The Problem

Visitors leave without saying a word

Most visitors browse your site in silence. They have questions but don't bother clicking the chat widget. By the time they leave, it's too late. You've lost the sale or the signup because you never started the conversation.

98% of visitors never engage
Unanswered questions = lost sales
Exit intent goes undetected
How it works

Start conversations automatically

1

Set your rules

Create rules based on URL patterns. Show different messages on pricing, checkout, or documentation pages. Target the right message to the right context.

"Can I help you find..."

2

Configure timing

Choose when to show the message: after a delay (5s, 10s, 30s) or on exit intent when the visitor moves to close the tab.

Write your message

Craft a friendly, contextual message. On pricing: "Questions about plans?" On checkout: "Need help with your order?" Make it relevant.
