CHENNAI: Global software-as-a-service (SaaS) company Freshworks on Monday announced a partnership with Meta (formerly Facebook) where companies have increased customer retention by using Freshworks’ conversational AI bots to automate communication with buyers through WhatsApp, Instagram Messaging, and Facebook Messenger.
The Meta Business Messaging integrations with Freshworks’ CX and CRM products make customer and prospect engagement easy for support, sales and marketing teams.
With Freshworks AI-powered bots, businesses can tailor and automate messaging journeys for each channel, configure workflows across multiple channels or languages, and efficiently train bots with NLP learning capabilities, the company said in a statement.
