The problem
Why needing a developer to launch a chatbot hurts your business
Most teams stall because they need engineering hours and a staging environment just to go live.
Slow response times
Customers expect answers in seconds, but waiting on a developer to set up a chatbot takes days. Every delay increases the chance a customer leaves or escalates.
Scaling costs
As volume grows, the only way to keep up without a no-code tool is hiring more staff. Each new hire needs onboarding, training, and ongoing management.
Inconsistent answers
Different agents give different answers to the same question. Without a single source of truth, customers get conflicting information that erodes trust.
How it works
How Chatref launches a chatbot without code
Train on your own content
Add help articles, product docs, FAQs, or paste your website URL. Chatref accepts PDF, DOCX, TXT, CSV, and Markdown files and learns from them.
Customize the chatbot
Set custom instructions to control tone, language, and behavior. Choose which AI model powers it. Turn on human handoff so it escalates when it cannot resolve a question.
Deploy and start answering
Add a single script tag to your website and the chat widget goes live on every page, answering instantly from your own content. Also available on WhatsApp and Shopify.
In detail
The details.
Why grounded answers matter
Most chatbots use scripted decision trees or search the public internet. Both fail in practice - scripted flows cannot handle unexpected questions, and internet search returns generic information that does not apply to your business.
Chatref answers only from your uploaded content. It finds the most relevant parts of your knowledge first, then writes a reply grounded in that information. If the answer is not in your content, Chatref says so instead of guessing.
Human handoff when it matters
Not every question should be handled by AI. Chatref has built-in human handoff that detects when a conversation needs a person and routes it to your team, capturing the customer's email automatically.
You control when handoff triggers, per chatbot. The full conversation history is preserved, so your team has complete context without asking the customer to repeat themselves.
Deploy across every channel
- Website widget. Embed on any page with a single script tag. Works with WordPress, Shopify, Next.js, Webflow, and custom sites.
- WhatsApp. Connect your WhatsApp business number so customers get the same answers on their preferred channel.
- Shopify. Native Shopify integration with product catalog sync for e-commerce support.
- Mobile. A mobile app for managing conversations and monitoring performance on the go.
