Each social media profile linked to your Hootsuite Inbox can hold up to 10,000 public conversations and 10,000 private conversations. Once you reach that limit, the oldest conversations will be removed from Inbox.

Like a 24/7 live agent, it can answer any question your customers have about your business with contextual, accurate, and on-brand responses.
