AI agent + CRMOvernight, it greets them.

An AI agent for your website that answers, qualifies and fills your CRM

Built for small businesses, your AI agent answers website visitors from your own content, day and night, in English, French or Spanish. It asks your questions, collects contact details at the right moment and sends every request to your CRM. Your team can take over the chat at any time.

  • No commitment
  • One line of code or Google Tag Manager
  • Data hosted in Canada

Its answers

It answers from your content, not from guesswork

You give it your information and your limits; it answers in your tone and stays away from what you rule out: made-up prices, diagnoses, delivery promises.

  • Instructions and knowledge base

    Role, tone, limits and key facts (hours, services, prices), on every plan.

  • Exact answers

    For what must never change (address, return policy): the answer is sent word for word, without AI.

  • Your web pages and documents Pro and up

    Index your site from its sitemap and upload PDF, Word, Excel or text files; scanned PDFs are read too.

  • The page the visitor is on Pro and up

    The agent takes the current page into account.

  • Pages kept up to date Business and up

    Selected pages are re-read daily, weekly or monthly.

Qualification

It asks your questions and collects contact details at the right time

Nobody likes a form in the first second. The agent helps first, then asks what you need to follow up.

  • Your qualifying questions

    Party size, budget, date, project type: write them in its instructions and it asks them as the chat goes.

  • Contact details when it makes sense

    A short form after the number of messages you choose, a pre-chat form, or the form the agent shows when a visitor asks for a call back or a quote.

  • Never asked twice

    If the visitor already typed an email or phone number, they become a lead and the form does not come back.

  • The fields you need

    Name, email, phone, company, job title, message.

  • After hours

    A dedicated message and form, so no request is lost.

  • Structured questionnaire Beta

    Up to 15 questions one at a time, a summary the visitor confirms, a complete file for your team.

AI agent + CRM

Every qualified request becomes a CRM record

That is what sets ChatDirect apart from a stand-alone chatbot: nothing to connect, nothing to copy. As soon as a visitor leaves an email or phone number, the contact is created in the built-in CRM with everything you need to call back.

Explore the CRM

  • The full conversation on the record

    You know what the customer asked before you dial.

  • Your team is notified

    By email, in the portal, on Slack, and by push notification in the mobile app (coming soon to the app stores).

  • “My day”, the next morning

    Last night’s new leads at the top, with today’s and overdue activities.

  • Then the CRM takes over

Live chat

Your team can take over the conversation anytime

The AI agent is not on its own: you choose who answers, the AI, your team or both.

  • Three modes

    Bot only, human only, or hybrid: the agent answers and a teammate steps in whenever needed.

    The visitor asks for a person and you get an alert; if nobody is available, an offline message lets them know.

  • Full history in view

    Pick up where the agent left off; the visitor sees that a team member joined the chat.

  • Saved replies and AI summary

    Canned replies in one click; a conversation summary (Pro and up).

  • From your phone

    Reply live in the ChatDirect app for iOS and Android, coming soon to the app stores.

At the right time

It makes the first move and points to the booking

The agent does not always wait to be asked. And when the visitor is ready, it shows them the next step.

  • Proactive messages

    On the pages you pick, after the delay you set, the chat opens with your message; for example on your pricing page: “Questions about our plans?”.

  • Your booking link Pro and up

    The agent shares your Calendly, Cal.com or Google Calendar page; for restaurants, OpenTable, Libro or Resy. Visitors pick their time slot in your booking tool. Included in the trial.

  • Three languages

    The widget displays in English, French or Spanish; in multilingual mode, the agent replies in the visitor’s language.

  • Follow-up suggestions

    Two or three one-click questions after each answer.

  • Files and photos

    Visitors can attach a file to their message.

Channels

On your website, and where your customers already message you

The same agent, the same instructions, and every lead lands in the same CRM.

  • Your website

    The widget, on every plan.

  • QR code Pro and up

    On a storefront, a menu or a business card: one scan opens the chat with a context-specific greeting.

  • Review Booster Pro and up

    In the chat, the agent asks for a 1-to-5 rating and shares your Google review link; an unhappy customer can also write to you privately.

FAQ

AI agent questions

What is the difference between an AI agent and a chatbot?

A classic chatbot follows a button script. ChatDirect’s AI agent understands free-form questions, answers from your content and acts inside ChatDirect: it asks your qualifying questions, shows the form at the right time, creates the contact in your CRM, alerts your team and shares your booking link. It does not act on its own in your other software: it does not book a slot for you or send follow-up emails.

Can the agent make mistakes or make things up?

Like any AI, it can be wrong. Keep your content up to date, tell it what it must not do (invent a price, give a diagnosis), use exact answers for facts that never change and review conversations in your portal. Your team can take over at any time.

Do visitors know they are talking to an AI?

Yes, by default: every AI reply carries the “AI Agent” label, and your team’s messages do not. You can customize the text; we recommend always making it clear that visitors are talking to an AI.

Which AI model does it use?

Every plan, including the free trial, uses Anthropic’s Claude Haiku 5.5. From the Pro plan, BYOK lets you use your own key with Anthropic, OpenAI, Google or Mistral and pick the model; conversations become unlimited because you pay the provider directly.

Do I need a WordPress or Shopify plugin?

No. Paste one line of code before your site’s tag, or add it through Google Tag Manager. It works on WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow and custom sites.

What does the free trial include?

Fourteen days and 250 AI messages, no commitment: the AI agent, the knowledge base, contact capture, live chat, the booking link and the CRM. Indexed web pages and documents, the QR code, Review Booster and BYOK start with the Pro plan.

Where is conversation data stored?

Conversations and contacts are hosted in Canada; connections are encrypted (HTTPS), and API keys and passwords are encrypted with AES-256. To generate replies, message content is sent to the AI provider you choose. ChatDirect offers settings designed to help you meet Quebec’s Law 25, PIPEDA and GDPR requirements: consent, IP anonymization, zero-cookie mode and retention period.

Tonight, your website can already answer your customers.
