By default the agent identifies as the persona you give it: your sales rep, your assistant, whoever you configure. It doesn't volunteer that it's AI. You stay in full control. If you want the agent to disclose when asked directly, or to disclose proactively, you configure that rule. If you'd rather it never does, you configure that too. The stance is your call, not ours. Most operators choose to let the agent represent the brand naturally and only disclose AI when a prospect asks, which is what we recommend.

The agent escalates. Any conversation the agent isn't confident in (questions outside its configured knowledge, edge-case objections, anything it flags as needing a human) flips into a "needs human intervention" status and you get notified. You step in, the conversation continues, and the agent learns the new pattern for next time. This is a deliberate design choice: we'd rather the agent pause and ask for help than confidently say the wrong thing on a deal that matters. The agent never embarrasses you. It knows when to call you in.

Yes, and we work to keep it that way. Cloziq is built on Meta's official Graph API and stays within platform messaging policy limits. We're in active contact with Meta as the platform evolves, which matters: when policies or APIs change (and they do, often), we adapt the system so your business keeps running uninterrupted. You're not betting on a vendor that built once and walked away. You're betting on infrastructure that's actively maintained against the platform it lives on.

An AI appointment setter is software that automatically engages leads, qualifies them, answers questions, follows up, and books qualified prospects onto your calendar. Cloziq does this directly inside Instagram DMs while also handling objections and sales conversations that traditional appointment-setting tools hand off to humans.

Calendly is the flagship calendar integration. When the agent's goal is to book a call, it connects directly to your Calendly availability. The agent can also book calls directly in the DM thread ("Does 9 AM Tuesday work?") without sending the prospect to an external link, which converts noticeably better than calendar-link drops. Stripe is the flagship for closing sales. The agent generates a checkout link backed by your own Stripe account, with full sale tracking and optional auto-delivery for digital products. Zapier catch hooks cover everything else, so any agent-led conversation can pipe leads to whatever you already use.

Yes. Cloziq qualifies leads inside Instagram DMs and moves qualified prospects into the booking process automatically, so your team doesn't have to manually respond to every lead or drop calendar links into conversations.

If you're using ManyChat for broadcast campaigns and comment-trigger flows, keep it. That's what it's good at. If you're using it to actually sell, you've probably already noticed the ceiling: flow-builder logic breaks the moment a prospect says something unexpected, and it doesn't qualify, handle real objections, or close. Cloziq is built for the sales conversation itself. Every DM is a real qualification flow, the agent handles objections, books calls in-thread, and sends Stripe checkouts. Many operators run both: ManyChat for broadcasts, Cloziq for the actual sale.

An AI appointment setter is primarily focused on qualifying leads and booking meetings. An AI sales agent goes further. Cloziq can qualify prospects and book calls like an AI appointment setter, but it can also answer offer questions, handle objections, send Stripe checkout links, track sales, and escalate conversations to your team when needed.

Cheaper, by an order of magnitude. A US-based DM setter runs $5,000 to $7,200 per month fully loaded (Glassdoor + industry data). Offshore setters run $2,000 to $2,500 per month. Setter agencies charge $5,000 to $10,000 per month. Cloziq Standard is $200 per month with 200 sales conversations. Pro is $450 per month with 600. Elite is $1,000 per month with 1,500. At 10 client accounts an agency would otherwise pay $20k+ per month in offshore setter payroll. Cloziq Elite handles all of them for $1,000. And the agent works 24/7, doesn't churn, doesn't need training, and doesn't have an off day.

About 15 minutes for most operators, with a reliable Sales Agent live and running. Two things make that possible. First, Sales Agent Templates: we ship pre-built agent configurations you pick from and lightly tweak instead of building from scratch. Second, Import Offer mode: paste the URL to an existing offer page or sales asset and the AI scrapes the content, analyzes it, and autofills your offer fields, qualification questions, and FAQs. Connect your Instagram, point your agent at the offer, turn on the initiative, and you're selling. The slow part used to be deciding what you want the agent to do. We removed most of that work too.
