Got a Question?

Common questions about installation, billing, security, AI, and team management — answered in plain English.

General

Is LiveVisitorHub really free?
Yes — the Free plan is genuinely free forever. No credit card required. It includes the live chat widget, real-time visitor tracking, and basic analytics for up to 100 visitors per month. Upgrade only when you outgrow it.
What makes LiveVisitorHub different from Intercom or Tawk.to?
Three things: (1) Real visitor tracking and session recording are built in — not paid add-ons. (2) The AI bot uses your own Anthropic key, so you pay providers directly with no markup. (3) Pricing is flat and predictable — no per-resolution or per-message fees. See our comparison page for the full breakdown.
How fast can I get set up?
Under 5 minutes. Sign up → copy the embed snippet → paste before </body> on your site. Visitors start showing up in your dashboard in real time.

Installation

How do I add the widget to my website?
Copy the embed code from your dashboard (Settings → Widget) and paste it just before the closing </body> tag. It's one line of JavaScript. Works with WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Webflow, React, Vue, plain HTML — anything.
Does it work on single-page apps (React, Vue, Next.js)?
Yes. The widget script automatically tracks SPA route changes via history.pushState hooks — no manual instrumentation needed. See Integrations for framework guides.
Can I track multiple websites from one account?
Yes. Each website gets its own tracking key, dashboard view, and stats. Domain-wise filtering is built into the dashboard so multi-domain customers can analyze each site independently.
Can I hide the chat widget but keep tracking?
Yes — in Widget Settings, enable "Hide chat widget (tracking-only mode)". The chat bubble disappears from your site but visitor tracking, page views, and session recordings keep running.

Billing & Plans

What's your refund policy?
14-day money-back guarantee on every paid plan. If you're not satisfied within 14 days of billing, email us for a full refund — no questions asked. See the Refund Policy for details.
Can I switch plans later?
Anytime. Upgrades take effect immediately and we prorate the difference. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing cycle.
Do you offer annual billing?
Yes. Switch to annual billing on Pricing and save 20% on Pro and Enterprise — billed once a year.
Are there hidden fees, message overages, or AI surcharges?
No. Flat price, predictable bill. The Enterprise AI bot is bring-your-own-key (Anthropic) — you pay them directly with zero markup from us.
What payment methods do you accept?
All major credit and debit cards. Enterprise customers can request invoice billing or wire transfer — contact sales.

Security & Privacy

Is my data secure?
Yes. All data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest. Sensitive fields — 2FA secrets, webhook signing keys, API keys — are individually encrypted with Fernet (AES-128-CBC + HMAC) on top of database-level encryption.
Are you GDPR compliant?
Yes. We give visitors data export and deletion endpoints, ship a configurable cookie banner, and process minimum-required data only. Your visitors' data is never sold or shared with third parties.
Do you support two-factor authentication?
Yes. Time-based OTP (Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password) plus 8 single-use backup codes per agent. Magic-link passwordless login is also available.
Where is data stored?
Primary infrastructure runs in AWS US-East and EU-West regions. Enterprise customers can request EU-only or single-region pinning.
What's your uptime SLA?
99.9% on Pro and Enterprise. Real-time chat runs on auto-failover infrastructure with Redis-backed channel layers, so a single worker outage doesn't drop messages.

AI Bot

How does the AI auto-reply bot work?
When a visitor sends a message, the bot first checks your knowledge base for a keyword match. If nothing fits and you've connected Claude (Anthropic), it sends the visitor's message plus your KB context to Claude and posts the reply. Human handoff happens automatically if confidence is low or the visitor asks for one.
Do I have to pay per AI message?
No markup from us. The AI bot uses your own Anthropic API key — you pay Anthropic directly for tokens. We charge a flat Enterprise plan price, no per-resolution fees.
Which Claude model is used?
Default is claude-haiku-4-5 — fast and cheap, great for support replies. You can switch to Sonnet or Opus per organization in AI Bot Settings.
What if Claude is down or my API key is invalid?
The bot falls back to keyword-matched knowledge base entries. If nothing matches there either, the chat is routed to a human agent automatically. No silent failures.

Teams & Agents

How many agents can use the platform?
Free: 1 agent. Pro: 5 agents. Enterprise: unlimited. All plans support multiple simultaneous chats per agent — there's no per-chat throttle.
Can I customize the chat widget colors and branding?
Yes. Widget color, position, welcome message, business hours, and custom logo are configurable from the dashboard. Pro removes the "Powered by" badge. Enterprise gets full white-label.
Do you offer customer support?
Yes — email support on Free, priority email + live chat on Pro, dedicated account manager with 24/7 phone support on Enterprise. We dogfood our own product, so chat us anytime at Contact.
Can I assign chats to specific departments?
Yes. Create departments (Sales, Support, Billing) and route chats automatically by keyword, page URL, or visitor segment. Departmental SLAs and surveys are configurable per department.
