Why Look for Website Chat Alternatives?

You can’t focus only on website visitors

Most buyers discover you off-site. Qualified limits engagement to your website.

Pipeline shouldn’t rely on email follow-ups

Email reply rates are under 12%. Knock keeps buyers in their preferred messaging app, where reply rates exceed 86%.

Buyers still want to talk to humans

Knock’s AI enriches, qualifies, and even engages when you’re offline, but never replaces humans. It makes sure buyers connect fast with the right rep.

Qualified requires heavy setup

Piper requires weeks of setup. Knock works from day one.
