Chat Thing

What It Does

Chat Thing is an AI-powered customer support assistant that plugs into your website and answers customer questions around the clock. It learns from your existing knowledge base—help docs, FAQs, Notion pages, PDFs, and website content—then responds to inquiries automatically, freeing your team from repetitive support tasks.

Who It's For

Chat Thing is built for businesses tired of answering the same questions over and over. Whether you're a small team drowning in "What are your opening hours?" emails or a growing company needing after-hours support, Chat Thing handles the routine so you can focus on conversations that need a human touch. Over 10,000 businesses currently use the platform.

What Sets It Apart

Chat Thing emphasizes speed and simplicity—get a fully functional AI assistant running in minutes without technical expertise.
