Today we’re releasing the new Flow XO Web Messenger, an embeddable chat interface that enables any visitor to message you directly from your website or web app.
It works in harmony with our new widget, which embeds a simple little control on your site that lets the visitor see the various messengers that you have a presence on (now including web) and connect easily.
Have a read of our launch article on Medium:
What’s really great about our new messenger is that it’s ‘just another channel’. Simply create a web bot, paste the code onto your website and your web messenger will work exactly like your other bots in Facebook Messenger, Slack, SMS or Telegram. It supports cards, images and shortcuts. Flow XO has always worked hard to be truly cross-platform (it’s important for businesses), and this is no exception.
In addition to these 2 brilliant new features, we’ve also just unveiled a much simpler and more powerful Broadcast Service (to replace our Push and Feeds Services), and are bringing you a revamped set of templates to help you to put a useful bot together faster than ever.
Lots of improvements to come as we work to take the web messenger out of beta in the next few weeks.
