TikTok messages, where access allows

For loan officers who teach on TikTok, the AI Engine can reply to direct messages where your TikTok business account’s messaging access allows, answering general questions and moving interested viewers to a booked call.

  1. Borrower ur video on closing costs was so helpful. how much would mine be lol
  2. AI assistant Glad it helped! I’m Jordan’s AI assistant. Closing costs depend on the loan, location and lender fees, so I can’t give a number here, but Jordan can estimate yours on a quick call. Want a link to book?

How it works

How TikTok messages works, step by step

Tolly holding a tall phone showing a short video and a message bubble
  1. Stage 1 of 4

    Check access

    TikTok messaging features for businesses vary by account type, region and TikTok’s current programs. We confirm what your account can connect before promising anything.

  2. Stage 2 of 4

    Connect

    Where supported, you grant messaging access from your own business account.

  3. Stage 3 of 4

    Reply and qualify

    The AI answers general questions in a short, friendly style and asks what the viewer is looking for.

  4. Stage 4 of 4

    Move to a call

    It offers a booked call or a link to the LO’s page and funnel, with consent before any text or phone follow-up.

What a conversation looks like

Helpful, brief and handed to a human

The sample on this page is written by our team to show tone and guardrails: general information, no rate quotes, consent before follow-up, and a licensed loan officer for anything specific.

  • Introduces itself as an AI assistant
  • Declines rate, approval and advice questions politely
  • Offers a specific time with a specific LO
  • Saves a summary to the CRM
What the AI Never Does: No rate quotes, No approvals, No loan advice, Hands off to a human. Infographic with Tolly the puffin.
