AI-Powered Conversation Management in Kanbox

Use an AI agent to answer your campaigns conversations

Updated today

Kanbox integrates AI directly into your outreach campaigns to automate, qualify, and manage conversations at scale. This system allows you to combine automation with intelligent decision-making, ensuring relevant and personalized interactions.

This documentation explains:

  1. How to configure the AI agent

  2. How AI tracks and manages conversations in the pipeline


1. Configuring the AI Agent

The AI agent is configured at the campaign (sequence) level and defines how conversations are handled automatically.

1.1 Enable AI Conversations

In your sequence settings:

  • Activate “AI Response”

  • Choose the AI mode:

    • Assist → AI suggests replies, user validates

    • Autopilot → AI replies automatically


1.2 Define the Conversation Goal

This is the most critical part of the setup.

The Conversation Goal tells the AI what outcome to drive toward.

Example:

  • Book a meeting

  • Qualify a lead

  • Send a resource

Best practices:

  • Be explicit and action-oriented

  • Include links if needed (calendar, landing page, etc.)

  • Add constraints to guide behavior

Example configuration:

  • Book a meeting using a calendar link

  • Only push for booking if the lead shows interest

  • If not interested, do not insist

👉 This ensures the AI behaves like a human SDR, not a spam bot.


1.3 Provide Company / Offer Context

This section gives the AI the necessary background to answer intelligently.

Include:

  • What your company does

  • Value proposition

  • Optional: objections handling elements

Why it matters:

  • Improves response relevance

  • Ensures consistency in messaging

  • Reduces hallucinations

👉 Think of this as training the AI on your product.


1.4 AI Behavior Logic

Based on your configuration, the AI will:

  • Understand user intent (interest, objection, question, etc.)

  • Adapt tone and responses dynamically

  • Push toward the defined goal when relevant

  • Stop or redirect if the user is not a good fit

It can:

  • Answer questions

  • Qualify leads

  • Handle objections

  • Propose meetings


2. AI Tracking in the Pipeline

Kanbox provides full visibility into AI-driven conversations through a Kanban pipeline.

Each conversation evolves through stages based on user behavior and AI analysis.


2.1 Pipeline Structure

2 new columns include:

  • AI Conversation → ongoing conversations handled by AI

  • To review → user replied, waiting or processed


2.2 AI Insights (Intent Detection)

Each conversation is enriched with AI Insights, which classify user intent in real time.

Examples of detected intents:

  • Interested

  • Meeting intent

  • Objection

  • Later

These labels appear directly on conversation cards.


2.3 Conversation Status Tracking

Each lead card includes:

  • AI Insight label (intent classification)

  • Progress indicator (e.g. “0/3”, “1/3”)

  • Status (e.g. Pending)

This allows you to:

  • Understand where each lead is in the funnel

  • Prioritize high-value conversations

  • Identify bottlenecks


2.4 Human + AI Collaboration

Even in Autopilot mode, you maintain control:

  • Monitor all conversations

  • Jump in at any time

  • Adjust strategy based on insights

Kanbox ensures:

  • Automation handles volume

  • Humans handle edge cases and strategy


Key Benefits

  • Scalable outreach with personalized conversations

  • Automated qualification of leads

  • Real-time intent detection

  • Clear pipeline visibility

  • Higher conversion rates with less manual work
