Get your Chili Piper alternative now — Live in 4 minutes

An agent with its own calendar that reads the email, proposes a time, books the event, and sends the confirmation — without you opening a tab.

Routing the lead vs working the lead

Chili Piper exists to compress the gap between a form fill and a meeting on the right rep's calendar. A prospect hits submit, Chili Piper qualifies and routes them by territory or round-robin, and offers a calendar then and there. For a high-volume inbound funnel where speed-to-lead is the metric the whole team is judged on, that distribution layer is the product, and it does it well.

Fasrad isn't a router sitting in front of your funnel. It's a hosted agent with its own inbox and its own Google Calendar. When an email comes in asking to talk, it reads the actual thread, checks your real availability, proposes a specific slot, books the event, and replies with the confirmation. The booking is one step inside a job it finishes — not a widget the prospect has to drive themselves.

Where the line falls:

Pick Chili Piper if your problem is distributing a firehose of inbound across a sales team in seconds. Pick Fasrad if your problem is that the meetings, replies, and follow-ups still land on one person who has to do them by hand.

Frequently asked questions

Is Fasrad a scheduling tool like Chili Piper?

Not exactly. Chili Piper is a routing-and-booking layer for inbound forms. Fasrad is an agent that happens to have a calendar — it reads the email asking to meet, picks a time, books it, and replies. The booking is something it does, not a widget your visitor operates.

Can Fasrad route leads across a sales team like Chili Piper does?

No, and this is where Chili Piper is the right tool. It does round-robin and territory-based distribution across many reps with sub-minute speed-to-lead, tied into Salesforce or HubSpot ownership rules. Fasrad books on one agent's calendar; it has no multi-rep routing. If distributing a high-volume inbound firehose is your problem, use Chili Piper, not Fasrad.

Does Fasrad connect to my Salesforce or HubSpot?

Fasrad has its own CRM, contacts, groups, interactions, and notes, plus private datastores it can build and query. It does not sync into Salesforce or HubSpot as the system of record, so if your pipeline must live there, Chili Piper fits that stack better.

Where can people book with it?

By email, through the public embed chatbot on your site, in web chat at fasrad.com, or via the agent's Telegram bot. A new email or a captured lead can trigger the agent automatically.

What happens after the meeting is booked?

It logs the contact and interaction, files a note, and can prep a briefing from the prior email thread before the call. If a request goes quiet, it follows up on its own a few days later.

How much does it cost?

$49/month or $490/year — cancel anytime. Setup takes about four minutes — connect a calendar and inbox, state your rules in plain language, and the agent starts booking. Public beta.
