A question lands at 11:15 PM. It's answered in seconds.
ChatGenius knows your prices, hours and services because it read your website. When it doesn't know something, it tells you instead of guessing.

Then it books her in.
It checks your Google Calendar, offers times that are actually open and books the one she picks. No booking link to chase.
-
You wake up to the lead and the booking.
Her name, number and appointment are saved to your lead list automatically. You didn't type a word.

And it follows up when people go quiet.
Rob asked for a price and disappeared. ChatGenius checks back in while Instagram still lets it, and turns an almost-customer into a booking.

Testimonials
What founders are saying
Think of ManyChat on steroids with built-in AI. Plus, the pricing is so much better. At $30/month, this is totally affordable, that's just $1/day to have automations running for you 24/7.
I'm genuinely super impressed by the quality of the conversations and how natural the interactions feel. Every day, I discover more of the platform's potential, and honestly, I'm already recommending it to people around me.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is ChatGenius?
ChatGenius is an AI-powered chatbot by SumGeniusAI that automates Instagram DMs, Facebook Messenger, Telegram, and SMS conversations. ChatGenius understands context and responds naturally, qualifying leads, answering questions, and booking appointments 24/7. Plus a visual flow builder for multi-step DM automations.
How does ChatGenius automate Instagram DMs?
ChatGenius connects to your Instagram account through Meta's official API. When a follower sends a DM or comments on a post, ChatGenius reads the message, understands intent with AI, and replies instantly. You configure your business context once: services, pricing, FAQs and the AI handles every conversation automatically, including lead capture and appointment booking.
Does ChatGenius work with Facebook Messenger?
Yes. ChatGenius supports Facebook Messenger, Instagram DMs, Telegram, and SMS from a single dashboard. All conversations across platforms are managed in one place, and the AI responds consistently across every channel.
Does ChatGenius include content scheduling?
Yes. Content Studio lets you schedule and publish posts, reels, carousels, and stories to Instagram and Facebook, plus videos and photo posts to TikTok - all from one dashboard. It includes AI-powered caption generation (with one-click "Rewrite for TikTok"), hashtag research with real engagement data, a content calendar, and performance analytics. Available on Creator tier ($29/mo) and above.
Do I need to build flows or sequences?
No. ChatGenius does not require conversation flows or sequences. You provide your business information once and the AI generates natural, context-aware replies automatically. This is the core difference from flow-based tools like ManyChat, which require extensive setup and maintenance.
