AI sales agent approvals in Slack and WhatsApp.

Gen-X AI sales agents ask before they send an email, a LinkedIn message or a post. Approve from Gen-X, a Slack thread or WhatsApp by replying in plain words or reacting with a thumbs up.

The agents that ask before they act

Every agent that sends, books or updates something asks first in Draft Mode, in the place you started the work.

    Outbound campaigns

    “Start a 3-step sequence for the webinar list.”

  • Inbox Manager

    Email and messaging

    “Reply to everyone who asked about pricing.”

  • LinkedIn Assistant

    LinkedIn outreach

    “Send a personal note to the 20 people we met at the expo.”

  • Social Assistant

    Social content

    “Draft three launch posts for next week.”

  • Gen-X

    Team lead

    “Plan next week’s outbound and split it across the team.”

# what-it-does

What the agents ask before doing

Draft Mode turns every send into a question in the chat you are already in.

  • Emails wait for a yes

    Campaign Manager asks before a sequence goes out and before each batch is sent.

  • LinkedIn on your terms

    Connection requests, messages and comments from your account are drafted first and sent after you approve.

  • Replies and meetings

    Replies to prospects and booked meetings go out once you agree with the wording and the time.

  • Posts asked one by one

    Every post is asked separately, so a publish never rides along with another approval.

  • Answers in your own words

    Approve, reject or ask for changes in plain words. The agent checks that your reply covers the exact action before it acts.

  • A record of every yes

    Every request, answer and action stays in the thread, so you can see who approved what.

  1. Step 1

    Give the task

    Ask an agent for the work in Gen-X, a Slack thread or WhatsApp.

  2. Step 2

    Get the request

    The agent drafts the emails, messages or booking and asks in the same place.

  3. Step 3

    Answer in a word

    Reply "send it", ask for a change, or react with a thumbs up.

Where the approval happens

Most AI SDR tools hold drafts in a review queue inside their app. Gen-X asks in the conversation, so you can approve from wherever you are.

How AI sales agent approvals work in Gen-X

AI sales agents are useful because they act: they send the email, connect on LinkedIn, book the meeting. That is also why most teams want a say before anything leaves their name. The usual answer is an approval queue inside the tool, which only works while someone keeps the tool open.

Gen-X puts the approval in the conversation. Each chat runs in one of three access modes. Read Only lets the agents read and report. Draft Mode makes them ask before they send, book, update or spend. Full Auto lets them act on their own. New chats start in Draft Mode.

When an agent needs a yes, it asks where you gave it the work. Start a task in the Gen-X chat and the request appears there. Start it from a Slack thread and the request is posted in that thread. Start it from WhatsApp with /genx and the request arrives in that chat.

You answer the way you would answer a colleague. "Send it" approves. "Yes, but cc Dana" approves with a change. "Do them all" approves a whole batch. A thumbs up or thumbs down on the request works too. Only the person who owns the task can approve it, and every request and answer stays in the thread.

Some actions are always asked one at a time, even later on: publishing a social post, sending a WhatsApp message and changing ads. Deleting is never automatic. That keeps the riskiest actions in front of a person while the routine work moves quickly.

# questions

Questions

01

Is there an AI sales agent that lets me approve messages from Slack or WhatsApp?

Yes. Gen-X is a team of AI sales agents that ask before sending when the chat is in Draft Mode. If you start a task from Slack or WhatsApp, the approval request arrives there, and you answer with a reply or a thumbs-up reaction.

02

How do I approve an AI agent's email in Slack?

Reply in the Slack thread with "send it", or ask for a change such as "yes, but shorten the subject", and the agent sends the version you approved. You can also react to the request with a thumbs up to approve or a thumbs down to reject.

03

How do WhatsApp approvals work?

Link your WhatsApp to Gen-X, choose a group and what the agents may do there, and start a task with /genx. When an agent needs a yes, it sends the request to that chat. React to it, or reply quoting it with your answer. Only your own linked account can approve.

04

Which actions wait for approval?

Sending emails and LinkedIn messages, LinkedIn connection requests and comments, launching campaigns, booking or moving meetings, updating your CRM and enriching contacts. Publishing social posts, sending WhatsApp messages and changing ads are always asked one by one. Deleting is never automatic.

05

Can I approve a whole batch at once?

Yes. When an agent asks to send a batch, reply "do them all" and every item in that batch is approved.

06

Can I let the agents run without asking?

Each chat has an access mode. Read Only lets agents look but not change anything. Draft Mode makes them ask before anything goes out. Full Auto lets them act on their own. New chats start in Draft Mode.
