Automated ManyChat Stale Conversation Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens ManyChat, scans Live Chat for conversations that have gone unanswered for more than a few hours, logs each one as a Trello card for the team, and drafts a WhatsApp follow-up message ready for a human to review and send.

In short

How do I stop leads going cold in my ManyChat inbox?

WebRun scans your ManyChat Live Chat every morning for conversations waiting more than a few hours for a reply, logs each one as a Trello card, and drafts a WhatsApp follow-up for the team to review. Leads stop going cold in the inbox, and every follow-up still goes out through a human, never sent automatically.

  • No lead waits more than a morning without someone knowing
  • The team works from a Trello list instead of scrolling the ManyChat inbox
  • Every follow-up is drafted and ready, but only a human sends it

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it message my leads directly?

No. WebRun only drafts a WhatsApp follow-up for each stale conversation. A team member reviews and sends it, WebRun never messages a contact on its own.

How does it decide a conversation is stale?

It compares the time since your last reply in ManyChat Live Chat against the wait threshold you set, and only flags conversations past that line.

What if I already replied after the check ran?

The Trello card is meant to be closed out once you reply. The next run only logs conversations still waiting in ManyChat.

Put this on autopilot.
