Use tool ↗About FastBots
FastBots builds a chatbot from content you already have: paste a URL to crawl a site, or upload PDFs, DOCX and CSV files, and it answers from that material. The bot then embeds on a website — with one-click paths for WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace and others — or runs as a channel on WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Instagram, Slack and email. You choose which model backs it, from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google, and it covers 95 languages, hands conversations to a human when needed, collects and exports leads, and retrains automatically as the source content changes. Zapier and Make connect it onward. The vendor is British and sells plans by chatbot count and monthly message credits, including a reseller tier.

Pros & cons of FastBots
FastBots is the pragmatic end of the bot-builder market: crawl a site, get a working bot, drop it on six messaging channels. Letting you pick the underlying model across three vendors is genuinely useful and not common at this price. The message-credit ceilings are the thing to size carefully, because 2,000 credits disappears fast on a busy site and the overflow add-ons are priced per block.
Pros
- Choose the underlying model across OpenAI, Anthropic and Google rather than being locked to one
- One bot serves web, WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, Instagram, Slack and email
- Automatic re-crawling and retraining keeps the bot current as the source site changes
- Zapier AI Actions let a bot book appointments or check orders mid-chat, and the trial needs no card
Cons
- Advertised prices assume annual billing - month-to-month Essential is $39, not $33
- Message credits are the real constraint, and premium models burn 5 or 10 credits per reply
- Removing FastBots branding is a $29/month add-on, nearly doubling the entry plan
- The free plan is gone for new accounts; after the 14-day trial the bot goes offline until you pay
Best for
- Small businesses turning an existing website into a support bot quickly
- Teams that need the same bot on WhatsApp, Telegram and their site
- Agencies reselling bots under the reseller tier
Not for
- Support organisations needing deep ticketing, SLAs and agent workflows
- Anyone who wants a permanently free bot for a low-traffic site
Watch out: Every headline number is billed annually — check the monthly rate before comparing it with competitors quoting month-to-month.
