Chatwoot suits teams keeping customer conversations and AI assistance in one support workspace. Captain adds an AI layer to a platform that also offers ordinary inbox and live-chat functions. These access boundaries matter: a free inbox does not mean free AI resolution. Evaluate the selected AI feature with real support policies and a clear route to human review.
This example describes a task, not a tested output. Adjust the source material and settings to your own situation.
Use the approved delivery policy to answer a sample question. Ask for missing order context and hand off any exception request.
Result check: Verify the answer and the conversation history available to a human agent.
Chatwoot offers free inbox options, but its listed cloud Hacker plan excludes Captain AI. Eligible paid plans include limited Captain credits, with deployment and feature rules that differ between cloud and self-hosting.
