Conversations

Concept

A conversation is the complete interaction between a visitor and your agent — from the first greeting to the outcome.

How a conversation flows

  1. 1

    A visitor lands on your site or messages your channel

  2. 2

    The agent opens or joins the conversation

  3. 3

    The visitor asks questions

  4. 4

    The agent replies from your trained knowledge

  5. 5

    Based on engagement and intent, an action is triggered

Message-based triggers

Botvee counts messages to decide when features appear, so nothing interrupts too early.

3–5 messages → lead form
5+ messages → talk to human
6+ messages → feedback

Intent detection

The agent reads meaning, not just message count.

Visitor: “I’m interested in your service.” → Agent: “Would you like to book a quick call?”

  • Detects buying signals and pricing interest
  • Asks the right follow-up question
  • Fires booking or lead capture on its own
  • Recognises frustration and offers a human

Where conversations live

  • All Chats — every conversation across every channel, searchable and filterable by agent
  • Inbox — only the ones waiting for a human right now
  • Conversation detail — full transcript, visitor profile, lead data, AI summary and CSAT

How long they are kept

Access to history depends on your plan — the last 30 conversations on trial, up to the last 2,000 on Pro. See Plans & Limits.

Best practices

  • Do not trigger lead capture before message 3
  • Keep replies short and human
  • Read your Most Asked Questions weekly and train the gaps
  • Test flows as a real visitor, not as the owner
