Hey! Been following for a while. How does your coaching work?
Appreciate that! Quick question first so I point you the right way. What are you trying to change right now?
Honestly just being more consistent. I start strong then fall off
Super common. How long has that cycle been going on?
Like 2 years lol
Got it. Easiest next step is a quick call so I can see if it is a fit. Thursday 2:30 or Friday 11?
Friday works
The job
What does an AI DM setter do?
A DM setter manages the steps between a lead's first message and the right next action. For a coach, that means understanding the lead's goal, checking fit, answering relevant questions, following up, and inviting a qualified person to book a call.
Intellicoach applies your instructions to that workflow in Instagram and Facebook conversations. It supports booking links, Calendly, and GoHighLevel handoffs. You decide the rules and retain control of the conversation.
How it works
Your sales process remains the source of truth.
Step 01
Start with your process
Add your offer, conversation scripts, qualification criteria, disqualification rules, and booking method.
Step 02
Keep the conversation moving
Intellicoach uses the lead's messages and your instructions to reply, ask relevant questions, and follow up at the right stage.
Step 03
Book or hand off
Good-fit leads can receive your booking link or move through a connected calendar. You can review threads and take over when judgment is needed.
Every coaching niche
One setter, tuned to how your niche sells.
Fitness coaches are the largest group using Intellicoach, and dating, relationship, business, health, and life coaches use it too. Your questions, rules, and tone decide how it handles each lead.

FAQ
Questions coaches ask
An AI DM setter is software that helps a coaching business manage direct message sales conversations. It replies to leads, asks qualification questions, follows up, and moves eligible prospects toward a call using the coach's offer and rules.
Intellicoach supports coaching conversations in Instagram and Facebook messaging and connects with booking and CRM tools such as Calendly and GoHighLevel. Check the integrations page for current channel and integration details.
It can handle repeatable conversation work and free up a setter or coach from routine replies. A person should still own unusual, sensitive, or high-judgment situations and review real conversations to improve the rules.
No. An AI DM setter works best when a coach already has people starting or replying to conversations through content, ads, referrals, or outreach. It helps handle that existing lead flow.
