Overview

What is Tidio?

Tidio is a customer communication and support platform that combines live chat, help desk features, automation tools, and AI-powered customer service through its Lyro AI Agent. It helps small and medium-sized businesses manage website conversations, answer customer questions, automate repetitive support interactions, and connect customer messages across multiple channels.


  1. Live chat and customer messaging: Tidio provides website live chat tools that allow businesses to communicate with visitors in real time, monitor customer activity, and manage conversations from a shared inbox.
  2. AI customer support: Lyro AI Agent uses a company’s knowledge sources to answer customer questions, handle common support requests, and assist with customer conversations while allowing human agents to take over when needed.
  3. Automation workflows: businesses can create automated conversation flows for tasks such as lead qualification, frequently asked questions, customer guidance, and routing conversations to appropriate support channels.
  4. Small business support operations: Tidio is designed for small and medium-sized businesses that need a lightweight customer service solution combining live chat, AI assistance, automation, and integrations with platforms such as ecommerce and messaging tools.


Tidio is most suitable for businesses that want to add AI-assisted customer support and live communication capabilities without adopting a large enterprise contact center platform.
