88Agents

## What is 88Agents?

88Agents is a powerful platform designed for developers and builders who want to create chatbots and AI agents without the complexity and limitations of other tools. Built by builders who grew frustrated with half-working templates and convoluted workflow setups, 88Agents offers a streamlined experience that puts you in full control. The platform operates on a "bring your own keys" model, meaning you use your own API keys, choose your own models, and maintain complete ownership over how your AI solutions are built and deployed. Whether you're starting with a simple FAQ chatbot or scaling up to a fully autonomous AI agent that queries databases and connects to external APIs, 88Agents is designed to grow with your needs — all from a single, reliable platform.

## Key Features

**Multi-Channel Deployment**
88Agents allows you to deploy your chatbot or agent across multiple channels from a single configuration. Supported channels include embeddable website chat widgets, Slack workspaces (supporting DMs and channel mentions), and email via IMAP/SMTP. Each channel shares the same knowledge base and personality, ensuring a consistent experience for end users regardless of where they interact.

**Flexible Model Selection**
The platform integrates with three leading AI providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini — giving access to over 20 models. Switching between providers requires no code changes, so you can adapt instantly when new models are released or when you want to optimize for cost.

**Versatile Knowledge Sources**
88Agents can be trained on a wide variety of content types, including PDF, Word, and Markdown documents, entire websites (with scheduled auto-syncing), CSV and JSON datasets, YouTube videos and playlists, and FAQ question-answer pairs. All sources are indexed and made fully searchable, enabling accurate, context-aware responses.

**Conversation Visibility and Analytics**
Every conversation is logged and searchable through a built-in analytics dashboard. You can monitor token usage, response times, and recent activity. Optional contact collection allows you to capture visitor information directly through the chat interface.

## What Makes 88Agents Unique

What truly sets 88Agents apart is its philosophy: **your keys, your models, your control**. Unlike many AI platforms that lock you into a proprietary ecosystem, 88Agents gives builders the freedom to work with the tools they already trust. You're never dependent on a single AI provider, and you're never forced to overpay when cheaper or more capable models become available.

The platform also bridges the gap between simple chatbots and complex AI agents seamlessly. Most clients start by needing a smart, document-aware chatbot that can capture leads and answer questions. But as requirements grow — triggering workflows, querying databases, calling external APIs — 88Agents scales to meet those demands without requiring a platform switch.

This "start simple, scale complex" approach, combined with true provider flexibility and a multi-channel deployment model, makes 88Agents a compelling choice for developers and agencies building AI-powered solutions for their clients. No credit card is required to get started.
