What is Freshchat?
Freshchat is Freshworks' messaging platform for customer support, combining live chat, AI-driven bots and a shared agent inbox across web, app and messaging channels. It serves businesses that handle support conversations at scale.
Bots can be built and deployed on a website, in a native app and on messaging channels to answer common questions before a human steps in. Agents work from one workspace that shows past purchases, open issues and conversations from every channel, and proactive messages can reach customers before they ask.
Freshchat can be upgraded to Freshdesk Omni, which adds ticketing, knowledge bases, email and voice. A free trial is available, and pricing is listed on the Freshworks pricing page.
