Why LinMi

Your customers are on a dozen channels. Your team is stuck on separate phones.

Scattered messages, language barriers, follow-ups that live in someone’s head, and customers who leave when a rep does. Four problems every international sales team knows.

Before

A few phones, a dozen apps, and customers scattered across the team

  • Who’s on it?
  • Where did we leave off?
  • Copy-paste translation
  • Lost when reps leave
With LinMi

One team inbox that shows who’s handling each customer and where things stand

  • Every channel, one inbox
  • Two-way auto-translation
  • Stages + follow-up records
  • Customers stay with you

02 – 06Serving customers

Five steps to serving a customer,
all on one page

Receive, translate, assign, follow up and record, all in one flow. Reply on every channel from one page, read and write in English, always know who’s handling what, and give the whole team a clear view of where each customer stands and what’s been said.

02Team inbox

Multiple accounts and channels, one page to reply from

Connect several WhatsApp and Telegram accounts at once and get every message in a single list. Switch devices or hand off to another agent without losing any customer context.

  • My chats, Unassigned, All, Team, customer stage and custom views, each with an unread badge
  • Text, images, voice, video and files, with quoted replies, unsend, pinning, reactions and read receipts
  • Past conversations, internal notes and system events for each customer on a single timeline

03Two-way auto-translation

They write in Vietnamese, you read English. You write in English, they read Vietnamese.

Incoming messages are translated into English automatically, with the original shown alongside. Replies are translated into the customer’s language, and you can preview and edit them before sending.

  • Set translation per account, or choose a separate language for an individual customer
  • Send guard: a reply in your own language can’t go out untranslated by mistake (the “Block Chinese” switch in the console)
  • Not happy with a translation? Retranslate that message or send feedback

04Team collaboration

Everyone knows who’s handling each customer and where things stand

New customers land in Unassigned, where agents accept them in one click or a supervisor assigns them. Transfer a chat to a teammate and the message history, notes and customer stage all go with it.

  • Internal notes are visible only to teammates, one click away from replies
  • When someone leaves, hand over all of their conversations at once
  • Scope data by team and limit channel accounts to specific members

05Customer stages

One emoji shows where every customer stands

Skip the clunky CRM. Manage customers right in the chat window, move leads stage by stage to a closed deal, and keep existing customers from going cold.

  • Four default stages (New start → Nurturing → Almost done → Won) plus lost stages, all customizable
  • Group conversations by stage and filter your contacts table by stage
  • Customer tags in seven colors, custom fields and follow-up records

06Follow-up records

Shared context, so no customer slips through the cracks

Accepted chats, notes, transfers and stage updates all flow into one timeline under each customer, so whoever picks up the conversation sees the full story at a glance.

  • Accepts, transfers, stage updates and tag changes are logged automatically, so you always know who changed what, and when
  • Internal notes are for teammates only, so whoever takes over catches up instantly
  • Records follow the customer: with a new agent or a new device, the timeline stays intact

Mobile app

Customer messages you can read
and answer on your phone

On the road, at a trade show or after hours, keep serving customers from the iOS / Android app or the WeChat Mini Program: incoming messages are auto-translated and your replies go out in the customer’s language. Hand over to a colleague, update a customer stage or check the follow-up records, all on your phone. Same account, same data as the desktop console.

  • Every channel, one list

    WhatsApp, Telegram and other conversations sit in one list, with unread counts, stages and assignees at a glance.

  • Vietnamese English

    Auto-translation both ways

    You read in English, the customer receives their own language. Check the translation before it goes out.

  • Handovers and customer stages

    Transfer a conversation, move a customer to the next stage or leave an internal note, exactly as on desktop.

  • One account, one set of data

    Phone and desktop stay in sync in real time. Setup work such as channels, data reports and permissions stays on desktop.

Customer stories

From solo exporters to sales teams of dozens

Export teams in packaging, textiles and home goods changed the way they serve customers after switching to LinMi.

We had six WhatsApp numbers split across four people, and nobody could say who had talked to which customer. Now every conversation is in one list, and each morning I can review how the team handled yesterday’s customers in five minutes.

Jing Zhou · Founder

Sunway Packaging · Shenzhen · Packaging exports

Our agents don’t open a translation app anymore. They read every message in their own language, and replies go out in the customer’s. New hires can handle customers from Vietnam and Brazil on day one.

Kevin Lam · Sales Manager

Orient Textile · Guangzhou · Textiles

Customer stages and follow-up records have clearly boosted our repeat orders. Samples, quotes and closed deals are all logged under each customer, so nothing falls apart when someone else takes over.

FAQ

You might be wondering

Have another question? Once you sign up, you can reach us right from the console.

Which channels does LinMi support?

LinMi currently supports WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Instagram, LINE, TikTok, Zalo and Web Live Chat, with more channels on the way. WhatsApp and Telegram can each be connected two ways, through cloud hosting or the official API. See the Channels section on the product page for how each channel connects.

How do I connect WhatsApp? What’s the difference between the official API and cloud hosting?

The WhatsApp Business API is the official route: it needs a verified business and supports message templates. Cloud hosting connects the WhatsApp account you already use: scan a QR code, no business verification needed. You can run both in the same workspace.

Can several people use one WhatsApp number at the same time?

Yes. Once a WhatsApp number is connected to LinMi, every team member signs in with their own account to the same team inbox and serves that number’s customers together. Everyone can see who is handling each chat and where it stands, and handoffs keep the full context.

Do I need to download anything?

Not on desktop: LinMi runs right in your browser, and each team member signs in with their own account. On your phone, download the iOS / Android app or use the WeChat Mini Program — same account, same data as the desktop console.

How does team collaboration work? Can I use LinMi on my own?

Yes, it works great for just one person. With a team, new customers land in the Unassigned list for whoever’s free to accept, and supervisors can also assign or transfer chats. Internal notes are visible only to teammates, never to customers.

Who can see my customer data?

You decide. Combine four roles with three data scopes (All, Team or Own only), block exports, limit visible channels, and mask customer phone numbers and emails. Every action is logged. Data is stored on cloud infrastructure in Singapore and other locations and encrypted in transit, and deleted data is permanently erased from our systems and backups within 90 days.

Which languages can LinMi translate?

LinMi automatically detects the language of each customer message and translates it into your team’s language. Replies are translated into the language you’ve set for that customer. For the full list of supported languages, see the language list in the console.

Can I try it for free?

Yes. The Free plan has no time limit, so you can sign up and start right away. Upgrade as your team grows, and see the Pricing page for what each plan includes and costs.
