Get found and never miss a customerQuestions answered on your website

Website chatbots, so customer questions get answered, even at 10 pm.

A website chatbot from Alpine Ops is a chat assistant on your site that answers customers' general questions from your own information: services, hours, service area and the policies you give it. When someone needs more, it takes their name, contact info and what they need, sends you a summary right away, and hands off to a person. It's the website twin of our AI phone answering.

01What it is

The questions you answer all day, answered on your website.

A website chatbot is a small chat window on your site that answers common customer questions and takes down what the customer needs, any time of day.

Customers often browse in the evening, after you've closed. If your site can't answer "Do you do this?" or "Are you open Saturday?", many of them move on to the next site instead of waiting to call. A chatbot gives them the answer from your own information, and when they're ready, it gets their details to you.

Who it's for

  • Shops and retail
  • Auto and repair shops
  • Clinics and offices
  • Contractors
  • Restaurants
  • Field service
  • Professional services

02Example chat

A customer asks after hours. You get a summary, ready to act on.

Here is a chat on the website of a made-up auto shop. The chatbot answers from the shop's own facts, takes the request, and sends the owner a short summary.

Example: a chat on an auto shop's website

Brakes, and a Saturday question.

03Its twin

The same help, whether customers call or type.

Website chatbots and AI phone answering are twins. They handle the same kinds of requests from the same facts about your business: one on your phone line, one on your website.

04What you get

A chat assistant that knows your business, and knows its limits.

We set it up with your facts, test it with the questions your customers actually ask, and keep it current.

  • Answers from your information

    Services, hours, service area and the policies you provide.

  • The customer's details

    Name, contact info and what they need, taken in the chat.

  • A summary right away

    Short and readable, so you can follow up fast.

  • A hand-off to a person

    When a customer needs a human, it passes them to you.

  • No guessing

    When a question goes past your information, it takes the details instead of making something up.

  • Kept current

    New hours or a new service? We update what it knows.

Booking

Booking can be included. If your business uses appointment scheduling, it can book times right in the chat. If not, it takes the request and sends it to you, so you stay in charge of your schedule.

Questions owners ask about website chatbots.

See every question
7.1What can a website chatbot answer?

General questions and inquiries, from your own information: your services, hours, service area and the policies you give it. Things like "Are you open Saturday?", "Do you work in Roosevelt?" or "Do you fix this kind of thing?"

7.2What happens when it doesn't know the answer?

It's set up to answer from your information, not to guess. When a question goes beyond that, it takes the customer's name, contact info and question, and sends it to you so a person can follow up.

7.3Can it book appointments?

Yes, if your build includes appointment scheduling. We connect it to your scheduling so customers can book a time right in the chat. If you'd rather confirm times yourself, it takes the request and sends you a summary instead.

7.4How is it related to AI phone answering?

They're twins. Both handle the same kinds of requests from the same facts about your business. Our AI phone answering works on your phone line, and the chatbot works on your website.

7.5Will it work on my current website?

We'll look at your current site during the free consult and tell you plainly how the chat would fit, whether that's on the site you have now or as part of a new one.

7.6How much does a website chatbot cost?

It's quoted up front, before anything starts. It can be its own project or part of a larger build, and you know the exact price before we begin.
