Automated Kik Stale Conversation Chasing

Every morning, WebRun checks Kik for conversations that have gone unanswered for over a day, logs each one to Airtable with the wait time, drafts a friendly nudge reply for review, and emails the support lead a short list of what needs sending.

In short

How do I chase unanswered Kik conversations automatically?

WebRun checks Kik every morning for conversations left unanswered over 24 hours, logs each one to Airtable with its wait time, and drafts a friendly nudge reply that stays unsent until a person reviews it. It then emails your support lead the full chase list, so stale conversations get handled instead of quietly aging out.

  • Stale conversations are caught within 24 hours
  • A ready-to-send reply is waiting for every stale chat
  • Support leads get a single daily chase list instead of hunting for gaps

Built for Customer support teams · Small business owners · Community managers · Bot and chatbot operators

Questions, answered

Will WebRun reply to customers on Kik without me?

No. It only drafts a nudge reply and leaves it unsent in Kik. A person on your team reviews and sends it.

What counts as a stale conversation?

Any conversation with no reply from your side for more than 24 hours. Each one is logged with exactly how long it has been waiting.

Who gets the morning chase list?

Your support lead, by email, with every stale conversation and its draft reply ready to review in one place.
