How it works

CentralChat is an AI agent that brings customer requests from email, WhatsApp, Messenger and booking portals into one chat per customer, answers simple cases itself according to a mission you define and prepares the rest as a finished reply for your team. A judge checks every reply and states the reason.

Connect your channels

Email mailbox, WhatsApp Business, Facebook Messenger and Instagram, RocketChat, Booking.com and Airbnb via Beds24, Google reviews. Every person gets one chat, no matter how many channels they write through.

Set the mission and the level of autonomy

You write in your own words what the agent may answer and what it must never do. Per channel you choose: prepare a draft only, or send on its own when a case fits. You set exceptions for individual contacts.

The agent works, the judge checks

A draft is created for every message. A judge checks it against your mission and decides with a confidence score: simple, covered cases go out, everything else waits for your team as a finished draft with the reason attached. If information is missing, the agent asks your team, never the customer.

Missions per channel and per chat

One mission for the workspace, separate ones for individual channels, and when needed an instruction for one single chat. The most specific one applies.

Follow-up questions and escalation

If the agent lacks something, it asks your team. If a chat stays open too long, CentralChat escalates to a channel or a person according to your rules.

Knowledge base, learning from corrections

Your house knowledge in collections per channel. If you edit a draft before sending, CentralChat keeps your correction as a learning example.

Actions as a proposal, one click

Looking things up the agent may do itself, for example availability in Beds24. Changes it only proposes; you confirm with one click.

Translate on demand

Messages and replies in German, English and Thai. Translated once, visible to the whole team.

Required details

Define which details the agent asks for in the conversation, such as arrival time. At most three questions per reply, never an interrogation.

Blacklist and quiet

Ignore senders or domains, close chats as "needs no reply" with a reason. Both reversible at any time.

Roles per user

Admin, agent or viewer, channel access per person. Log in by invitation only, password-manager friendly.

Audit log and API

Every reply, every judge reason and every action is in the activity log. Every feature is also available as an API with its own key per workspace.

Built for mobile

Made for the phone: chats, drafts and approvals on the go, with swipe gestures instead of menus.

Channels

CentralChat connects the channels your customers already use and shows every person in one chat. What a channel can do technically is stated with it.

EmailYour own mailbox via IMAP and SMTP. Replies go out through your mail server, your sender domain stays yours.
WhatsApp BusinessMeta Cloud API. Replies within the 24-hour window, no templates. Requires business verification with Meta.
Facebook MessengerRead messages and comments, reply to comments publicly. Direct replies to customers on request.
InstagramDirect messages and comments via the linked Facebook page. Direct replies on request.
RocketChatRooms of your team or your customers. Everyone replies under their own name.
Booking.com, Airbnb, ExpediaVia Beds24: guest messages, bookings as a card in the chat, reading reviews from Airbnb and Booking.com.
Google reviewsRead and publicly answer reviews of your business profile, with Google's review status.

What it looks like

Real views from CentralChat with fictional companies, names and numbers. The interface is shown in German here; it is available in German, English and Thai.

Chat with an invoice question: the agent sent the reply itself, below it the judge decision with confidence and reason
Invoice question by email: the agent replied on its own, the judge shows confidence and reason.
Sent on its own

Every reply comes with a reason

The judge never decides on a hunch. Every reply shows decision, confidence and reason, even when the agent sent it itself. Below your threshold it stays a draft.

Chat about rescheduling an appointment: the agent asks the team a question in a separate card, the customer does not see it
Appointment request via WhatsApp: the agent asks your team which slot is free and replies only after that.
Question to the team

If something is missing, it asks you, never the customer

An internal question appears as a card in the chat. Your team answers, the agent rewrites the draft. While the question is open, nothing is sent automatically.

Chat with a quote request: the draft sits in amber in the text field, the judge explains why a human decides
Pricing question in the team chat: the draft is ready, the judge hands it to a human because the mission allows prices only after consultation.
A human decides

The draft is ready, you send

The draft sits right in the text field. You change what you do not like and send. Your edit is kept as a learning example.

Mission card: the instructions for the agent in plain words, with templates from the workspace
The mission in your words: here "Support for consulting clients: appointments, invoices, documents; prices only after consultation."
Mission

Your instructions, no prompt engineering

You write what the agent may and may not do, in normal sentences. Draft and judge read the same mission, and the judge checks precisely against it.

Hotel guest chat with booking card: dates, nights, guests, guest pays and net to hotel, below it the reply the agent sent at night
Hotel: a Booking.com reservation as a card in the chat; the agent answered the arrival question at 23:12 on its own.
Around the clock

Booking and conversation in one place

For hotels and holiday rentals: bookings from Booking.com, Airbnb and Expedia arrive via Beds24 as a card in the chat. Arrival, Wi-Fi and breakfast the agent answers according to your mission, at night too.

Settings with account cards for RocketChat, email, WhatsApp, Google and Facebook, below them the channel list with active switches
Settings: one card per account, the channels below. Expanded, every channel card shows the switches for auto-drafts and auto-send.
Settings

Autonomy per channel

One switch per channel, an exception per contact when needed. Off means paused, nothing is deleted.

Privacy by design

CentralChat runs in Germany, separates tenants in the database and gives the AI only what you release. Not a marketing phrase, but how it is built.

Hosted in Germany

Hetzner server in Nuremberg. The database is backed up daily, encrypted.

Your AI provider, your key

You choose the AI provider and add your own key with a monthly limit. Without automatic replies you need no AI, only for translations. Optionally we provide an account.

Tenant separation per workspace

Every workspace sees only its own data, enforced in the database itself, not just in the interface. A test checks this on every change.

The AI sees only what you release

Contact data carries a data class. Whatever you mark as "never in chat" never reaches the AI. Incoming messages are data to the AI, not instructions.

Encrypted credentials

Credentials of your channels and AI keys are stored encrypted and never shown again. Emails are rendered without scripts and without tracking images.
