What you can do
Review message history
Read the full inbound and outbound message thread for each lead — every message is timestamped.
Monitor AI activity
See which replies were AI-generated and which were manual. Each message is labeled.
Step into a thread
Take over a conversation manually when the AI handoff point is reached or the lead needs a human touch.
Review unmatched replies
Inspect inbound messages that did not attach to a known lead — these may be new callers or wrong numbers.
Layout
The page is organized into four areas:| Section | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Thread list | Browse active conversations, sorted by recent activity |
| Thread detail | Full message history, urgency, and qualification context |
| Reply controls | Send a manual response to the selected lead |
| Unmatched replies | Inbound messages that could not be matched to a lead |
AI behavior in conversations
Depending on plan, workspace settings, and conversation state, Avidra may:- Continue the conversation automatically with contextual follow-up questions
- Stop after a turn limit or timeout to prevent runaway threads
- Escalate to owner handoff for urgent cases or emergency keywords
- Skip sending if billing or plan conditions block AI messaging
When a conversation stops automatically
AI is disabled
AI is disabled
AI may be disabled globally or for the specific conversation. Check AI Behavior. The thread continues in manual-only mode.
Billing is blocked
Billing is blocked
An inactive billing state prevents AI replies. This is the most common silent blocker — verify in Billing and Plan.
Daily SMS cap reached
Daily SMS cap reached
Each plan has a daily SMS limit. The cap resets the following day. Check Usage and Limits.
Max AI turn count reached
Max AI turn count reached
Avidra limits the number of AI turns per conversation to prevent runaway threads. The thread continues in manual-only mode.
Thread auto-closed as stale
Thread auto-closed as stale
Conversations with no activity for an extended period are automatically closed. A new inbound message from the same caller re-opens the thread.
Manual replies
When you take over a conversation, your replies are sent through Twilio just like AI replies. The thread logs your message as a manual reply so you can distinguish human and AI messages later. Use manual replies when:- The AI has reached its turn limit
- The lead asks to speak to a real person
- You want to send a specific offer or quote
- The conversation needs a personal touch to close
Common mistakes
- Assuming every inbound reply should always get an AI response — multiple conditions gate replies
- Not checking whether the thread is stale, capped, or billing blocked before assuming a bug
- Ignoring unmatched replies that did not attach cleanly to a lead — these may be real customers
