Hand off to your team, with the whole conversation

Take over live from the inbox during office hours, or send the conversation to email, Zendesk, Gorgias, Freshdesk, Slack or your own webhook. Shoppers are always told when a person joins.

Live takeover

Your team sees live conversations in the inbox and can take over any of them. The assistant steps back, and the shopper is told that a person has joined. When your team hands back, the chat says the AI assistant is back.

Office hours

Live chat is only offered when someone can answer. Outside office hours the assistant offers to send the conversation to your team by email or helpdesk instead.

Handoff targets

  • Email with the transcript
  • Zendesk, Gorgias and Freshdesk tickets
  • Slack notifications
  • PrestaShop Customer Service threads
  • An outgoing webhook to your own system

Every delivery states the shopper's identity level and whether the email is verified. Unverified emails are marked, so your team checks before sharing order details. Conversations you hand off are sent to your helpdesk under your own agreement with that service.

Transcripts and CSAT

Shoppers can have the transcript emailed to them and rate the conversation.

Frequently asked questions

Do shoppers know when they talk to a person?

Yes. The chat always says "You're now chatting with a person" when someone from your team joins, and says so again when the AI takes over.

What does my team see in a handoff?

The transcript, an AI-generated summary marked as such, and whether the shopper's identity and email are verified.

Which helpdesks are supported?

Email on every plan, plus Zendesk, Gorgias, Freshdesk, Slack, PrestaShop Customer Service and an outgoing webhook. Plan availability is on the pricing page.
