Can one AI agent answer every channel?
Yes. WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, and the web chat widget are answered by the same agent, reading the same catalogue and writing to the same order and customer records.
Do I have to configure the agent separately per channel?
No. The business setup, catalogue, and conversation behaviour are configured once. Connecting a channel is a credential step, not a second configuration of the agent.
Does a customer who switches channel start over?
Customer records are shared, so a customer the business already knows is recognised. Message history is per conversation, so a customer moving from Instagram to WhatsApp starts a new thread against the same customer profile.
Do ordering and booking steps behave the same everywhere?
The ordering, booking, confirmation, and cancellation steps follow one shared contract with stable choice ids across channels. How the buttons are drawn differs per platform, because each messaging platform offers different message types.
What does it take to add a channel?
Connecting the account. WhatsApp uses the Meta Cloud API; Instagram and Messenger connect through Meta; Telegram uses a bot session; web chat is a script snippet with a public key and an allowed origin.
