Audience
E-shops, small and medium businesses, agencies and service providers that want an AI chat and customer support on their own hosting
About thatChat
thatChat is a self-hosted AI chat and customer-support platform for websites and online stores. Businesses deploy it on compatible PHP hosting, a VPS, Docker, or their own server, then add a chat widget that answers visitor questions using website content, documents, and a knowledge base. Features include FAQ responses, lead capture, appointment requests, e-commerce product questions, conversation history, and handoff from AI to human operators. Teams can connect their own AI provider API keys, including OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, Groq, and other OpenAI-compatible endpoints; provider routing and fallback are supported. WordPress and PrestaShop modules are available, along with a REST API and webhooks. Conversations and knowledge data remain on the customer’s infrastructure, while AI usage is billed separately by the selected provider. An operator mobile app supports managing and replying to conversations.

ClerkChat
ClerkChat is a hosted AI support chatbot for small and mid-sized businesses. It ingests a company's existing material — public website pages, help documentation, PDFs and internal standard operating procedures — and uses that content to answer customer questions through a chat widget embedded on the site.
The agent is designed to run unattended outside business hours. When a question falls outside what it can answer confidently, or when a customer asks for a person, the conversation is handed off to a human agent rather than looping. Conversation history is retained so the handoff includes context.
Setup does not require engineering work. A business points ClerkChat at its site and documents, reviews the generated knowledge base, and installs a script tag. Common use cases include pre-sales questions, enrolment and booking enquiries, order and policy questions, and deflecting repetitive tickets from a small support team.
