FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can we start with only Messaging apps?

Yes. A focused single-channel pilot is often the clearest way to validate knowledge, handoff and the first customer workflow before expanding.

Do operators see AI and human messages together?

Yes. Telp keeps the conversation history and handoff state in the shared operator inbox.

Are external channel accounts included?

Not always. Some messaging and phone channels require an approved business account, number or provider fee outside the Telp subscription.
