. Start narrow, one bot, one use case like appointment booking, before you widen it.

How to use it

  1. Open the bot in Conversations > Settings > Conversation AI
  2. Confirm the bot has run in Suggestive mode long enough to trust its replies
  3. Switch the bot's mode from Suggestive to Auto-Pilot
  4. Limit the first Auto-Pilot bot to one channel or one use case
  5. Review transcripts weekly to catch tone or booking issues early

Who it helps

Service businesses and agencies that get after-hours leads and want faster response without adding night staff.
