What it does for you

A welcome at every point of a museum visit

Visitor questions come while people plan, on the day itself, and when they want more than a visit. FastBots answers from your own pages at each point.

01 · Planning a visit

Answer the questions that decide a trip

Explains opening times, prices, timed entry and free days from your visit pages, and links to your ticketing page.

  • “What are your opening hours?”
  • “Do I need to book in advance?”
  • “Do you have free admission days?”
02 · On the day

Help visitors arrive ready

Covers step-free access, the cloakroom, buggies, the cafe and family facilities, using your own visitor guides.

  • “Is the museum step-free?”
  • “Do you have a cloakroom?”
  • “Can I bring a buggy?”
03 · Beyond a visit

Pass groups and members to your team

Collects school, tour, hire and membership enquiries with the details your team needs, then sends them on.

  • “How do I book a school group?”
  • “Can we hire a gallery for an event?”
  • “What do members get?”

Reviews

What organisations say about their bot

“The more I use FastBots.ai the more I LOVE it! The bot always represents our brand, in the voice I wish I could use all the time. Even though I get catty when asked to answer the same questions, over and over, the bot is always happy to.”
Carole BaskinBig Cat Rescue
“Great chatbot product. I did some research on various platforms before choosing fastbots and happy that I did. I’m able to see the chats and address any fine tuning needs immediately. A lot of upload flexibility. Look forward to more bots!”
HeidiFounder, BLG · United States
“We are impressed with its user-friendly interface and easy setup, the straightforward chatbot training and branding alignment--all a breeze. We’re in the early stages, but we are loving the promising features and excellent customer support.”

More than a chatbot

It doesn't just answer. It works as an AI agent for your museum.

Connect FastBots to the tools you already use, and a question on your visit page becomes a school enquiry, a hire lead or a chat with your team.

  1. STEP 1

    Captures the enquiry

    Collects the school, year group, group size and preferred dates, or the details your events team needs for a hire.

  2. STEP 2

    Sends it to your tools

    Passes enquiries to your learning or events team through Zapier or Make, into a CRM, spreadsheet or shared inbox.

  3. STEP 3

    Books the next step

    Shows your ticketing or schools page as a button. With Zapier MCP connected, it can book a planning call with your learning team in the chat.

  4. STEP 4

    Hands over to your team

    When a member, donor or organiser needs a person, your team can step into the same chat with Live Chat.

Live Chat is on Business plan and above, and buttons are on paid plans. Booking and CRM actions during the chat use Zapier MCP and need a quick setup in your Zapier account.

Setup

Already use ChatGPT or Claude?

Connect FastBots to the AI assistant you already use, then create, train and update your bot just by asking it.

You stay in control

Clear about what it knows, and what curators decide

Your bot only answers from content you approve. If a question goes beyond what you've published, it says so and offers to pass it on.

Your bot handles

  • Opening hours, prices and free admission days
  • Timed entry and how to book exhibitions
  • Accessibility, cloakroom, cafe and family facilities
  • Membership benefits as you publish them
  • Capturing school, tour and hire enquiries

It hands to you

  • Ticket availability for timed or sold-out shows
  • Attributions, dates or meanings you haven't published
  • Membership changes, refunds and donations
  • Promises that a visit suits individual access needs
  • Questions your content doesn't cover

Start with your visit page and current exhibition

FAQ

Questions museums and galleries ask us

Will it make things up about our collection?

It answers from the pages and documents you add. If someone asks about an object you haven't published, it says it doesn't know and offers to pass the question on. Keep general AI knowledge and web search switched off if you want it to stay strictly on your own content.

Can it sell tickets or hold timed-entry slots?

No. It explains prices, timed entry and what's included, then sends visitors to your ticketing page, which on paid plans can be a button. Your ticketing system stays in charge of availability, so the bot never promises a slot.

Does it work with our ticketing or CRM system?

There's no native integration with museum ticketing or CRM systems. Zapier or Make can pass school, hire and membership enquiries to the tools you connect there, and with Zapier MCP connected, the bot can create a record during the chat.

Can it answer accessibility questions?

Yes, from your accessibility page: step-free routes, lifts, quiet times, assistance dogs and facilities. For individual needs, it shares your team's contact details rather than promising a visit will suit someone. Keep the page current and the bot follows.

Can international visitors ask in their own language?

Yes. It works in around 95 languages and answers from your English pages, so overseas visitors can plan a trip without a translated site. Test the languages your visitors use most before you go live.

Can a person take over the conversation?

Yes. With Live Chat on Business plan and above, your visitor services or membership team can step into the same chat during the hours you set. The visitor fills in a short contact form first, and you can set a fallback message for when the team is offline.

What do we get in the free trial?

14 days with 1 chatbot and 200 message credits, with no credit card required. That's enough to train it on your visit, exhibition and accessibility pages and test it with real front-desk questions.

How do we keep exhibitions and hours current?

Update your website and retrain the bot when a show opens or closes. On Business plan and above, auto retrain can refresh your website content daily, weekly or monthly, and you can see which questions it couldn't answer.

Still have a question?

Ask the FastBots chatbot in the corner, or just try it yourself.
