Integrations Overview

Connect your AI agent to messaging platforms, productivity tools, payment services, and more

Integrations Overview#

Connect your AI agent to the platforms where your customers are. AlonChat integrates with messaging apps, email, Google productivity tools, payment providers, and more.


Messaging Channels#

Deploy your agent across multiple platforms from the Deploy page in your agent dashboard.

Telegram is not deployed from this page. It connects under AI Assistant > Channels — see the Telegram guide.


Comment and Review Auto-Reply#

Your agent can reply to comments on your social media posts. This is available for Facebook and Instagram.

SettingOptionsDescription
ModeOff / Draft / AutoOff does nothing, Draft creates a reply for you to approve, Auto sends without approval
DetectionsQuestions / MentionsChoose which comment signals can trigger a reply

Replies route through Human Review, so you stay in control of what goes live. Configure this on the Comments sub-page for each connected Facebook Page or Instagram account (Deploy > Facebook Messenger > Comments, or Deploy > Instagram > Comments).


Agent Studio Tools#

Your agent can use tools during conversations, not just answer questions. Tools are used when the AI detects the right intent, confirms details with the user, and then executes.

Email Integration#

AlonChat supports email in two ways:

  1. Gmail (OAuth) -- Connect your Gmail account directly for full read and reply capabilities.
  2. Email forwarding -- Forward emails from Outlook, Yahoo, or any provider to your agent's unique forwarding address.

Your agent drafts email replies for you to approve and maintains full thread context. It never sends automatically.

Web Widget and Help Page#

Two ways to deploy your agent directly on your website:

Chat Widget#

Copy the exact widget code from Deploy > Chat widget > Embed and paste it before the closing </body> tag on your site. The snippet is a self-contained IIFE that loads embed.min.js from your AlonChat origin with your agent ID; copy it from the dashboard rather than retyping it by hand.

Widget setup guide

Help Page#

A standalone branded help center hosted at alonchat.com/help/{agentId} with your logo, colors, suggested questions, and resource links.

Help Page guide


Webhooks#

Send real-time data to external systems when events occur in AlonChat:

  • leads.submit -- New lead captured
  • message.sent -- AI message sent
  • tool.executed -- AI action completed successfully
  • booking.created -- Calendar booking created
  • order.confirmed -- Customer order confirmed
  • custom_form.submitted -- Custom form submitted
  • payment.verified -- Payment approved

Webhooks use the x-alonchat-signature header (SHA-256 HMAC) for verification and include an x-alonchat-delivery-id for deduplication.

Webhook and REST API settings are available on Business and Enterprise plans. Active trials can test gated features during the trial, subject to trial limits.

Webhooks guide


API#

Build custom integrations using the AlonChat REST API at https://alonchat.com/api/v1/.

API access uses the same Business and Enterprise gate as webhooks.
