Most of the value of reactivation isn’t the send — it’s what happens after. When a customer replies, the AI takes over the conversation and (ideally) books the lead, all without you doing anything.Documentation Index

What happens immediately on a reply
- Customer’s reply lands in your Inbox as a fresh conversation.
- The conversation is tagged with the originating campaign so you can attribute it later.
- The AI reads the reply in context: original send + reactivation campaign goal + your business profile.
- AI drafts and sends a follow-up reply — usually within 5–10 seconds.
- The conversation continues from there, normally.
What the AI tries to do
For a reactivation context, the AI is biased toward booking. If the customer says “yeah, I might have something for you,” the AI:- Asks clarifying questions about the job
- Offers calendar slots if you have a calendar connected
- Books the appointment and confirms
Reactivation attribution
We give each campaign a 7-day attribution window. If a recipient replies and books an appointment within 7 days of receiving the reactivation message, the booking is attributed to that campaign. You see the attribution on the campaign results page. This matters for ROI math: “I spent 30 minutes building this campaign, sent to 200 contacts, got 6 bookings within a week — averaging $X each — was it worth it?”Manually intervening
If the AI is mishandling a reactivation reply (or the customer is asking something the AI doesn’t know), take over the same way you would on any other inbox conversation: type a manual reply, or pause AI for that conversation. The campaign’s results aren’t affected by manual takeover — the booking still attributes if it happens.Replies from people NOT in the audience
Occasionally a customer who got an old reactivation message replies weeks later. Those replies still come into your inbox, but they’re not counted as campaign attribution (outside the 7-day window).STOP / unsubscribe
Customers can opt out of reactivation messages specifically by replying STOP. This adds them to your org’s opt-out list — they won’t get future reactivation messages, AI auto-replies, or any other business-initiated SMS from your number. They CAN still send you a regular text (which routes to the inbox like any inbound), and the AI can reply to that — STOP only blocks YOU initiating contact.Re-opting in
If a customer who STOPped wants back on the list, they can text START or UNSTOP. We honor it instantly and they’re eligible for future sends.Reading campaign results
The campaign detail page (after the send fires) shows:- Sent / Delivered / Failed breakdown
- Replied — count and conversations clickable to drill in
- Reactivated — replies that resulted in pipeline movement
- Opt-outs — anyone who STOPped during the window
