Fasrad as a Tidio alternative

Tidio is good at the part everyone sees: a chat widget on your site that greets visitors and runs a few flow steps. Where it stops is the part that actually moves a deal — someone on your team still has to open the inbox, read what the bot collected, copy the name into a CRM, check a calendar, and write the reply. The bot captured a lead; you still do the work.

Fasrad runs the same embeddable widget — one script tag, lead capture, rate limiting — but the thing on the other end is a working agent with its own email inbox, Google Calendar, CRM, and datastores. When a visitor asks for a quote on Thursday, it doesn't just save the message and tag it. It checks the calendar, offers a real slot, writes the lead into the CRM with the source, and sends a confirmation email — in one pass, while the visitor is still on the page.

Where the line falls:

Pick Fasrad when what you actually need is for the conversation to end in a booked meeting, a sent email, and a CRM row — without you in the loop. That's the gap this page is about: not capturing the lead, but closing it on its own.

Frequently asked questions

Is the chat widget the same kind of embed as Tidio's?

Yes — a single <script> tag you paste into your site, with lead capture, rate limiting, and auto-redaction of anything sensitive. Install takes about four minutes. The difference is what answers: a full agent with a calendar, CRM, and email, not a flow builder.

Can it actually book a meeting from inside the chat?

Yes. It reads your connected Google Calendar for real availability, offers open slots, and writes the event when the visitor picks one. Tidio can collect a preferred time as a form field, but a human still books it on the calendar afterward.

Does the lead end up somewhere I'll act on, or just a transcript?

It writes a CRM contact with the email, the question asked, and the source, and can log the chat as an interaction. So you review qualified contacts in a CRM, not raw transcripts in a shared inbox.

How is Tidio different from Fasrad?

Tidio is built around a shared-inbox interface for human agents taking over chats across web, Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp, with a large library of pre-built flows. Fasrad runs the same kind of embeddable widget, but the thing on the other end is a working agent: it qualifies the lead, books the meeting, logs the CRM row, and sends the follow-up email itself — taking the action instead of handing you a transcript to process.

We already run Tidio — how hard is it to move?

You don't have to rip it out day one. Most people add the Fasrad embed on one high-intent page (pricing, contact, a booking page) and watch it book and log leads there, while Tidio keeps handling general support. There's no flow to rebuild — you give the agent your site and context in plain language and it answers from that.

What does it cost?

$49/month or $490/year — cancel anytime It's in public beta, and the embeddable chat, email inbox, calendar, CRM, and automations are all part of the one agent — not separate add-on tiers.
