What is Futy?


Futy is a Dutch provider that mostly targets the local market but has options for English or multilingual widgets. Their website is only available in Dutch, though.

With the Futy Dynamic Lead generation chatbots, your website visitors can be converted into Leads in a user-friendly manner, for example via email, WhatsApp, telephone, or video call. The excellent analytics integration will help you keep track.

You can choose from 15+ templates with different buttons and combine specific functionalities to display on pages of choice, however, it suits your needs. The widgets can contain links to multiple channels and contact forms like a call back request, planning a video call with Calendly, or requesting a quotation.

What is HelpScout?


Founded in 2011, Help Scout has been a promotor of fully remote companies long before it reached mainstream popularity in mid-2020. With over 12.000 customers, they are a prominent player in the support-desk space. Help Scout is also a certified B-Corp.

Help Scout is a communication platform that helps teams across an organization have better conversations with their customers. Quick to set up and easy to use, companies use Help Scout to create email inboxes like support@ and info@, put live chat on their websites, build help centers, and more. All of those customer interactions flow into a single view that looks just like an inbox but offers powerful collaboration and automation tools under the hood.

Help Scouts offers an extensive collection of free templates, guides, courses, and resources in the Support Toolkit on their website. They also have a range of open source tools and APIs created by the community in the Help Scout GitHub repository
