Power features

iMessage does more than texting

The same AI engines and message tools your WhatsApp campaigns already use, now firing on blue bubbles. No double setup.

ChatGPT

Speech-to-text on inbound voice notes

When a contact taps the mic, GoGHL transcribes the audio in real time so the text lands in the GHL conversation - searchable, automatable, and ready for any workflow.

Transcribed“Hey, can we move to 3pm?”
ElevenLabs

Text-to-speech voice notes

Drop the voice action into any workflow message. ElevenLabs synthesizes a natural-sounding voice note and the contact gets a real audio bubble - not a robotic TTS file.

{{voice}}
0:07
Built-in

Spintax for natural-sounding sends

Wrap variants in standard pipe-separated curly braces and every contact gets a slightly different message. Standard practice to keep iMessage volume safe and humans-not-bots feeling.

{Hi|Hey|Yo} Eddy 👋
Randomized per send
Hey Eddy 👋
Native

Auto-convert media links

Paste any image, PDF, or audio URL into a workflow message and we automatically download and attach it as native iMessage media. No CDN config, no MMS rules.

Multiple numbers

Five iMessage numbers, one sub-account.

Run multiple Apple IDs in a single HighLevel sub-account. iMessage Sync picks the right number per send using a six-step priority engine - so reps, regions, and personal lines stay separated automatically.

5Instances per sub-account

Connect up to five Apple IDs in a single GHL location. Add reps, split regions, or rotate numbers without paying for more seats.

∞Routing rules

Manual override, tags, assigned reps, defaults - iMessage Sync respects all of them and falls back gracefully when one is missing.

SmartRouting engine

Predictable priority order means you always know which number a message will go from. Reps can override per message inline.

Selection priority

How iMessage Sync picks the right number for every send

Top of the list wins. If the rule does not apply, it drops to the next one. The bottom rules guarantee a message always finds a number.

1

Logged-in users assigned number

Highest
Top

When a rep hits Send from the GHL Conversations tab, the iMessage account assigned to that user is used first. Their reply, their number.

2

Contacts assigned users number

Per rep

If the contact is owned by a rep in HighLevel and that rep has an iMessage account linked, the message sends from their number.

3

Contact tag im plus phone number

Per contact

Tag a contact with the Apple IDs phone number and the thread always uses that account. Perfect for territory or rep-owned leads.

im: +15551234567
4

Manual selection in the message body

Inline

Drop the IM hash N pattern anywhere in your message - N is the account index. The pattern is stripped before sending and the message goes from that exact number.

{IM#N}
5

Default account for the location

Fallback

Set one Apple ID as the default for the sub-account. Any send with no contact-level rule uses this number.

6

Any connected account

Always last

Last-resort fallback so a message never fails for lack of a number. iMessage Sync picks the first connected, healthy account.
