Overview
Build Advanced Chatbots Visually
Typebot is a Fair Source chatbot builder designed for teams that need powerful conversational interfaces without vendor lock-in. With a visual drag-and-drop interface, you can construct sophisticated chatbot flows using 34+ building blocks—from text bubbles and media embeds to conditional logic, A/B testing, and JavaScript scripting.
Flexible Integration & Deployment
Embed your chatbots anywhere as containers, popups, or chat bubbles using a blazing-fast native JavaScript library with no iframes or external dependencies. Connect to OpenAI, Google Sheets, Stripe payments, webhooks, Zapier, Make.com, and more. Customize themes with fonts, colors, and custom CSS to match your brand identity, then deploy on custom domains.
Built for Developers and Marketers
Collect results in real-time with in-depth analytics including drop-off and completion rates, and export data to CSV. Easy-to-use APIs and HTTP execution options provide flexibility for technical teams. Choose the managed cloud service for hassle-free hosting, or self-host on your own infrastructure. Typebot adapts to any business use case—from lead generation and customer support to interactive forms and conversational surveys.
