v3

We have decided to put Chatness in a new direction. We are now focused on providing a comprehensive solution for chat bots and support systems.

Solutions

The platform includes three key components: the Admin panel, the Launcher widget, and the Installer desktop app.

  • The Admin panel is a powerful tool that provides users with full control over their chat bots and support systems. It allows you to manage other users, configure bot prompts, and perform other administrative tasks. With the Admin panel, users can easily customize and fine-tune their chat bots to suit their specific needs and requirements.

  • The Launcher widget is a versatile feature that can be embedded into any website, allowing users to initiate a conversation with their chat bot seamlessly. This user-friendly widget provides a seamless interface for users to engage with the chat bot and get the assistance they need in a convenient and efficient manner.

  • The Installer is a desktop free application that simplifies the setup, deployment and updates of the Chatness Platform on Google Cloud. This automated tool eliminates the need for complex manual configurations, making it easy for users to get started with Chatness quickly and effortlessly.

Together, these three components work harmoniously to provide a comprehensive and complete solution for support and chat bots.
