Live Helper Chat is an open-source, self-hosted live support chat application for websites, featuring voice, video, screen sharing, co-browsing, and mobile apps. It supports bot integrations with AI services like OpenAI, Ollama, Gemini, Rasa, and DeepPavlov, plus messaging channels such as Telegram, WhatsApp (Twilio), and Facebook Messenger.

Use cases

  • add live support chat to my website
  • self-host a customer support chat widget
  • build a chatbot for customer service with OpenAI or Ollama
  • handle WhatsApp and Telegram support conversations in one place
  • offer voice and video calls with screen sharing to website visitors
  • route website visitors to support operators with proactive chat invitations
  • integrate a Rasa or DeepPavlov AI bot into live chat

When to choose

  • you need a free, self-hosted live chat with full data control and GDPR compliance
  • you want built-in voice, video, and screen sharing without building it yourself
  • you need multi-channel support (Telegram, WhatsApp, Messenger) unified in one operator dashboard
  • you want to plug AI bots (ChatGPT, Ollama, Rasa) into customer support workflows
  • you handle high chat volume (10,000+ chats/day) and need proven scalability

When to avoid

  • you need a lightweight embeddable widget without running your own PHP/MySQL server
  • your stack is Node.js or Python and you prefer a natively integrated solution
  • you want a fully managed SaaS with zero infrastructure to maintain
  • you need enterprise ticketing or helpdesk features beyond live chat
