About ZChat

We build live chat software for teams that want to run support on their own infrastructure.

ZChat is developed by RichScripts for organizations that do not want customer conversations, deployment decisions, and support workflow trapped inside a hosted pricing model. The goal is straightforward: practical self-hosted software, modern operator tools, and pricing that keeps live chat free and charges only for the features you choose.

What we believe

Control

Support conversations should stay on the servers of the team running them, not sit behind someone else's dashboard login.

Practical deployment

Products should fit real infrastructure, real security requirements, and real operator workflow instead of forcing everyone into the same hosted mold.

Long-term value

Live chat you run on your own server should not come with a per-seat bill.

Company mission

Help organizations deploy customer support software that fits their environment instead of fighting it.

RichScripts has a long history of building practical web software and reusable components for teams that care about reliability, flexibility, and operational control.

ZChat brings that mindset to live chat. It is designed for organizations that want a modern support workflow, but still need to make their own infrastructure, privacy, branding, and AI decisions.

We want the product to disappear into your process in the best possible way: install it cleanly, connect the providers you want, support customers efficiently, and keep the important data where your organization expects it to live.

Who it is for

Built for teams that cannot treat support infrastructure like a widget someone else hosts.

That usually means organizations with privacy expectations, internal IT standards, or a strong desire to keep their brand and customer data inside their own environment.

Operational teams

Support, sales, and service teams that need a dependable workflow across desktop and browser surfaces.

Security-conscious organizations

Companies that care where transcripts, customer data, and model prompts are stored and processed.

Builders and IT teams

Teams that want a support platform they can integrate, host, and evolve over time without vendor lock-in.

Self-hosted customer support software

Deploy live chat on your own terms, not on someone else's pricing model.

ZChat gives you the installable server, web dashboard, website widget, and desktop agent tools in one self-hosted product, with live chat free to run. Run it on infrastructure you trust and connect AI only if and how you want it.

Deployment

Install on Windows or Linux, behind IIS or Nginx, in a VM, or in Docker if that fits your stack.

Commercial model

Live chat is free with unlimited agents. Only the optional AI assistant is billed, per agent per month.

AI Flexibility

Use Ollama locally or connect OpenAI and Anthropic with your own provider accounts.
