Sendbird AI agent on SMS

“Hey, I need help”
That’s how most customer support conversations start. Simple, direct. But here is the problem - most support systems aren’t built for real conversations.
 Instead, you get a ticket. A number in a queue. Maybe an email response - only hours later. Maybe you get stuck in a chatbot loop, pressing buttons, just hoping to talk to someone who can actually fix the problem. 
We think there’s a better way. So we built an AI agent for SMS.
AI Agent on SMS
A fully automated customer service AI agent that texts like a human and solves your issue, end-to-end, over SMS. You send a message. That’s it. No apps. No waiting. No dead ends. Just a real and fluid conversation that gets things done.
Why SMS?
- Always accessible – The most universal support channel. No downloads. No internet required. 
- Preferred by modern customers – 82% of Millennials and 74% of Gen Z favor real-time, digital-first service (from source). 
- Feels natural – Customers reach out just like they would to a human—by sending a simple text. 
How it works
- Add a phone number. To add a phone number, talk to a Sendbird representative. We will assist you with adding a new phone number that the AI Agent will be using to communicate via SMS. 
- Activate SMS as a channel. Enable AI customer support on SMS and integrate it with your existing workflows. 

- Set up smart automation. View channel-specific messages sent from the AI Agent and configure automated flows, such as conversation auto-close time and messages sent once an AI SMS conversation closes. 

- Monitor and optimize performance. Filter and analyze AI SMS engagement, resolution rates, and CSAT scores. 

With an AI agent on SMS, businesses gain real-time support and actionable insights, and a frictionless way to engage with customers. Now available on Sendbird AI agent for customer service. Contact us to learn more or try our SMS AI agent demo.
