Move from LiveChat to Assistify

Your help center, website chat and integrations can move during the free trial. Past chats stay in LiveChat.

  1. 1

    Help center

    Add your help center’s address, on KnowledgeBase or any other tool. Aiva answers from its pages at once, and your team can import the pages as articles.

  2. 2

    Webchat

    Replace the LiveChat chat widget code with the Webchat script, or follow the steps for your store platform.

  3. 3

    Integrations

    Connect your store with its API credentials, and your own systems through the custom API integration.

  4. 4

    Chat history

    Past chats stay in LiveChat, which exports them as CSV files of up to 100 000 records each. Assistify’s record starts with the first conversation on Webchat.

Questions about switching from LiveChat

Is LiveChat the same product as Text?

No. LiveChat’s pricing page sells Text plans to new accounts, Text being the platform from the company behind LiveChat, and existing LiveChat customers keep their LiveChat plans. This page compares the Text plans.

I am on a legacy LiveChat plan. Does this comparison apply?

Legacy LiveChat plans cost from $19 to $79 per person a month billed annually and include no AI agent: LiveChat sells its AI Agent with the Text plans this page compares.

Can I bring my LiveChat chat history?

No. LiveChat exports chats as CSV files, and Assistify does not import conversations. Contacts appear in Assistify when customers write to your team or your website identifies them.

How does Aiva’s billing differ from the AI Agent’s?

Assistify counts each conversation Aiva answers once against the conversations your plan includes, 250 on Pro and 600 on Business, then charges €0.45 or €0.30 for each further one. Text includes 10 AI resolutions a month on Essential and 200 on Growth, then charges $49.50 per 50.

Does Assistify include a help center?

Yes, on Business: your public articles at your own domain, where customers can start a conversation from any page. LiveChat’s help center product, KnowledgeBase, is sold separately at $49 a month billed annually.

Where is my data hosted?

Assistify runs in the European Union on every plan, and Aiva’s replies are generated by AI providers in the United States under Standard Contractual Clauses. Text runs on Google Cloud in the United States and in Frankfurt, and its data processing agreement is with Text, Inc., in the United States.

Which LiveChat features have no equivalent in Assistify?

WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger, email and SMS channels, add to cart in chat and sales attributed to chats, chat inside your mobile app, native mobile and desktop apps, and support around the clock.

Can I try Assistify before leaving LiveChat?

Yes. The 14-day trial includes Aiva and every add-on without a card, and the Free plan keeps Webchat and the shared inbox for 2 seats with no time limit. See pricing
