Tidio reviews
Customer chat, tickets and the Lyro AI support agent.
In practice. What you can do with Tidio.
Tidio combines support messaging, tickets, Flows automation and the Lyro AI agent. Human-handled conversations, Lyro conversations and visitors reached through Flows have separate quotas. A support subscription does not make AI unlimited.
Start with recurring questions and test human handoff. Check answers against your own content and plan for mistakes or sensitive requests. Before migrating, confirm the contact and history exports you need; easy widget installation does not guarantee complete portability without manual work.
Practical uses
- Customer chat, tickets and the Lyro AI support agent.
