01

1. Create the workspace

Register the business, sign in to the client panel and confirm the workspace name and account details. The active trial or subscription controls feature and channel limits.

  • Keep one business per workspace.
  • Use individual team accounts instead of sharing one login.
  • Check Billing before connecting several channels.
02

2. Connect one channel

Start with one channel so you can verify the complete message path before adding more providers.

  • Telegram: add the BotFather token and let Think Reply register the webhook.
  • Website Chat: enable the widget and place the generated script before the closing body tag.
  • Meta or Gmail: authorize through Think Reply when platform credentials and provider approval are ready.
03

3. Test the Inbox

Send a real test message from the connected provider and confirm it appears in Unified Inbox. Reply from Think Reply and verify the customer receives it.

  • Check contact name and channel.
  • Check conversation status and unread count.
  • Assign an agent and add an internal note.
  • Close and reopen a test conversation.
04

4. Add the team

Invite agents from Team so each person creates their own password and works inside the same business workspace.

  • Use the plan agent limit as your capacity guide.
  • Assign live conversations to the right agent.
  • Review Activity when troubleshooting team actions.
05

5. Add contacts and lists

Create contacts manually or import them, then group people into lists for campaigns and sequences.

  • Keep phone and email values accurate.
  • Use lists for targeting rather than sending to every contact.
  • Respect suppression, unsubscribe and opt-out state.
06

6. Configure AI carefully

Add business knowledge and start in Suggest mode. Move to Auto Reply only when prompts, knowledge and edge cases have been tested.

  • Store provider API keys securely.
  • Keep instructions short and specific.
  • Review suggested replies before expanding automation.
