About us

FiveMinChat is an AI website chatbot for small businesses, built in Kolkata

We make it simple for a clinic, coaching centre, salon or law firm to answer website visitors around the clock from its own content, and to capture the enquiries it would otherwise miss.

Who we are

FiveMinChat is a product of Vibgyor Techsolutions, a software company founded in 2007 and based in Kolkata, West Bengal, India. It was founded and is run by Surojit Saha, who also writes most of the guides on the FiveMinChat blog.

We started FiveMinChat because the AI chatbot tools we looked at were priced in dollars, billed per conversation or credit, and built for support teams rather than for a small business owner who just wants questions answered after hours. FiveMinChat is priced in rupees, metered in simple monthly messages, and set up in about five minutes.

What FiveMinChat does

  • Learns from your own content. Paste your website address or upload PDF, Word, Excel, CSV or text files. The bot answers only from that content and says so when it does not know, instead of guessing from the internet.
  • Answers visitors 24/7 in the visitor's language, including English, Hindi and Hinglish.
  • Captures leads. It collects a visitor's name, email and phone number during the chat and emails them to you.
  • Hands over to WhatsApp with a "Continue on WhatsApp" button when you add your number.
  • Stays current. Paid plans re-read your website on a schedule, from monthly to weekly.

What it does not do: there is no live-chat inbox for agents to take over a conversation, and it is not a WhatsApp Business API or broadcast tool. If you need those, another product is a better fit.

How we handle your data

Your content and your visitors' chats are used only to run your chatbot. We do not sell them or use them to train AI models. Free-plan chat history is kept for 7 days and paid plans keep it for 30 days to a year, depending on the plan. The details, including how we approach India's DPDP Act, are in our privacy policy and our DPDP Act guide for website chatbots.

Alongside the chatbot we build free tools for small businesses, such as a WhatsApp link generator, UPI and WiFi QR code generators and an FAQ generator. They need no signup. See all free tools.
