Sendbird AI agent on SMS

“Hey, I need help”
That’s how most customer support conversations start. Simple, direct. But here is the problem - most support systems aren’t built for real conversations.
Instead, you get a ticket. A number in a queue. Maybe an email response - only hours later. Maybe you get stuck in a chatbot loop, pressing buttons, just hoping to talk to someone who can actually fix the problem.
We think there’s a better way. So we built an AI agent for SMS.
AI Agent on SMS
A fully automated customer service AI agent that texts like a human and solves your issue, end-to-end, over SMS. You send a message. That’s it. No apps. No waiting. No dead ends. Just a real and fluid conversation that gets things done.
Why SMS?
Always accessible – The most universal support channel. No downloads. No internet required.
Preferred by modern customers – 82% of Millennials and 74% of Gen Z favor real-time, digital-first service (from source).
Feels natural – Customers reach out just like they would to a human—by sending a simple text.
