How it will work
From AI to a person, in the same chat.
Coming in Business: a person from your team steps into the conversation, and the visitor sees who took over. Until then, the enquiry form reaches your team.
- Can I talk to someone about a big order?
- Anna from Sales joined the chat
- Anna · Hi, I'm Anna. How many trays do you need, and for which day?
Why it matters
Live chat handover: the problem it solves.
Some buyers are ready now. Making them wait for an email reply loses the moment.
Live chat handover puts a person in the conversation while the visitor is still there — without a separate live-chat tool.
How it works
Three steps.
The assistant hands over
A locked topic, no answer, or a request for a person.
A teammate takes over
Everyone online sees the waiting visitor and what they are viewing.
They talk live
The visitor sees who they are talking to; hand back to the assistant any time.
What’s included
The details.
One tool, not two
The same chat, the same Desk, the same ticket.
Nobody online?
The enquiry form, as always — no visitor is left waiting.
