THE DEFINITION

What Is AI Messaging?

AI 2-Way Messaging is an autonomous AI system that holds real back-and-forth text conversations with your customers, on whatever channel they reach out on : SMS, business texting, Facebook Messenger, Instagram DM.

Unlike a one-shot autoresponder, which sends one canned message and stops, 2-way messaging keeps the conversation moving until the customer has what they need. Erva is the AI 2-Way Messaging system inside the 757Comply Virtual Employee.

THE COST OF WAITING

Why Speed Matters More

Texting is the most-used and the most-abandoned channel in service business communication. A customer who texts your business expects a reply in minutes, not hours. If they do not get one, they text the next business in the search results.

Most service businesses respond to texts in 4 to 12 hours, if they respond at all. Erva replies in under 30 seconds, every time, including 11 PM on a Saturday.

THE CONVERSATION LIFECYCLE

How Erva Handles Conversations

From the first ping to a confirmed booking, here is the exact lifecycle of an Erva lead interaction.

STEP 01

Replies in
Under 30s

The moment a text comes in, Erva reads it and responds. She greets the customer by name, references the channel, and asks the right next question.

STEP 02

Holds Full
Conversation

She asks for the details a trained team member would ask. She keeps the conversation going until she has what she needs, the same way a human text exchange would.

STEP 03

Books The
Appointment

She offers real available time slots, the customer picks one, and Erva books it. A confirmation text follows automatically.

STEP 04

Seamless
Human Handoff

If the conversation requires judgment Erva does not have, she hands off with the full transcript so the team member picks up without the customer repeating themselves.

EVERY CHANNEL COVERED

One Unified Inbox

Every channel feeds into a single unified inbox. A conversation that starts on Facebook Messenger can be continued by SMS without the customer having to re-explain anything.

  • SMS: your business number, on iPhone and Android.
  • Business Texting: RCS and Apple Business Chat where available.
  • Facebook Messenger: directly from your business page.
  • Instagram DMs: connected to your business profile.
  • Google Business: direct messages from your search profile.
  • WhatsApp Business: available on Growth Pro and above.

Live Demonstration

A Real Erva Conversation

Saturday, 10:47 PM
Hey, do you guys do emergency drain cleaning?
Hi! Yes, we do — sorry you're dealing with that. Where is the drain located, and is water actively backing up?
Kitchen sink, yeah water is starting to come up.
Got it. What's the address, and is anyone home now if we can get a tech out tonight?
3411 Oceanview, Norfolk. Yes I'm home.
Perfect. Our after-hours tech can be there between 11:30 PM and 12:15 AM tonight, or 7-8 AM tomorrow morning. Which works?
Tonight please.
Booked. Tech will be there inside 90 minutes. You'll get a text 10 minutes before they arrive. Anything else I can help with?
Job booked. Customer is not calling the next plumber in the Google results.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

Why Erva Is Different

Most "AI text" tools are one-shot autoresponders — they send a canned message and stop. Erva is built to be a fully autonomous conversationalist that handles the interaction until the customer has exactly what they need.

Dynamic Replies

She replies, she does not autoreply. Erva responds dynamically, in context, every single turn.

Conversation Memory

A customer who texted last Tuesday doesn't get treated like a stranger. Erva picks up exactly where they left off.

Your Brand Tone

If your business texts in lower-case casual, Erva does too. If your style is highly formal, she matches it flawlessly.

Integrated Channels

A customer starting on Facebook DM, moving to SMS, and ending on Google Messages remains one continuous conversation.

WE'RE HERE TO HELP

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a specific question about how Erva handles your messaging? Here's everything you need to know about our AI identity, MMS support, and how we handle spam.

Will the customer know they are texting an AI?

Not unless they specifically ask. Erva identifies herself as Erva from your business, the same way a receptionist named Sarah would identify as Sarah. We comply with state-level AI disclosure requirements where they exist.

What if my customer asks if they are texting a real person?

Erva is trained to answer honestly. Her default response: "I'm Erva - I'm the AI assistant for [Your Business]. I can help with most things, but I can also get you to a team member any time you'd like."

Can Erva send images or photos?

Yes. On Growth Pro and above, Erva can send and receive MMS - photos, PDFs, location pins. Useful for emergency service calls where the customer wants to send a picture of the problem.

What if my customer texts something that is not a real lead?

Erva is trained to recognize spam, wrong numbers, and informational-only messages, and to handle them appropriately. Real leads get the full intake. Wrong numbers get a polite goodbye.

Does Erva respect Do Not Contact lists?

Yes. Customers who have opted out of texting are never texted again, regardless of which channel they originally came in on. We honor TCPA and state-level rules.

Can I see every conversation Erva has had?

Yes. Every conversation across every channel is logged in your unified inbox. You can search, filter, and review at any time. Recordings are stored in your account, not in a third-party tool.
