An AI sales manager and one inbox for Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and Telegram. Chatomate answers customers in 6–7 seconds in Tajik, Russian and English, understands voice messages and payment receipts, collects phone numbers and passes hot leads to managers.
Production database, all customers and channels, as of 7 October 2026. Figures are aggregated and anonymised.
The challenge
In Central Asia most sales happen in Instagram Direct and messengers — and 54% of customer messages arrive between 18:00 and 09:00, when managers are offline. Shops lose leads at night, switch between several apps and keep no record of conversations, payments or deals.
Our solution
Chatomate brings four channels into one window and answers customers with an AI agent trained on the business’s own sales script and knowledge base. The agent leads the conversation to payment: quotes a price when asked, sends videos, reads the receipt and asks for a phone number. Under Instagram and Facebook posts it replies to comments and moves people to Direct. Hot leads go to managers in Telegram, deals move through a CRM pipeline, and broadcasts and drip sequences bring customers back. It runs in the browser and in a mobile app, with plans paid in somoni via Alif and SmartPay.

AI sales manager
Works from your script and knowledge base: PDF and DOCX files, website pages, product catalogue
Replies in the customer’s language: Tajik, Russian, English and 43 more
Transcribes voice messages; reads the amount, bank and date on receipts and spots duplicates
Collects the phone number, creates a call request and hands the chat to a person when needed
Follows up with silent customers, respecting quiet hours and the promised payment date
Steps back while a manager is typing; dialogue simulator to test before launch
Recognises customers who have already paid — by receipt, form, label or call outcome — and switches from selling to support
Asks the script’s questions (budget, for example) and sends the owner a daily report at a set hour: how many answered, which option they chose and how many of them bought
Exclusion list: the bot never replies to family and friends
Comment auto-replies
Reply under the post and a message in Direct — by keywords or to any comment, typo-tolerant
Follower check: materials go only to followers of the account
Rules for all or selected posts, stories and Direct; “one reply per person” mode
Moderation: hide or delete comments by words; ad copies of posts are linked automatically
Live chat, CRM and receipts
All four channels in one list, with the CRM card next to the conversation
Just like WhatsApp: delivered and read ticks in WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook, voice notes with a waveform and playback speed, quoted replies, reactions, deleted and edited messages
Inside a chat: pinned messages, search, a photo and file gallery; every form and receipt of the customer opens right from the chat; the customer sees “typing…” while an operator writes
Bot pause per chat, handover to a person, operator assignment, roles and permissions
Kanban pipelines: deals are created from conversations and move through stages automatically
Call requests reach managers in a Telegram bot, with escalation and quiet hours
“Will pay by…” dates with reminders; receipts log: amount, bank and operation number are read from the photo, the same receipt from the same customer counts as one payment, someone else’s is flagged as a repeat
Forged-receipt protection: Dushanbe City Bank and Alif number operations in sequence, so a receipt with an edited date or a layout the bank never uses is marked “Suspicious receipt” — the bot holds back the form and the group link until a manager checks the payment
Broadcasts, flows and forms
Broadcasts in Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and Telegram by tags and CRM stages; WhatsApp templates with variables in the header, body and buttons
Drip sequences with delays and conditions; calendar of scheduled sends and posts
Visual flow builder for all four channels: buttons, branches, delays, conditions, actions
In-chat forms: Telegram Mini App, WhatsApp Flows, web forms; growth links and QR codes
Registration after payment: the form is tied to the customer’s receipt, one-time personal links and shared group links, Excel export of registrations
Mobile app (iPhone)
All chats from the four channels in one list, messages arrive instantly; a push only when nobody has answered the customer yet
Voice notes, photos, videos and files; after WhatsApp’s 24 hours — sending by template
A phone number in a chat: call, or write on WhatsApp or Telegram in one tap
Call requests, receipts log, customer forms, CRM, broadcasts, auto-replies and store — on the phone
Works on a weak connection: the latest data opens from the phone’s memory
Interface in Russian, Tajik and English
Store, analytics and platform
Product catalogue, product cards in chat, cart and checkout; WooCommerce integration
AI-agent funnel: dialogues, contacts, receipts and AI spend; reports on comments, broadcasts and deals
Dashboard: new leads and money received by receipts for the chosen period
Plans in somoni via Alif and SmartPay; sign-in via e-mail, Google, Apple or SMS
Only official APIs: Instagram Graph, Messenger, WhatsApp Cloud API, Telegram Bot API
Database backups; monitoring of channels and AI models with alerts every 10 minutes
Every account’s data is isolated; staff have their own permissions, and a blocked member loses access at once
