How It Works

From blank canvas to live automation in four steps

1

Drag Nodes onto the Canvas

Choose from 12 node types — triggers, messages, conditions, actions, AI steps — and drag them onto the visual canvas. Or describe your flow in English and let GPT-5 build the entire graph.

2

Connect Branching Paths

Wire output ports to create branching logic. Button responses route users down different paths. Conditions check follower status, collected data, or lead score to personalize the experience.

3

Test in the Simulator

Preview the full conversation before going live. Walk through every branch, verify variable collection, and confirm API calls work — all without sending a single real message.

4

Activate and Monitor

Flip the switch to go live. Real-time analytics show session counts, completion rates, and a drop-off heatmap that highlights exactly where users abandon the flow.

Key Features

AI-native automation that ManyChat charges extra for

AI Flow Generator

Describe your flow in English, GPT-5 builds the entire node graph. “Create a lead capture flow that asks for email and checks if they follow us.” ManyChat charges $29/mo for this — it’s included free.

AI Intent Triggers

Trigger flows based on what the user means, not exact keywords. GPT-5 nano detects intent like “pricing inquiry” or “booking request” in real time. ManyChat charges $29/mo for this — it’s included free.

AI Step Node

Hand part of the conversation to GPT-5 for open-ended Q&A, then return to the flow. Bounded turns, variable extraction, and full context awareness. ManyChat charges $29/mo for this — it’s included free.

Follower Gate + Conditions

Branch on follower status, lead score, platform, or collected data. Gate promos to followers only with automatic recheck loops. Personalize every path based on who the user is.

HTTP/Webhook Node

Call external APIs mid-flow: CRM updates, Zapier/Make.com triggers, payment verification. Supports GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE with custom headers, JSON body, and success/error routing.

Drop-off Heatmap Analytics

See exactly where users abandon flows. Red/amber/green glow on canvas nodes shows drop-off rates at every step. Optimize flows with data, not guessing.

Use Cases

Content Creator

Follower-Gated Promos

Comment PROMO triggers the flow. Condition node checks follower status — followers get a discount code instantly, non-followers get a “Follow us first” message with an automatic recheck loop.

Service Business

Automated Lead Qualification

Collect email via input node, then an AI Step qualifies budget and timeline with open-ended conversation. Qualified leads get routed to the booking node; others receive a resource link.

E-Commerce

CRM Integration via Webhook

Collect order info through the flow, POST it to your CRM or Zapier via the HTTP Request node. Success response confirms the order in-chat; error response routes to a fallback message.

Flow Builder Questions

What node types are available?+
12 types: Trigger, Send Message, Collect Input, Condition, Smart Delay, Action, AI Handoff, Go-To Flow, Randomizer, Book Appointment, AI Step, and HTTP Request. Each node has configurable properties and multiple output ports for branching logic.
Does the flow builder work on Telegram or SMS?+
No, flows are designed for Instagram and Facebook DMs where Meta's button templates work. Telegram and SMS messages are handled by the AI assistant separately.
Can I use AI and flows together?+
Yes. AI Step nodes let you embed bounded AI conversations inside flows. AI Handoff exits the flow and hands to your AI assistant. You can also use AI Intent triggers to start flows based on meaning, not exact keywords.
How does the AI Flow Generator work?+
Describe your flow in plain English (e.g., “Create a lead capture flow that asks for email and phone”). GPT-5 generates the complete node graph with connections. You can edit everything before activating.
What's the difference between ChatGenius flows and ManyChat?+
ChatGenius includes AI Step, AI Intent triggers, and AI Flow Generation free on all plans. ManyChat charges $29/month extra for each. We use flat-rate pricing instead of per-contact. And flows coexist with your AI assistant — you get both.
Can flows call external APIs?+
Yes. The HTTP Request node (Creator+ plans) supports GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE with custom headers, JSON body, and {variable} substitution. Response data is stored in flow variables for use in downstream nodes.
