1. Two AIs, one plan

Answering customers is different from helping your team. NWM CRM ships two AIs so you can tune each one on its own.

AI Copilot — for your team

A helper pane next to every customer record. Your reps ask it to write replies, summarize a contact's history, or pull a quick report. Lives at /crm/ai-copilot. It sees your CRM. It never talks to your customers.

Conversations — for your customers

One inbox at /crm/conversations for every customer message. Website chat. Email. Text. WhatsApp. Social DMs. The AI answers common questions from your own content. It hands off to a human the moment a real opportunity shows up.

Answers common questions

Handles 6 or 7 of every 10 routine questions in Conversations, instantly.

Captures leads

Asks for an email or phone when interest spikes. Creates a new contact right away.

Books meetings

Connects to your Calendar or Calendly and books a time on the spot.

Hands off to humans

Passes the chat to a live rep, or routes it to the right person's queue.

2. The phone-line AI

Voice AI is Conversations for the phone. Incoming calls: answers common questions, qualifies the caller, books meetings. Outgoing calls: runs reminders, confirms appointments, makes first-touch calls. It hands hot ones to a real human by name.

Every call is written down into the customer's record. Your inbox and your phone line share one history.

3. Set it up in 30 minutes

1

Show it your content.

Paste your website URL. Upload PDFs. Drop in text. The AI reads everything in about two minutes.

2

Pick a personality.

Friendly helper. Expert consultant. Customer service rep. This sets the tone and the opening line.

3

Write one handoff rule.

Example: "When the visitor asks about pricing over $5,000, collect their email and send the chat to sales."

4

Paste one line of code on your site.

Copy the small script tag we give you. Paste it before the </body> tag on your website. Done. (Your web person can do this in 2 minutes. We can do it for you.)

4. Train it and fence it in

The AI only answers from the content you gave it. If it does not know something, it says so and offers to get a human. You can add:

Never let the AI guess at prices

Always hard-code your current prices in the locked-in answers. AIs will invent numbers otherwise. That is the fastest way to lose trust.

5. Connect it to your other tools

6. See what it's doing

Your Monday dashboard shows:

Review it every Monday. Fill the gaps. The AI gets smarter every week.

7. Pricing

$149/month for up to 1,000 chats across AI Copilot and Conversations. $349/month for up to 5,000. Voice AI calls are billed separately. Enterprise is custom.

Every plan includes unlimited pages indexed, CRM connection, weekly tuning by us, and no NWM branding on your widget.

Common questions

What does it do with questions it doesn't understand?

It politely declines and offers to connect the visitor with a human. You can edit the wording in Settings.

What about privacy laws (GDPR)?

Chats from EU visitors are stored in EU data centers. You pick how long to keep them — default is 90 days. "Delete all my data" is one click.

Can it speak Spanish?

Yes. Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German work out of the box. It picks the language from the visitor's browser.

Will it replace my sales team?

No. It makes them roughly five times more productive. The AI takes the first touch. Humans close the deal.
