The live-chat bubble you own — unlimited agents, unlimited sites, no per-seat pricing.
Coaches juggle booking links, course platforms, community tools and invoicing — easily $200+/mo before their first client. Pay-once software turns that stack into a fixed, owned asset.
The tool this job usually means renting is Crisp, at $95/mo (Plus) — roughly $1,140 a year, every year. Chatlet does the job for a one-time $129 — running on infrastructure you control.
A single script tag. Shadow-DOM widget (~9 KB of dependency-free JS), so your site's CSS can't break it.
For coaches & course creators, one-line embed pays off between client sessions — and it's covered by the same one-time $129, not metered per month.
Automatic reconnect, an outgoing message queue, and a transparent HTTP-polling fallback when corporate firewalls block WS.
For coaches & course creators, real-time over WebSockets pays off between client sessions — and it's covered by the same one-time $129, not metered per month.
Live-updating inbox with open/closed states and unread badges, typing indicators both ways, sound + browser notifications.
For coaches & course creators, agent dashboard pays off between client sessions — and it's covered by the same one-time $129, not metered per month.
One-time $129 for the packaged version — Windows desktop app plus one-command VPS deploy.
docker compose up -d on a $5 VPS behind your reverse proxy (WebSocket upgrade passed through). Desktop mode is perfect as the always-on agent console.

Yes — MIT source at github.com/bensblueprints/live-chat-mvp. $129 buys the packaged version, 1-click setup and updates.
No — Chatlet is human-to-human live chat done properly: real-time delivery, typing indicators, canned responses, offline messages. Intercom's Fin-style AI agents and workflow bots are genuinely beyond its scope; if you need those, Intercom earns its (considerable) price.
