Chatbase

What is Chatbase?

Chatbase is a platform for building custom AI-powered chatbots. You connect your own data sources — such as website content or documents — to train a chatbot, then embed it on your website or integrate it elsewhere via APIs. You have control over the chatbot’s appearance and behavior so it matches your brand.

The platform is designed to help capture leads, and it sends daily email updates about conversations and incoming leads. Chatbase also integrates with popular tools like Zapier, Slack, and Messenger.

Standout features include:

• Customizable chatbot behavior and appearance
• Lead collection setup
• Connections to a range of third-party tools
• Training on your own data
• A choice of several AI models, including GPT-4 and GPT-4-Turbo

Chatbase offers plans that scale with your needs, with different levels of message credits, chatbot counts, and team member access. Add-ons such as automatic credit recharging and custom domains let you tailor your plan further.
