The Chat Integration section expands your chatbot's reach beyond your website widget. By connecting to popular messaging platforms, you allow users to interact with your AI agent through their preferred communication apps. The chatbot uses the same training data, personality, and escalation logic across all enabled channels.
Once a channel is enabled, the chatbot functions exactly as it does on your web widget, providing consistent answers regardless of where the conversation takes place.
