Quickstart

Website address to real customer answered, in about ten minutes. Most of that is Meta's part.

1. Build one before you sign up

Go to app.jabee.ai/build and give it your website address. It reads the site, builds an assistant from what is actually on it, and lets you talk to that assistant in the browser. No account, no card.

No website is fine. Answer seven questions instead: what you do, where you are, your hours, your prices, how somebody buys, the questions you get asked, and anything you never want said. Plenty of businesses here have an Instagram page and nothing else, and that is enough to start.

Ask it the five things your customers actually ask. If the answers are wrong, the problem is usually that the page holding the answer was not read, and the Knowledge screen tells you which pages it has.

2. Keep it

Sign up and the assistant you just built comes with you. Nothing is typed twice. The crawl, the content and the prompt are the ones a paying account gets, because it is the same assistant.

3. Connect a number

Under Setup, connect WhatsApp. This runs Meta's Embedded Signup in a popup: you sign in to Facebook, pick or create a WhatsApp Business Account, and pick a number. You never open Meta's developer console.

The number has to be one that is not already on WhatsApp. If yours is, Meta will not accept it, and the usual answer is a new line from your operator. There is more on this in connecting channels.

Facebook Messenger and Instagram connect the same way, from the same screen. Your Page brings its linked Instagram account with it.

4. Try it for real

Message your own number from your own phone. The reply comes back in a few seconds, and the conversation appears in your inbox.

The test chat in the dashboard runs the same agent on the same model your plan buys, and it does not count against your allowance. It really books into the diary, writes a real enquiry and calls your connected systems, so what you see there is what a customer gets.

5. Choose a plan

Jabee answers nobody until a plan is chosen, and the dashboard says so rather than going quiet. Plans start at $19 a month for 500 answered messages, or $15 a seat for the inbox with no AI at all. The prices.

Then

Three things are worth doing in the first week, in this order. Add an intent for the one question you want answered your way rather than from your website. Add whoever should be told when a customer needs a person. Connect your own system if the answer to a common question lives in one.
