An Instagram AI agent is an assistant that answers your account's direct messages in seconds, at any hour, with your catalog and each customer's profile. It understands the posts, reels and stories people share with you, turns the conversation into an order and hands off to your team when needed.

## What the AI agent does on your Instagram

- **Answers direct messages** In seconds and at any hour, with your catalog, prices and policies, and the source of every answer.
- **Understands what people share** Posts, reels, story mentions and images sent to you reach the agent with their content.
- **Sells in the chat** It recommends, builds the cart and sends the link to your store's checkout.
- **One customer profile** What a customer said on Instagram, the agent remembers on WhatsApp and on every channel.
- **Hands off to a person** When needed, the conversation reaches your team with full context.
- **Measures what it sells** Conversions flow back to Meta Ads so your ads learn.

## From the ad or the story to the sale

- **The message arrives.** From an ad, a story, a post or a direct message.
- **Answers and qualifies.** The agent works out what the customer is after and places them in your funnel.
- **Builds the order.** It recommends from your real catalog and creates the cart.
- **Follows up.** If the customer doesn't finish, the follow-up goes out on its own, on the channel they prefer.

- **No-code automations** Follow-ups and reminders that fire on their own after every conversation.
- **Campaigns with a control group** Every campaign measured against a control group to know what it really sold.

## Frequently asked questions about the Instagram AI agent

- **How is it different from a WhatsApp chatbot?** A chatbot follows a decision tree. Elocuenti is infrastructure: our AI learns from every customer in every conversation, personalizes the next one to them and acts in your systems until the sale or the payment is closed.
- **What happens when the AI can't answer?** It says so and hands the conversation to someone on your team with full context. Then the question goes into self-learning so there's an answer next time.
- **Does it connect to my ERP, store or CRM?** Shopify, HubSpot, Yango Fleet, Alegra and Siigo connect natively. Any other system you already use connects too, and the agent queries it in real time.
- **How is Elocuenti billed?** Other platforms charge per message or for AI usage. With Elocuenti you pay one base price a month for a quota of AI-handled customers: every customer the AI replies to or follows up with during your billing cycle counts once, whether they send one message or a hundred. Customers only your team talks to don't count. Meta's fees for templates and messages are paid by your business directly to Meta, separately from the plan.
- **How is data protected?** We encrypt data in transit and at rest, isolate each business's data and control access by role. Payments are processed by the payment gateway: we don't store card data.
