By integrating Messenger API Support for Instagram with Snaps’ conversational automation platform, customers can get always-on, personalized, and intelligent responses about products, services, and active eCommerce orders.

This latest development is a natural evolution for Instagram, which has increasingly become the default platform for online product discovery and shopping, with over 80% of users discovering, researching, or considering products through the platform.

By combining Messenger’s API support with an enterprise conversational automation platform, eCommerce brands can now provide customers with guided shopping experiences, FAQ responses, and post-purchase order management experiences — entirely within Instagram.
