How Philippine Businesses Can Use an AI Chatbot for Messenger and Instagram

A missed inquiry can mean a missed sale or booking. Someone who messages “Magkano po?” may already know what they want. They just need the price before they decide. If your team is helping customers in person or has gone home for the day, that message can sit unread until the buyer has moved on.

Asikaso AI is an AI chatbot for Philippine businesses that receive customer inquiries on Facebook Messenger and Instagram. It uses your prices, services, and branch details to answer questions in English, Tagalog, or Taglish, even after closing time. When someone is ready to order or book, it can collect the details your team needs to help them take that step.

Turn more inquiries into sales

Someone browsing Facebook after work spots a hair treatment and asks, “Magkano po?” With Asikaso AI, they can get the price, find out whether the Makati branch offers it, and request a Saturday appointment that evening. By morning, the salon has a booking request ready to confirm. The customer gets to make plans while they’re interested, and the salon has a chance to win a booking it might otherwise have missed.

Handle more inquiries without hiring more staff

A busy inbox can make it feel like you need another employee. But if most messages are variations of “Magkano po?”, “Open kayo sa Sunday?”, or “Saan ang branch?”, hiring someone to type the same answers every day can be an expensive way to keep up.

Asikaso AI can answer those questions on Messenger and Instagram, including after closing time. That leaves your team available for customers who need advice, a custom quote, or help with a purchase. If routine inquiries are the main reason you’re considering another hire, you may be able to serve more customers with the staff you already have.

How Vanity First handled inquiries after hours

At Vanity First, a Philippine dermatology and aesthetic center, staff often received online inquiries while they were assisting clients in the clinic. The team uses Asikaso AI to answer questions about services, collect client preferences, and help arrange appointments.

In its first 15 days, Asikaso AI answered 1,823 customer messages and helped with 13 appointments and visits, according to Asikaso AI’s Vanity First customer story. Of those messages, 1,032 were handled outside clinic hours. For someone asking about a service after work, that meant they could get an answer and start arranging a visit that evening.
