Teams for hand-overs

Group your people into teams — sales, billing, support — and the agent hands each conversation to the right one, respecting each team's hours and how many chats a person can take.

What shipped

  • Teams under Settings → Teams, with members, opening hours, a backup team and a message for when the team is away. The old Team tab is now Members.
  • On the agent's Team tab, pick which teams it can hand over to; the AI chooses the right one from the conversation.
  • Outside a team's hours the conversation goes to its backup team, if that one is open.
  • A chat limit per person. When everyone is full, the visitor waits in line and is told their place ("#2 in line") and when they move up.
  • A welcome menu on WhatsApp and Telegram after the first reply, or whenever the person types "menu".
  • In the Inbox: a team filter, a "My teams" view, team badges and moving a conversation to another team. Alerts go to that team's members.
  • Also in the API and MCP: /v1/teams and the team platform tools.
