An AI chatbot for your website, answering 24/7
Replies to visitors within seconds, in the language they asked in, from your own site content — and hands the conversation to a human when the question needs one.
- Answers from your pages and cites the source — it does not invent prices
- You pay for conversations, not agents: add the whole team at no cost per seat
- Every conversation is stored in the database: you rate them and improve the chatbot's answers
Instant answers, human escalation and reports
You drop the conversational assistant into your site with a single line of script, in roughly 15 minutes, and it starts answering on day one. Its knowledge base is built from your public pages, from the documents you upload and from the FAQs you write yourself, so every answer is anchored in real content and shows the source it came from. When it cannot find the information, it says so plainly and offers an agent instead of inventing prices or deadlines. The topics you mark as sensitive — complaints, returns, complex quote requests — go straight to a person, with the full conversation history attached, into a shared team inbox where you assign threads to a colleague and leave internal notes. The assistant answers on your website today, and the WhatsApp and Messenger integration is in the works — one knowledge base will serve every channel. Reports show your resolution rate without an agent, the most frequent topics, the knowledge gaps still to fill and how many AI credits you have used. Conversations are hosted in the European Union, GDPR-compliant, and the visitor is told from the first message that they are talking to an AI assistant, as required by article 50 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689. Compared with Intercom, Tidio, Zendesk or Crisp you pay for the conversations held, not for each agent added: put the whole team in the inbox at no cost per seat.
Your assistant, wired into your channels
The widget installs with a single line of script on any website — WordPress, Shopify or PrestaShop — and the WhatsApp Business and Messenger integration, currently in the works, will answer from the same knowledge base. That knowledge base is built from your site pages, your documents and the FAQs you write, and you re-index it whenever prices or opening hours change. Escalations reach your agents where they already work: a notification in Slack or Microsoft Teams, with the conversation history attached. For anything else there is a REST API, webhooks and Zapier / Make / n8n connectors — and inside the 4b2b ecosystem conversations connect to bookings (4appointments.net), invoices (4invoices.net) and SMS/WhatsApp notifications (4notify.net). You pay for conversations in AI credits, not a per-agent subscription like Intercom or Tidio. See integrations
In the works: WhatsApp and Messenger, with the same assistant
The WhatsApp Business and Messenger integration is in the works: conversations from those channels will be handled by the same assistant, from the same knowledge base as the website widget, and customers will get the same answer, with the source cited, wherever they write. Everything will land in one shared team inbox under the same escalation rules — when the assistant does not have the answer, or the customer asks for a person, the conversation moves to an agent with the full history attached. Intercom and Tidio sell messaging channels as a paid per-agent add-on; here you will pay for conversations, not for inbox seats.
You pay for conversations in AI credits, not a per-agent subscription.
What is 4chaty
4chaty is an AI chatbot for websites, online shops and service businesses. It answers visitors 24/7 using only your own content — pages, documents and FAQs — and cites the source of every answer. When it cannot find the information, or the customer asks for a person, it hands the conversation to an agent with the full history attached. It is an alternative to Intercom, Tidio and Crisp, metered in AI credits (not per agent), with conversations hosted in the European Union.
