WhatsApp + Instagram Automation Stack for Lead Capture and Instant Routing
Build a multi-channel AI automation stack across WhatsApp and Instagram with role-based routing and conversion-focused workflows.
WhatsApp + Instagram Automation Stack
Leads now arrive through multiple channels simultaneously. If your team treats each channel separately, response quality becomes inconsistent and conversion drops. A centralized AI workforce stack solves this with role-based routing.
Channel Behavior Differences
- WhatsApp: short, direct, quick qualification.
- Instagram DM: conversational but still CTA-focused.
Same business logic, different response style.
Architecture Blueprint
Inbound Layer
- Capture message payload
- Identify customer channel
- Normalize lead context
Routing Layer
- Route to Sales AI or Support AI
- Apply channel behavior rules
- Trigger escalation logic if needed
Data Layer
- Store conversation
- Update analytics
- Track lead stage progression
Required Integrations
- WhatsApp Cloud API token + phone number ID
- Instagram Graph API OAuth
- Webhook verification for both
Lead Routing Rules
Use deterministic routing:
- "pricing", "demo", "trial" => Sales AI
- "issue", "support", "problem" => Support AI
- Ambiguous query => qualification question first
Conversion Safeguards
- Never drop lead without next step
- Always log lead identifier
- Auto-escalate high-intent leads to human closer
Reporting Dashboard
Track channel-level metrics:
- Response time by channel
- Conversion by channel
- Drop-off after first response
- Escalation rate by channel
Combine this with AI Sales Employee Playbook for improved close rates.
Final Recommendation
Do not automate channels in isolation. Build one orchestration layer with role-based AI employees and channel-specific behavior rules. That is how you scale consistency and conversion together.
