When a visitor shares an email or needs a human, FoundChat can notify the right Slack channel with conversation context. Route high-intent chat events to Slack channels your team already monitors—FoundChat stays the website brain, Slack stays the human queue for escalations.
Setup
01
Authorize Slack from FoundChat workflow settings for your workspace. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.
02
Route leads to #sales and escalations to #support (or your naming). Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.
03
Trigger a lead capture in the widget and confirm the Slack message. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.

Evidence

Visitors stay on-site; Slack is the operator side of the handoff not a second customer channel. Review unanswered logs weekly, update training sources when product or policy pages change, and expand scope only after two weeks of measurable improvement on high-intent pages.
