    About Tawk.to

    tawk.to is live chat and customer messaging software. A chat widget on your website lets visitors message you, and a shared inbox brings in chat, WhatsApp, Messenger, email, SMS and voice.

    AI automations answer routine questions around the clock and hand over to a person when needed. A knowledge base lets customers search for answers themselves.

    A CRM builds a contact record from each conversation, and a pipeline tracks deals, orders or applications.

    Pricing: The core tawk.to platform is free. Paid add-ons include removing the tawk.to branding, an AI assistant, and hired chat agents billed by the hour. See their website for current add-ons.
