New Customers Drop Off When They Can't Find Answers Fast

You spent money to acquire a new customer. They signed up. Now they are stuck on the first step of setup and nobody is online to help. They send a support ticket, wait hours for a reply, and lose momentum. Some never come back.

This is the onboarding drop-off problem. Support teams get flooded with the same basic questions: 'How do I get started?', 'Where do I find my API key?', 'How do I connect my domain?' Your team answers these questions ten times a day instead of working on complex issues.

An onboarding chatbot solves both problems at once. It sits on your website, app, or help center and guides every new customer through setup in real time. It learns from your documentation, knowledge base, and setup guides. When a customer asks a question, they get an accurate answer in seconds.

Boei goes further with agentic AI that takes real actions during onboarding. It can create accounts via webhooks, send welcome emails, and trigger onboarding sequences. When the AI spots questions it cannot answer, it flags them as content gaps so you can improve your docs. Learn more about Boei's AI chatbot.

What Customers Say About Boei

Questions?

Onboarding Chatbot FAQ

How does the chatbot learn my onboarding content?

Point Boei at your help center, documentation pages, PDFs, or website URLs. The AI crawls and indexes everything automatically. When content changes, you can re-sync with one click. It only answers from your data and never makes things up.

Can it trigger actions during onboarding?

Yes. Boei uses agentic AI with tool-calling and webhooks. The chatbot can create accounts in your system, send welcome emails, enroll users in onboarding sequences, and update records in your CRM or database. See webhook integrations.

What is source gap detection?

When a new customer asks a question the AI cannot answer from your documentation, Boei flags it as a source gap. You see a list of unanswered topics in your dashboard. This tells you exactly which onboarding docs to create or improve.

Does the chatbot work on WhatsApp and email too?

Yes. Boei provides AI auto-reply on WhatsApp, email, and SMS using the same onboarding knowledge. A customer can start a conversation on your website and continue on WhatsApp without losing context.

Can new users pick up where they left off?

Yes. Boei maintains conversation persistence across sessions. If a new customer starts onboarding on Monday and returns on Wednesday, the chatbot remembers their progress and context.

How do I customize the onboarding intake flow?

Use Lead Flow to define the fields you need: company size, use case, goals, technical setup. The chatbot collects this through natural conversation and routes the customer to the right onboarding path based on their answers.
