Not everyone wants to type
On a phone, in a car or with a long question, typing is the slowest way to ask for help.
Mobile visitors give up on long chat messages.
Older customers prefer to call rather than type.
My chatbot feels like a form, not a conversation.
One switch for spoken answers:
- Voice in the widget
- Custom first message
- Trained knowledge
- Text fallback
- Voice bot builder
- Conversation history

Help for people who don't want to type.
A more personal first contact.
The same knowledge in voice and text.
Good to know before you start
Voice chat turns the bot from External Chatbot into an AI voice chatbot. When the Voice Call Agent is on, visitors can start a spoken conversation from the chat widget, ask their question out loud and hear the answer. They can switch back to text whenever they want.
Setting up the AI voice chatbot
In the Configure step, switch on Enable Voice Call Agent and write the first message the assistant says when the call starts, for example „Hi, I’m Mia from the shop, how can I help?“. The voice agent uses the same training, instructions and limits as your text bot, so the answers stay consistent.
Standalone voice bots
Next to the chat widget, Qyx has AI Voice Bots: voice chatbots that speak and respond naturally, built on ElevenLabs Conversational AI. You create them in their own section, embed them on your website and review the conversations later, with a Summarize button for long chats.
Where voice helps most
Voice works well for questions that are easier to say than to write: describing a problem with a product, asking for advice on a gift, or getting directions to a store. It also helps visitors who browse on a phone while doing something else.
Who it suits
Shops with older customers who would rather speak than type. Hotels and restaurants where guests ask quick practical questions. Service businesses where people describe a problem in their own words. Brands that want a warmer, more personal first contact on their website than a text box.
Tips for an AI voice chatbot people enjoy
Keep the first message short and friendly, and tell visitors they can also type. Write answers in your training content as you would say them, without long lists. Test the voice on a phone in a quiet and a noisy room. For calls to a real phone number instead of the website, see the phone call agent. For a personal voice assistant for yourself, see the realtime voice chat in AI Chat Pro.
