Go from nothing to a working support widget and feedback board in your app in about ten minutes.
Before you start#
- A card for the Pro or Team plan, billed monthly or yearly. There’s no free plan and no waiting list: you sign up and pay to switch your workspace on. See Plans & billing.
- Access to your app’s HTML or layout template, to paste a script tag.
There’s nothing to install or host: Relay runs on our servers.
Steps#
Sign up and choose a plan
Pick Pro or Team on the pricing page (switch to Yearly for two months free) and choose Get started. Create your account with Google or an emailed link, then give your workspace a name. Usually that’s your company or product: customers see it in the widget and on your help center.
Pay to switch it on
You’ll go straight to a secure checkout run by our payment partner, Dodo Payments, which takes the payment, handles tax and sends your invoice. When it’s confirmed (usually a few seconds) your inbox opens at
/inbox.Make it yours
In Inbox → Settings, set your brand name, accent color, greeting and the agent name your customers will see. The widget and the feedback board both pick these up automatically.
Write a help article
In Inbox → Knowledge base, add an article for a question you answer often. The bot answers from published articles, so even a handful makes a difference. See Writing articles.
Install the support widget
Paste this before the closing
</body>tag of your app. Copy it from Inbox → Settings → Install, which fills in your address and your workspace key (thedata-key):html<script> window.RelaySettings = { userId: currentUser.id, // optional name: currentUser.name, // optional email: currentUser.email // optional }; </script> <script src="https://support.notaislop.xyz/widget.js" data-key="wk_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" async></script>Install the feedback board
Put the board wherever you want it, for example on a “Feedback” or “Roadmap” page of your app:
html<div id="relay-feedback"></div> <script> window.RelayFeedbackSettings = { userId: currentUser.id, name: currentUser.name }; </script> <script src="https://support.notaislop.xyz/feedback.js" data-key="wk_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX" async></script>Try it as a customer
Open your app, ask the widget a question and tap Talk to a human. The conversation appears at the top of Inbox → Open. Reply, and watch it arrive live in the widget. Then post an idea on the board and see it in Inbox → Feedback board.
