Nest: One social inbox, fully automated

Nest brings your social messages, comments, mentions, and customer interactions together so your team can engage faster, build a stronger community, and seize every opportunity to connect.

Surface the conversations that matter

From social comments and DMs to mentions and reviews, Nest helps your team stay responsive, collaborate seamlessly, and turn everyday interactions into brand loyalty.

Unify

Respond to comments and DMs across Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, X, and TikTok. All from a single inbox.

Automate

Route conversations, trigger automated responses, and eliminate repetitive work so your team can focus on meaningful engagement.

Delight

Respond faster, provide the most accurate information, and set up customer satisfaction surveys to track user experience.

Turn every comment, mention, or DM into an opportunity to engage

Stay on top of your inbox with a full suite of inbox management tools that’ll help you simplify, save time, and grow on social media.

Never miss a message — or an opportunity

Nest gives you a birds-eye view of public comments and private messages across networks. Easily search through all your conversations to find what you’re looking for fast, and stay on top of important messages with notifications.

Tackle an unruly inbox as a team

Easily tag in teammates and assign them messages to handle. Ensure multiple users don’t accidentally respond to the same comment or message. And set your status to “available” or “away” to keep your work-life balance in check.

Pick up where you left off with full context

Leave detailed contact and conversation notes for your teammates so you can provide personalized replies. Chat with other agents to get quick answers. (Don’t worry, chats and notes are never viewable to customers).

Built for the busiest inboxes

Whether you're managing hundreds or thousands of conversations, Nest gives you the tools to prioritize faster, collaborate better, and never miss what matters.

Decrease response times with custom automations

Customize your workflow and save time with inbox automations. Add tags and topics to auto-route and prioritize certain conversations in your queue. Plus, set up automations to resolve conversations. For example, you can set a rule so that if a contact responds with "goodbye,” your conversation will automatically resolve.

Engage consistently across every conversation

Route conversations to the right teammate, collaborate behind the scenes, and ensure every interaction reflects your brand voice. With Nest, you can create specific skill sets and then automatically route related messages to the teams with those skills.

Measure community sentiment and engagement

Track response times, CSAT scores, engagement volume, conversation trends, sentiment, and audience participation to understand what's resonating with your community. Plus, view and track your results over time to see where you can improve.

Protect sensitive information, stay compliant, and reduce risk

Nest always protects your customers’ personally identifiable information (PII). Automatically or manually conceal sensitive information, such as credit card and social security numbers, across your public and private social media channels.

Nest + Wisdom = Better together

Soon, you’ll be able to link Wisdom and Nest. Use chat to search your inbox in plain language, summarize conversations, uncover recurring customer issues, identify emerging risks, draft responses, and get recommended next steps.
