Business AI Texting

Your business number texts back.

Customers text your line. Your AI agent answers from your knowledge base — hours, pricing, services, directions — in your team's voice, around the clock. Anything it shouldn't handle, it hands to a person.

30 AI credits per text · included credits on every plan · no extra number, no second app

Why this isn't a chatbot

Grounded. Human-ready. Compliant by construction.

✦

Grounded, not guessing

Every reply comes from the articles you allowed. If your knowledge doesn't cover it, the AI says your team will confirm — and hands off. It never invents a price or a policy.

1

A person, one tap away

Refund? Complaint? "Can I talk to someone?" The AI steps back and flags the thread for your team. Anyone on your team can say I'll take it from here on any conversation.

✓

Compliant by construction

Replies go out from your own registered business line, respect STOP / HELP keywords, and are off until your texting registration is live. Nothing leaves that your team can't see in the Inbox.

How it works

Teach it. Turn it on. Step in whenever.

1

Teach it

Import your website or write a few articles in Knowledge. Choose which ones the texting AI may read — per article, even per phone number.

2

Turn it on

Flip AI texting on for your agent and pick the numbers it answers. Calls can keep ringing your team; texts get answered.

3

Let it text

Inbound texts get a reply in seconds, in your tone, marked ✦ in your Inbox so everyone knows.

4

Step in whenever

Take over any conversation with one tap; hand it back when you're done. The AI goes quiet in that thread only.

Honesty first

What it will and won't do

It will
  • Answer hours, services, pricing, location, availability — from your knowledge
  • Match your team's tone (it learns from the replies you've already sent)
  • Introduce itself as your business's AI assistant when asked
  • Hand off and flag the thread when a human is needed
  • Show you every reply, and every non-reply with the reason
It won't
  • ×Make up facts your knowledge doesn't contain
  • ×Pretend to be a person
  • ×Ask for card numbers, IDs, passwords or one-time codes
  • ×Promise a booking, payment or callback time it can't back up
  • ×Talk over STOP / HELP keywords, over a teammate who already replied, or over you

Same Ody, same line

Built on the same Ody your team already uses

One Inbox

AI replies land in the thread your team works from, on web, iPhone and Android — attributed ✦ so nobody confuses an AI reply with a colleague's.

One knowledge base

The same articles power your AI receptionist's calls, the inbox's suggested replies, and now automatic replies. Fix it once, it's fixed everywhere.

Meet the AI receptionist

One number

No short code, no "texting number" that isn't the number on your door. Replies go out on your registered business SMS line.

Business texting & 10DLC

Per-line control

Different agent per number, or none — the sales line can text while the main line stays human.

See phone numbers

Who it's for

The same buyer as the AI receptionist — the texting half of the same promise.

Owner-operated and small-team businesses that already get more texts than they can answer: dental and medical offices, salons, contractors, property managers, auto shops, realtors, restaurants with catering.

The enemy is the unanswered text — the 11 pm "are you open tomorrow?" that becomes a booking with the competitor who replied. Secondary enemy: the generic chatbot that confidently makes things up and never lets a human in.

AI credits

30 AI credits per text.

Every plan includes monthly AI credits; a one- or two-sentence reply is one text (30 credits). Only replies that actually send are charged — skipped texts and hand-offs are free. Need more? Buy a credit pack or turn on auto-recharge.

FAQ

Business AI Texting, answered.

Where does the AI get its answers?
Only from your knowledge base — the articles you allow for texting, per article and even per phone number. If a fact isn't there, the AI says your team will confirm and hands off. It never invents a price or a policy.

Mas mahusay sa iyong stack

Ang mga taong tinetext mo ay nasa iyong email tools na.

I-import ang listahan, pagkatapos ay idagdag muli ang mga tumatawag at nagte-text na pumayag. Ang mga pinangalanang SMS thread ay nagsisimula sa mga contact. Ang mga listahan ay lumalaki mula sa mga taong talagang sumagot.

KlaviyoMarketing

Ang isang nagte-text na pumayag ay maaaring makapasok sa isang Klaviyo flow.

I-import ang mga profile ng Klaviyo upang ang mga SMS thread ay magpakita ng pangalan. Ibalik ang mga tumatawag na pumayag, at magpadala ng resulta ng tawag bilang isang Klaviyo event upang ang mga flow ay tumakbo batay sa nangyari.

MailchimpMarketing

Idagdag ang mga tumatawag na pumayag sa audience na pinapadalhan mo na.

I-import ang isang Mailchimp audience bilang mga contact ng Ody, pagkatapos ay idagdag ang mga tumatawag at nagte-text na pumayag sa audience na pipiliin mo. Naka-on ang double opt-in bilang default.

Ang mamimiling nagte-text ay ang mamimiling nasa iyo na.

I-import ang mga customer ng Shopify upang ang mga papasok na text ay magbukas ng pinangalanang thread, hindi isang hindi kilalang numero na nagtatanong tungkol sa isang order.

Ang mga automation ay maaaring tumakbo sa mga taong talagang sumagot.

I-import ang mga contact ng ActiveCampaign, at idagdag muli ang mga tumatawag at nagte-text na pumayag (na-upsert sa pamamagitan ng email) upang hindi manghula ang mga automation.
