Delay Until Text Matches Certain Word

Hello! Basically, I am trying to set up a delay for Zapier that instead of waiting a set amount of time, waits until a Facebook Message contains a certain string of text, and then fires the rest of the tasks. Is this possible?

Sadly this isn’t possible as Zapier has no way to continuously monitor the chat for the eventual mention of a word.
