Define Users for AI Escalations & Outcomes
When your AI Agent is stuck and needs help or has completed a task, you can determine the right team member to jump in and help or take the next steps. Go to Settings > AI Employee > Escalations & Outcomes then configure which users should get notified for each situation. Then users will receive email and push notifications about the AI Agent mentioning them in a note on the conversation.

Available on Windows and coming soon for Apple – sign up to beta test here.
Call Queues (Upcoming Beta)
Ensure every caller gets the attention they deserve by automatically placing incoming calls in a queue and routing them to the next available team member.

This feature is still in beta testing – if you’re interested in participating, sign up to beta test here.
Carrier Calling for Mobile Softphone
Route phone calls through your cellular carrier when your internet connection is too weak for VoIP. This ensures critical calls go through reliably—especially helpful for when you are on the go or in low-bandwidth environments. Set up Carrier Calling by navigating to Settings > Preferences > Call Settings and adding your mobile phone number.
Live Chat (Automotive Beta)
Give website visitors a seamless way to chat in real time—no phone number required. With Live Chat, visitors can engage directly through Podium Webchat without starting an SMS conversation. Jerry, our AI Employee, can step in to collect contact information, schedule appointments, and escalate conversations as needed. Visitors can switch to text messaging at any point, and Live Chat conversations can also be managed manually in the Inbox. Now available in Beta for customers in the Professional Bundle. Contact your CSM to get early access.
