  1. Hi! I'm Fieldnote's assistant. Ask me anything about plans or features.
  2. Can I share a notebook with someone who doesn't have an account?
  3. Yes. Share a read-only link from any notebook, and anyone with the link can view it without signing up. Editing needs an account.
An example conversation. The business and messages are samples.

In short

Add a zero-setup chat widget to your website, no tokens, just an embed. Your AI agent answers visitors with replies that stream live, and you can brand the widget, add a welcome bubble, capture a name/email before the chat, and restrict which sites may embed it. Public visitors only ever reach safe, read-only actions.

Use cases

What websites use it for

Visitors have questions while they browse. The widget answers them on the page, with replies that stream in as they're written.

  1. What's the difference between the two plans?

    Answer visitors while they browse

    Pricing, features, shipping, returns: visitors ask in the widget and get an answer right away, no login needed.

  2. I'd like a quote for 40 seats.

    Capture contact details first

    Optionally ask for a name, email or phone before the chat starts, so your team can follow up.

  3. Can you show me other customers' orders?

    Safe for the public

    Visitors can only trigger safe, read-only actions, never your inbox, CRM or finance data.

On this channel

What the widget does

  • Live streamed replies

    Guests chat with no login and see the agent's answer stream in as it's written.

  • Brand it to your site

    Set the brand color, launcher position and icon, header title and a welcome bubble; toggle the “powered by” badge.

  • Optional pre-chat capture

    Ask for a name, email or phone before the chat starts, or don't.

  • Safe by design

    Public visitors only trigger safe, read-only actions. They can never make the agent read your inbox, CRM or finance data.

  • One shared inbox

    Every message lands in the same unified inbox. AI replies live, your team can take over on any conversation and mute the AI per contact.

Setup

Embed in minutes

  1. Add the Web Chat channel

    It generates an embed for your site, no credentials to configure.

  2. Drop in the snippet

    Paste the embed onto your website; style the launcher and welcome bubble to match your brand.

  3. Restrict and go live

    Optionally set an allowed-domains list so only your sites can embed it, then it's live.

Inbox and handoff

Every conversation in one inbox, and you can always step in

Messages from Web Chat land in the same inbox as every other channel you connect. The agent answers, and your team watches, joins and takes over whenever it wants.

  • Take over any conversation with one click, and hand it back when you're done.
  • Mute the AI for a single contact while the agent keeps answering everyone else.
  • Per-channel auto-reply, an optional greeting, business hours with an out-of-hours message, and a reply rate limit.

Frequently asked

How hard is it to add?

Zero setup, add the channel and embed the widget on your site.

Can visitors trigger sensitive actions?

No. Public visitors only reach safe, read-only abilities by design, a platform-wide safety model, not a widget-only toggle.

Can I restrict which sites embed it?

Yes, set an allowed-domains list, enforced server-side.

Can I ask for contact details first?

Optionally, turn on pre-chat capture for a name, email or phone.

Can my team step in?

Yes. Every conversation lands in the shared inbox, where anyone on your team can take over, reply themselves and mute the AI for that contact.

Does it match my brand?

Yes. Set the brand color, launcher position and icon, header title and welcome bubble, and choose whether the badge shows.
