How to switch from Manychat
to Wagent in 15 minutes.
No flows to rebuild. No data to migrate. No risk of losing your audience. Here is the exact sequence to move from Manychat's flow builder to Wagent's AI setter, step by step.
What you need on hand.
Three things will speed the migration: (1) a PDF or doc with your offer description, pricing, and target audience, (2) two or three example DM conversations you want the AI to mirror, and (3) your existing Calendly or Cal.com link so the AI can book inside chat. None of these are required, but they cut setup time from 30 minutes to 10.
“Migration is not a project. It is an afternoon. The hardest part is deciding what to put in your knowledge base.”
Step-by-step.
Step 1 · Pause Manychat automations. Inside Manychat, navigate to your active flows and toggle each to paused. Do not delete anything — pausing keeps them ready as a rollback. Time: 2 minutes.
Step 2 · Sign up for Wagent. Go to hirewagent.com and create a free account. No credit card. The free tier gives you 50 messages and 1 channel to test the migration with. Time: 1 minute.
Step 3 · Connect your channels. In the Wagent dashboard, click Connect Instagram, authorize through Meta's official OAuth flow. Same for WhatsApp Business (if you use it). Add Telegram if relevant. Each connection takes ~60 seconds. Time: 3 minutes total.
Step 4 · Train the AI on your business. Upload your offer doc, paste your pricing, list your qualification criteria (budget, fit, timeline, readiness). Add objection-handling examples from your past DM conversations. The AI is fully trained in 5 minutes. Time: 5-10 minutes.
Step 5 · Customize the voice. Set the tone (warm, professional, playful, direct). Add words you want the AI to use and words you don't. Upload 2-3 example messages you've sent yourself so the AI matches your voice. Time: 2-3 minutes.
Step 6 · Go live and monitor. Toggle Wagent active. Send yourself a test DM from another account to confirm. Watch the first real conversations come in. If anything is off — voice, pricing accuracy, edge cases — adjust the knowledge base in real time. Time: ongoing.
What to watch.
For the first week, watch every conversation Wagent has. Look for: cases where the AI got pricing wrong, places where it missed a qualification step, voice tone drift. Each correction makes the AI better in real time — Wagent's training is dynamic, not one-shot.
After 7-10 days of clean operation, you can fully disconnect Manychat (or keep it paused indefinitely for the comfort of a rollback option).
