The IT Chatbot That Qualifies Prospects Before You Get On A Call

Most prospects ask the same handful of things before they'll book a call — what services you cover, what your response time is, what you charge and whether you support the software they run. FastBots learns your service pages, rate cards and case studies, then answers those questions any time of day. When a fit prospect comes in, it captures their company, team size and pain point so your account exec only follows up with the right people.

Quick Answers

Really Common Questions IT Ask

What is an IT chatbot?

An IT chatbot is a website assistant trained on an MSP or IT services firm's own content — service pages, rate sheets, supported software lists and case studies. It answers commercial qualifier questions like response times, hourly rates and contract length, then captures details from fit prospects so the sales team only follows up with relevant enquiries.

How does FastBots work for an IT services firm?

You point FastBots at your website and it crawls your service, pricing and about pages. You add house rules — what to say about SLAs, what to do when someone asks about a certification you don't hold, when to capture a lead. Then you paste one line of code on your site and the chat widget goes live.

Can it qualify prospects before they reach the team?

Yes. FastBots works as an AI agent for top-of-funnel qualification: it gathers company name, staff size, current setup and pain point across the conversation, and emails the details to your account team. A Zapier or Make workflow can push the same data into your CRM after the chat ends.

Does it replace our helpdesk?

No, and that's deliberate. The chatbot handles pre-sales questions and basic information about your services. Existing client tickets, incident response and anything covered by your SLA still go through your helpdesk and engineers — the chatbot just keeps the noise off your sales line.

Why FastBots

Why IT Use FastBots

Answers Commercial Questions 24/7

Prospects research IT providers in the evening and at weekends. The chatbot answers questions about services, response times and rates whenever someone lands on your site.

Qualifies Leads Before Your Team Calls

Captures company name, team size, current setup and the pain point that prompted the search, so your account exec opens every call already knowing the basics.

Trained On Your Services And Rates

It answers from your own service pages, retainer tiers and case studies — not generic AI guesses about what an MSP might charge.

Stays Honest About Certifications

You set the guardrails. If someone asks about Cyber Essentials or ISO 27001 and you don't hold it, the bot says so and points them at what you do have.

Around 95 Languages For Multinational Clients

If you support clients across regions, the chatbot can hold the conversation in the prospect's language and translate the transcript for your team to review.

Live Chat For Higher-Value Enquiries

On the Business plan and above, an enterprise prospect asking about a 200-seat migration can be handed to a real person mid-conversation instead of waiting for a callback.

Sends Qualified Leads Into Your CRM

After the chat ends, Zapier or Make workflows can push the lead into HubSpot, Pipedrive or whichever CRM you use, with the conversation transcript attached.

Auto-Retrains When You Update Pricing

Change your managed-service tiers or add a new audit package? On Business plan and above, auto-retrain picks up the new content on the schedule you set.

Real Scenarios

Where It Earns Its Keep

Managed Services Vs Project Work Qualifier

The first question most prospects ask. The bot explains both offerings and steers them toward the right form depending on which fits.

SLA And Response-Time Questions

Answers what your standard SLAs look like for P1 to P4 incidents, with a clear note that the binding numbers are in the signed agreement.

Rate And Retainer Pricing Enquiries

Shares hourly rates, retainer tiers and typical project ranges from your published pricing — no more dropping off prospects who just wanted a ballpark.

Supported Software Lookups

Confirms whether you support Microsoft 365, Sage, QuickBooks, specific line-of-business apps or hosting platforms the prospect already runs.

Cyber Audit And Compliance Enquiries

Outlines your cyber audit packages, what's included and what isn't, and captures details so a security lead can follow up with a fit prospect.

Onboarding Timeline Questions

Explains the typical onboarding sequence — discovery, documentation, agent rollout — so prospects know roughly how long it takes to go live.

Out-Of-Hours Support Enquiries

Clarifies whether you offer 24/7 cover, what's bundled in the retainer and what's billed separately as overtime or emergency response.

Switching-Provider Conversations

Handles the awkward 'we're unhappy with our current MSP' chat, captures the basics and flags the lead as a warm switch enquiry for sales.

Set Your House Rules

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

The ones we hear most before teams sign up. If yours isn’t here, our support team replies within hours during business days.

Will it replace our sales team?

No. The chatbot handles the repetitive qualifier questions — services, rates, response times, supported software — and captures details from fit prospects. Your account execs still own the conversation from the discovery call onwards. The point is to make sure they only spend time on leads worth talking to.

Can it quote a specific SLA or contract terms?

It can share what's on your published pages — typical response-time ranges, retainer tiers, what's included. Anything binding still needs to come from the signed service agreement, and the bot's house rules should say exactly that. We'd recommend phrasing like 'typical SLAs for managed clients are X — final terms are in your contract'.

Can it book a discovery call?

Not directly inside the chat. The chatbot captures the request — company, size, pain point, preferred time — and emails it to your team, or pushes it to your CRM through Zapier or Make once the chat ends. From there your existing booking link or sales rep takes over.

Does it integrate natively with our PSA tool?

There are no documented native integrations with ConnectWise, Autotask or HaloPSA today. You can connect the chat output to those tools via Zapier or Make workflows — the chatbot itself focuses on pre-sales, not ticket management, so the PSA stays in charge of client incidents.

What if a prospect asks about a certification we don't hold?

You set this in the house rules. If you don't hold Cyber Essentials Plus or ISO 27001, you tell the bot to say so honestly and point the prospect at the standards and assurances you do have. Inventing certifications is the fastest way to lose trust in this industry, so we keep the bot conservative by default.

Can it support clients in other languages?

Yes — FastBots supports around 95 languages. If you're an MSP working with multinational clients, the bot can hold conversations in the prospect's language, and on eligible plans you can translate the chat transcript so your team can review it in English.

How is this different from a generic AI chat tool?

FastBots is an AI chatbot trained specifically on your content. When you turn on live internet search or connect a workflow, it works more like an AI agent — looking things up, gathering details across the conversation and routing the captured lead into your CRM after the chat ends. Generic tools answer with generic information, which is the opposite of what an IT trust purchase needs.

What does it cost?

There's a free plan with 1 chatbot and 50 messages a month — enough to build and test it on your service pages. Paid plans start at $39 a month. Live Chat handover for higher-value enterprise enquiries is on the Business plan at $89 a month.

How long does setup take?

Most IT firms get a first version live within an afternoon: crawl the site, set the house rules around SLAs and certifications, add a few common Q&A entries, then paste the embed snippet. Polishing tone and adding all your supported-software answers takes a bit longer, but you can launch with the basics and improve from chat history.

What about existing client support?

We'd suggest scoping the bot to pre-sales and general information only. Existing client incidents should still flow through your helpdesk and ticketing system where SLAs apply. You can use the bot to point logged-in clients to the right portal, but it isn't a replacement for your ticketing workflow.
