Foxchat

A lightweight, affordable alternative to Intercom. Live chat widget for websites with Slack integration. Reply to customers from Slack in real-time.

Foxchat is a lightweight, affordable alternative to Intercom, Crisp, and Drift — built for indie hackers, startups, and small teams who live in Slack. It's a lightweight live chat widget you add to your website. Visitors chat through a bubble on your site, and your team replies directly from Slack in real-time. No bloated dashboards, no seat-based pricing traps.

How It Works

A visitor clicks the chat bubble on your site and sends a message. That message shows up in your Slack channel instantly. You reply in Slack, and they see your response on your website in real-time. No extra dashboards, no new apps to monitor, no context switching.

For small teams and founders who live in Slack, this means you can offer real-time support without adding another tool to check. Your customers get fast answers, and you never miss a conversation.

Foxchat works with any website including Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, React, and custom-built sites. Setup takes less than 5 minutes.

Features

  • Slack Integration: When a visitor messages you, it shows up in Slack. Reply right there, and they see it on your site instantly. No new dashboard to check. Support happens where you already work.
  • Lightweight: Foxchat loads fast and stays out of the way. A tiny script that won't slow down your site or annoy your visitors. No bloated code. Just a clean, snappy chat widget.
  • Customizable Design: Make it yours. Match colors to your brand, tweak the position, change the welcome message. Your chat widget should look like it belongs on your site, not some third-party add-on.
