Zender v3.9

Hello, Dear Customers! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce the release of Zender v3.9, packed with exciting features, key improvements, and some much-needed fixes. This update focuses on making your experience smarter, safer, and more efficient than ever before.

What’s New?

• Smarter Communication with AI Integration

  Zender now features AI-powered autoreplies that support multiple AI models, including OpenAI, GeminiAI, and ClaudeAI. This ensures a flexible, context-aware system with advanced memory mechanisms and automatic conversation summarization to save tokens, making customer interactions smoother and more effective.

  Additionally, Zender supports vision features—send images, and the AI will respond! Audio transcriptions are also supported when using OpenAI, allowing the AI to respond to your voice for a seamless and interactive experience.

• AI Plugins

  Create custom plugins for the AI and make a powerful automated messaging experience for your clients. Imagine an automated Shopify store powered using WhatsApp/SMS and AI!

• Enhanced Content Moderation
  Protect your platform with our new content moderation system powered by OpenAI's moderation model—free of charge. You can enable this in the system settings.

• Improved Security
  We’ve separated admin API key from the system token to ensure your data remains secure. This change enhances system safety and makes admin API management more robust.

• Streamlined API Documentation
  The API documentations has been revamped for clarity and ease of use. With newly added code samples for both user and admin APIs, getting started has never been easier.
