Hello! I am creating a website that allows people to hire freelancers. I am still in the early stages of development, and one of the features I want to incorporate is a chatbox that lets customers chat with freelancers through our platform. I have searched online, but I have not found much information regarding what steps I need to take in order to accomplish this. My ultimate goal is to create a chat system that lets customers chat with freelancers. Any advice is welcome. Thank you.
hi @Abhinav_Gorrepati I have come across Socio that is brand new framework agnostic web socket RTC (Real-Time Communication) and looks promising. Check YT he is showing some demos. I didn’t use it yet as busy with other Tools but you can give a look and see if it will work for you. One more thing IT IS NOTno-code!!!
or look for chat app API’s articles in past 1-2 years and select one that have futures you are looking after. here is on Article example but feel free to find more.
I tried something similar before and found that using https://ultramsg.com made the process smoother, especially for linking real-time communication.
It lets you build a custom chatbot that connects users directly in chats, and you can automate parts of the flow pretty easily.
You still have to handle things like verifying phone numbers and setting up conversation logic, but it works well if you’re looking for a chat-based setup.
