AI customer-facing agents
Zoft vs Chatbase: customer-facing agents or one wider business operation?
Chatbase publicly focuses on customer-facing AI agents for support, sales, product guidance, knowledge, actions, and helpdesk workflows across conversational channels. Zoft’s chat product can run independently, but its intended distinction is connection to workflows, browser execution, specialist crews, voice, approvals, and shared evals.
Why teams choose Zoft: one Copilot-generated, inspectable operation spanning workflows, specialist crews, browser execution, voice, chat, approvals, and evals.

Frequently asked
Zoft vs Chatbase FAQ
Is Zoft a helpdesk replacement?
Not necessarily. Zoft can connect a chat operation to the helpdesk or human queue selected for the deployment. A helpdesk migration is a separate decision.
Can Zoft train on company knowledge?
The current chat product is designed around approved operating context and source information. Exact source types, synchronization, and availability should be confirmed for the deployment.
What should teams test?
Test source freshness, authenticated actions, policy, tool failures, human handoff, channel identity, analytics, and whether a claimed resolution completed the real task.
