Catch the chats your team left hanging

Every hour during opening times, WebRun signs in to Tidio, finds the conversations waiting longer than your reply target, opens a Trello card holding the visitor question and a drafted response for an agent to send, and messages the agent on duty in WhatsApp.

In short

How do I stop live chat conversations going unanswered?

WebRun checks Tidio every hour for conversations where the visitor spoke last and has waited past your reply target. It opens a Trello card holding the question, the page they were browsing, and a drafted reply marked unsent, then messages the agent on duty in WhatsApp.

  • Waiting visitors get picked up within the hour, not the next day
  • Agents open a card with the reply already written
  • No message reaches a visitor without an agent sending it

Questions, answered

Will it reply to visitors in the chat?

No. WebRun never sends a message to a visitor in Tidio. It writes a suggested reply into the Trello card and marks it unsent, so an agent reads it, edits it, and sends it in their own words.

What counts as a chat left hanging?

Any open conversation where the visitor spoke last and has waited longer than the reply target you set. Five minutes suits a live sales chat, and thirty minutes suits a slower support queue.

Does it run overnight and flood the board?

No. It runs on the hours you choose, usually your opening times, so chats that land at midnight are picked up by the first run of the morning rather than paging anyone at 3am.

Put this on autopilot.
