An interstitial page appears after a SmartLink tap or QR scan and before the text message opens. The contact chooses a path such as requesting a quote, scheduling service, or contacting support. That choice is written into the prefilled SMS message, so OTTO can begin with the right workflow.
Use the page to add brand context, capture declared intent, and route the conversation without asking the contact to repeat why they reached out.
The interstitial appears before the conversation begins. The contact sees a branded page, chooses a path, and that selection pre-fills the SMS message. After the contact sends it, OTTO starts the workflow connected to that path.
A QR code, direct-mail piece, website button, or social link opens the branded interstitial page in the mobile browser. No app or account is required. Available campaign, device, timestamp, and location signals can be recorded at page load.
Your logo, brand colors, and up to four intent options appear on one page. The contact selects the option that matches their reason for reaching out. That choice is written into the pre-filled SMS message.
The native Messages app opens with the intent already written: “Hi, I’d like to schedule a service appointment.” The contact taps Send, creating a recorded, consumer-initiated opt-in before OTTO responds.
The intent is already known. OTTO routes Schedule Service to an appointment collector and Get a Quote to a qualification ITR. The contact does not need to explain why they reached out a second time.
Most SMS tools start with the conversation. TextingOnly starts with the entry point. By the time the conversation begins, your team can know who reached out, what they want, and which campaign brought them in.
Configure the intent options that match your business on one interstitial page. Each path has its own icon, label, pre-filled message, and OTTO workflow. One page can support several reasons for contact.
The interstitial page is managed in the dashboard. Set the logo, brand colors, intent options, and OTTO workflows, then publish. You can update the page later without changing the QR code or SmartLink that points to it.
