INDEXING
Agent answer with citations
Your Pro plan renews every month [1]. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery [2].
Knowledge base

Train it on
your data — not the internet.

Drag and drop PDFs, Word docs, CSVs, or plain text. We chunk, embed, and index automatically. The agent only answers from what you uploaded — and cites every source.

  • PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD, CSV supported out of the box
  • Automatic chunking + embedding (no config)
  • Inline citations [1] [2] in every answer
  • Grounded answers only — when the answer isn't in your docs, the agent says so instead of guessing
Channel-aware

Same agent. Native to every channel.

The same question gets answered three different ways. Long-form HTML email. Tight 160-char SMS. WhatsApp markdown with emoji. You don't configure it. The model knows.

Built for teams that ship.

How support and ops teams put Chat Cactus to work.

One platform instead of three tools

A single agent answers on the website, over email, and by SMS — with the full conversation context retained across channels, so customers never repeat themselves.

CS
Customer support teams

Live before the coffee is cold

Upload your docs, write a one-paragraph persona, paste one line of HTML — the first agent is typically answering real questions in under 30 minutes, formatted natively for each channel.

GO
Fast onboarding

Every answer is auditable

Replies cite the exact documents they came from, so teams can review what the agent said and verify it pulled from approved sources — useful anywhere compliance matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which LLM does Chat Cactus use?

OpenAI (GPT-4o, GPT-4o-mini), Anthropic (Claude 3.5 Sonnet), or a fallback chain across both. The model router automatically downgrades when you approach your monthly cost cap, so you never get a surprise bill.

How long does setup actually take?

Under 10 minutes for the first agent. Upload your docs, write a 1-paragraph persona, pick a model. The widget snippet is one line of HTML. Channel integrations (Gmail OAuth, Twilio API key, Telegram bot token) take 2-5 minutes each.

How do you handle my customers' data?

Knowledge documents are embedded once on upload, then only the relevant chunks are sent to the LLM at query time. Integration credentials (OAuth tokens, API keys) are AES-256-GCM encrypted at rest. We never train models on your data.

Can the agent hand off to a human?

Yes — human escalation is built in. When a customer asks for a person (or the AI can’t answer reliably), the conversation moves to your team’s Human Escalations queue: the AI stops replying, your team is notified, and a teammate answers on the customer’s own channel straight from the dashboard — then resolves it or hands it back to the AI.

Is there an API I can build on?

Yes. Every action in the dashboard has a REST endpoint. The embedded widget itself runs on the same public API. Full docs live at /docs after sign-in.

Can I self-host or run in our private cloud?

Yes. The codebase runs as two processes (Next.js + FastAPI) against MySQL — no managed services required. Enterprise plan includes the self-host license + setup help.
