Smith.ai Live Chat Now Integrates with Clio and HubSpot!

2022-01-11

Smith.ai's receptionists can staff live chat on your website in addition to handling your phone calls. Now, with our Clio and HubSpot integrations, we can immediately pass contact information and transcripts from live chats into your CRM, intake, and marketing software. It's never been easier to keep track of and communicate with new leads and existing clients who connected with you online.

How It works

When you integrate your Smith.ai Chat account with your Clio or HubSpot account, the following happens for you:

  • New contacts are added after each chat
  • Existing contacts are matched to their current record (by phone number or email)
  • Chat transcripts are added to each contact's record

In Clio, a chat transcript appears in your Communications log, like this:

In HubSpot, a chat transcript appears in the activity stream of a contact, like this:

How to Connect Your Clio or HubSpot Account with Smith.ai Live Chat

The directions below assume you have an active Clio or HubSpot account. If you don't have one, go get one and then return to these directions.

1. Once you have a Smith.ai Chat account, you'll see integrations available to you on the Integrations menu (the grid of one plus-sign and 3 squares, just above the Settings menu).

2. Click on Clio or HubSpot.

3. Click "Connect."

4. Review the add-on fee (at the time of writing, $.50/chat) and click "Add to plan" to accept the fee and continue with the integration.

5. You will then be taken to a screen that prompts you to log in to Clio or HubSpot, and authorize the integration with Smith.ai Chat. Accept, and then you will be taken back to your Smith.ai Chat account.

That's it! Once your account is successfully connected to Smith.ai Chat, you'll see it listed under the "Connected" category within the Integrations menu. You can connect or disconnect integrations at any time.

Please note: CRM integration is an optional add-on service and will incur an extra fee. View current pricing for this and all other add-on services.
