AnswerKit

For small businesses

Customer questions, answered while you work.

AnswerKit reads your website and answers customer questions in a chat on your site, day or night. Every answer shows where it came from, and when a question needs you, it takes a message for your team.

The chat in the corner of this page is AnswerKit, answering from its own help pages. Ask it what happens when it does not know an answer, or how it passes a customer to a person.

01

Answers from what you have already written

Your hours, prices, policies, and FAQs are already on your website. AnswerKit answers from them and links to the page it used. When your site does not cover a question, it says so instead of making something up.

Hours and location

We are open Tuesday to Saturday, 9am to 6pm, and until 8pm on Thursdays.

Gets you when it matters

Money, complaints, special requests, or anything it is not sure about: AnswerKit offers to pass the conversation to you. With the customer's permission, you get their email and a short summary, so you can reply without asking them to start over.

Up and running in an afternoon

  1. Give it your website

    Enter your website address. AnswerKit reads your pages, and when you update your site, one click brings it up to date.

  2. Add the chat to your site

    Paste one line, or send it to whoever looks after your website. It works with most site builders that allow custom code, and it picks up your logo and colours.

  3. See what people asked

    Check the questions it could not answer, add those answers to your site, and it will know them next time.

Coming next: texts and phone calls

You stay in charge

AnswerKit answers only from your own website, and links to the page every time. It cannot make bookings, give discounts, or issue refunds. Those go to you.

Next, text messages and phone calls, answered the same way and kept in one place, with a message for your team whenever a customer needs a call back. Until you trust it, replies can wait for your OK before they go out.
