Most powerful ways to connect OpenAI Responses and ManyChat
ManyChat + OpenAI Responses + Google Sheets: When a user interacts with a ManyChat bot, the bot uses OpenAI to generate a response. The user's input and the AI's response are then saved to a Google Sheet for analysis and improvement.
ManyChat + OpenAI Responses + Google Calendar: When a user interacts with a ManyChat bot and expresses interest in scheduling an appointment, OpenAI analyzes the conversation to determine the best time and date. A Google Calendar event is then created to log the appointment.
