About

Chatbase is a platform for building and operating AI agents that handle customer-facing conversations. It addresses a common problem for support and sales teams: high volumes of repetitive inquiries across chat, email, and phone that consume staff time. With Chatbase, a business connects its own data sources, defines what the agent should do, and deploys it across channels to resolve customer issues end to end.

The product follows a four-step lifecycle: build (connect data and set guardrails with no coding), test (run realistic customer scenarios before launch), deploy (publish to chat, WhatsApp, email, Slack, and other channels), and optimize (review resolution rates and escalations). Agents can take real actions, such as looking up Shopify orders or managing Stripe refunds and subscriptions, and they work in more than 95 languages. Chatbase states that over 10,000 businesses use the platform, and it is SOC 2 Type II audited, GDPR compliant, and HIPAA-eligible on the Enterprise plan.

Key Features

Customer support agent: Resolves complex support queries across live chat, email, phone, and Slack, reducing ticket volume handled by human staff.
Sales and product guidance agents: Engage prospects, answer product questions, and help existing customers find information in a consistent brand voice.
Procedures and actions: Agents follow plain-language step-by-step procedures and execute built-in actions such as order lookups, invoice retrieval, and subscription changes.
Multi-channel deployment: One agent can be published to website chat, WhatsApp, email, Slack, Messenger, Instagram, and voice from a single configuration.
AI plus human helpdesk: A shared inbox lets AI agents and human agents work from the same conversation, with escalation between them.
Model choice: Users can select from models by OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Mistral, Moonshot AI, and Z.ai in a testing playground.
Analytics and back-office tools: Reporting covers topics, sentiment, and trends, and a "Backstage" assistant lets teams query customer issues and apply fixes.
