Agent Productivity
Message Details
Message details (delivered and seen status) are available for WhatsApp, Viber, and Facebook Messenger. Agents appreciate knowing when messages are being delivered to customers, and even more, when they have read the message. It essentially lets them act better and they have more time to deal with inquiries properly. Learn more about Message details.

LINE, as the fastest-growing mobile messaging app in the world, will help you provide customer support via their preferred channel, especially for key markets in Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, and Thailand. - RCS
RCS (Rich Communication Services) will enable you to interact with customers with rich content messages that come native on their phones. - Voice
With enabled real-time Audio and VideoEarly Access calls, your customers can reach out directly from mobile applications, websites, or simply by dialing from mobile or landline phones. This will provide uninterrupted customer experience and support customers in reaching out to your support with a single click.

Answers
Templating Language
Helps with the extraction of values and dynamic generation of content using objects, tags and filters giving you more flexibility in how you present attributes and create message content. Learn more about templating language.
Message Randomization
You can add up to 5 different message texts that can be randomly sent as a message to the user, making the same conversation sound different whenever your user reaches the same point in the conversation. Message randomization is available in Send text, Attribute, Fallback, and Repeat elements.
Coding Element
Use JavaScript and do more with attribute manipulation (secure hashing of values, saving json files into variables, etc.) and enable more for attribute configuration in your chatbot.
