Provider Typing Relay

Which messaging apps show the contact a typing indicator while you or an AI compose a reply

When an AI is generating or you're typing into the composer, Wexio can relay a "… is typing" indicator to the contact's messaging app, for providers that support it.

ProviderOutbound typingDetail
Telegram✓Native "Bot is typing…" indicator at the top of the contact's chat. Re-ticked every 4 seconds while generation runs.
Instagram✓Native typing indicator.
WhatsApp Cloud-The provider doesn't expose a typing action. The contact sees nothing different.
Viber-The Bot API doesn't expose typing actions. Same as WhatsApp Cloud.

The operator UI is the same for every provider. Only the contact-side indicator differs. The relay is throttled per chat to at most once every 5 seconds, so typing alone can't trigger a provider rate limit.
