What EzyConn adds for Chatfuel teams
EzyConn answers on the website, WhatsApp, Telegram, email and a phone line, from your own website pages and uploaded documents, and it shows the source for each answer.
When EzyConn wins
Most of your traffic lands on your website, you want AI deflection on web chat, and your team works in Slack rather than living inside Chatfuel's flow builder all day.
How to move from Chatfuel without breaking your Meta flows
You don't have to rip Chatfuel out on day one. We usually tell teams to run both for a couple of weeks and cut over once the numbers make sense. Here's the order that keeps the migration boring, which is exactly what you want.
- Point your website widget at EzyConn first and connect your help docs so the AI has something real to answer from. Leave Chatfuel running your Instagram and WhatsApp flows untouched.
- Rebuild your two or three highest-traffic Chatfuel flows as EzyConn decision trees. Don't port everything. Most teams find half their old flows were never used.
- Connect WhatsApp to EzyConn once the web side is stable, then compare reply quality side by side for a week.
- Turn off the Chatfuel flows one channel at a time. If something regresses, you flip a single channel back, not the whole setup.
A realistic example
Say you run a skincare brand doing about 4,000 support conversations a month. Roughly 2,600 start on your website (product questions, order status, returns) and 1,400 come through Instagram DMs and comment triggers. On Chatfuel you were paying for the Meta side but bolting on a separate web widget, and your web chat had no real AI, so agents handled almost all 2,600 web conversations by hand.
Move the web side to EzyConn with your docs and returns policy loaded, and the multi-model AI (GPT-4o and Claude) can resolve a large share of those product and order-status questions before a human ever sees them. Keep Chatfuel for the Instagram side. Your biggest channel by volume deserves real AI, not a basic widget. Our flat pricing also means that as web volume grows, your bill doesn't.
FAQs
Is there a free way to try EzyConn first?
Yes. The free plan includes 2 seats and 500 messages a month, so you can wire up your website widget and judge reply quality before you pay anything.
