**Smartbot Pro** is a set of marketing tools for instant messengers. Smartbot Pro is based on the Smartbot service for VKontakte, which is used by tens of thousands of VK groups. 

Tasks that the smartbot solves: 

1. Sales automation via messengers 
2. Optimization of resources for user support in social networks 
3. Creation of sales funnels with branched logic, delayed events, collection of statistics and various tools for increasing conversions.

**Bot scripts** are the heart of the service.
