Lead: Hi! Saw your post. Do you work with beginners?
AI Setter: Yes, it’s built for beginners. Can you train 3× a week?
Lead: Yes, evenings. I just keep quitting.
AI Setter: That’s what the coaching fixes. Quick call to plan it?
Fits: beginner, 3× a week · qualified
The gap after the auto reply
Your automation opens the chat. Who moves it forward?
A prospect sends three quick questions about fit. A generic auto reply misses the point. ManySetter picks a useful next step.
- Answer the question in context
- Ask one more useful question
- Book the call when your fit rule is met
- Hand the chat to a person
Manychat flow: Thanks for your message! We’ll reply within 24 hours.
Lead: Is it ok if I’m a total beginner?
Lead: And do you run evening sessions?
Manychat flow: Thanks for your message! We’ll reply within 24 hours.
- Update: No reply after 2 days

How it works
What happens after someone messages your Page
Manychat opens the chat. ManySetter carries it to a qualified next step.
Your Facebook Page
A message comes in.
An ad, a comment or a direct message starts your Manychat flow.
Your Manychat flow
Manychat opens the chat.
Your welcome message goes out. The prospect replies and the chat continues.
ManySetter
The setter understands.
It keeps the context and asks what your offer needs to know.
ManySetter and your team
The right next move.
Book the call, or hand off: the AI pauses while your team replies.
Human handoff
It knows when to hand off
Out of scope? It pauses, briefs your team and lets a person reply. No call gets forced.
Manychat flow: Want to see if coaching fits? Tell me your goal.
Lead: Get stronger. But I have a knee injury.
AI Setter: Injuries need a coach’s eye. I’m looping in Sam now.
- Update: Handed off to Sam · AI paused
Sam: Hi Alex, Sam here. Which knee, and since when?
Handed off · team alerted, AI paused
