Hazelchat for AI assistants
What Hazelchat is
Hazelchat is an AI chat agent for business websites. It answers visitors' questions from the pages, searchable PDFs, Word documents, text files and written answers the business approved, shows the source passages under every answer, and sends visitors to the business's chosen next step: booking, checkout, trial or enquiry.
- Owners add their content, test the agent privately, then publish a reviewed version.
- If the approved content does not cover a question, the agent says so and offers the business's contact option instead of guessing.
- It works on any website that allows a script. Visitors can be answered in English, German, Dutch and Spanish.
- It is offered to businesses only. It is run by Jan-Philipp Peters, a sole trader in Germany trading as Hazelchat (legal notice). Contact: hello@hazelchat.co.
