Remove the Chatwoot widget Chatwoot Cloud keeps 30 days of history on the free plan, so export anything you need first.
Yes, two ways. The self-hosted Community Edition is free, and Chatwoot Cloud's Hacker plan is free for 2 agents and 500 chat conversations a month.
Startups is $19 per agent a month, Business $39 and Enterprise $99.
Partly. Chatwoot has an official command-line tool and agent skill that Claude Code or Cursor can use to manage conversations, but no official connector (MCP server). Daykeeper works with your AI agent on the Free plan, and your agent can set up the whole inbox for you with one command.
Not an official one, only community-built servers. Daykeeper includes a local MCP server on its Free plan.
No. Your AI builder or coding agent adds the Daykeeper widget, and you remove the Chatwoot one.
