What is Float Bot?

Float Bot is a customer service chatbot designed to handle inquiries automatically around the clock. It responds to customer questions without human intervention, reducing the need for large support teams. The bot learns from your existing customer interactions and can be configured to match your brand's tone and policies. It works across multiple channels, so customers can reach you through their preferred platform. The freemium model means you can test it with basic features before committing to a paid plan, making it accessible for small businesses and startups that need customer support but have limited budgets.
