New Feature Releases
Stay updated with the latest enhancements, UI upgrades, and technical tools added to the BusinessOnBot platform.
January 2026
Exclusive AI Feature Rollout
- WhatsApp Deliverability Boost: A new AI-driven engine that optimizes template delivery times based on historical user engagement, increasing open rates by up to 12%.
- AI Segmentation 2.0: Enhanced machine learning models for customer buckets, allowing for "at-risk" and "high-value" automated tagging without manual rule setting.
Platform Enhancements
- FlowBuilder Media Capture: Agents can now configure flows to specifically request and store images or PDFs sent by customers during a bot journey.
- Website Pop-up 3.0: Redesigned lead-gen pop-up with faster load times and support for custom branding colors directly from the dashboard.
Q4 2025 (Major Milestone)
3.0 Platform Upgrade
The BusinessOnBot core infrastructure was upgraded to 3.0, introducing a unified omnichannel experience.
- Unified Inbox: Seamlessly switch between WhatsApp, Instagram, and Email conversations in a single view.
- ACARS Integration: The Agent Chat Auto Routing System now supports advanced skill-based routing (e.g., routing billing queries only to agents with Finance permissions).
- Instagram Commerce Flow: Full support for product catalogs within Instagram DMs, mirroring the WhatsApp "Shop Now" experience.
Marketing & Retargeting
- Follow-up Campaigns: Ability to trigger a second "nudge" campaign specifically for users who received a broadcast but did not click a button.
- Abandoned Checkout Logic: Enhanced sync with Shopify to capture behavioral data from "Anonymous Users" who drop off before entering their phone number.
Roadmap (Coming Soon)
We are constantly evolving. Here is what the engineering team is currently building:
- Voice-to-Text for Agents: Transcribe incoming voice notes directly in the Freshchat window.
- WhatsApp Flows Advanced: Support for multi-page forms and appointment booking directly inside the WhatsApp interface.
- RCS Messaging: Integrating Rich Communication Services for high-impact android marketing.
