I was using Drift for live chat, Calendly for booking meetings and Typeform surveys to ask my leads qualifying questions. Continually helps me do all three in one tool.
Continually doesn’t do live chat, but for me — this as a feature, not a bug. I personally didn't have the capacity to respond to people in a timely manner. By the time I would reply, they’d be gone.
Pros:
Super easy set up. Calendar integration. The automation frees me up to do other things.
Cons:
None so far!

Hi Paul and David - good to see what you're up to since our paths crossed while you were at Typecast! I'm curious if you see this as a fit for an individual consultant like myself. I've just relaunched my site in an effort to bring a bit more focus as to why people might engage my services, and I'm intrigued by the idea of adding something like this as a conversation starter.
@jpamental 👋wow, long time no see Jason! I love what you've been doing around responsive web typography and variable fonts since we last spoke.
I think this would definitely work for you as an individual consultant. A big portion of the early users for Continually fit that profile. One of the challenges I remember about consulting work is that you have to prioritise the contracts you've agreed to deliver AND juggle new enquiries coming in 🤔
A simple welcome message to learn what visitors are interested in would be quick and easy to set up, and I'd be happy to help you set it up.
You can create an account by visiting the site yourself, but if you'd like me to run you through it just schedule a call on my page at https://paul.continual.ly
@jpamental 👋 hi Jason. Lovely to hear from you! Hope you’re doing great 😊.
Continually is perfect for individual consultants. Some of our early users are exactly that. Busy consultants who’s time is (literally) very valuable.
We’ve seen some of these users install Continually on their sites to qualify leads with a few basic questions before offering them a slot from their calendar — ensuring they’re spending most of their time on the best opportunities.
I’d be happy to show you around on a call sometime this week if you like?

Thanks @paulmckeever & @itsdavidhughes ! I'll check it out more and book time with one of you later this week. (and thanks for the kind words Paul! Excited to have just launched a brand new site for my work using variable fonts this week :) )

I like how Continually can be set to trigger after a set period as it's a personal bugbear of mine when a pop-up offering help appears immediately when you land on a site.
Pros:
- Easy installation
- Very easy to get a birds-eye view of whole conversation flow
- Common use-cases (Leads, conversions etc) pre-populated
Cons:
- Maybe I missed it but I didn't see an option to fork the conversation based on a boolean answer?
Paul from Continually here. We're a small team and are super excited to be sharing our story with the Product Hunt community today :)
Our goal is to help you convert more website visitors to customers, by making it easier and quicker for them to get what they're looking for.
Talking to people over live chat is cool, and we know there are some great tools out there to do that. The challenge we see is that not everyone is able to respond in real-time.
And as a user, I find it really frustrating when there's no-one there to reply or it takes forever to get an answer.
So we're building Continually for a future where automation is something that every sales and marketing team can use.
Things that Continually is great at:
🕑 answering questions out of hours or across timezones
📅 helping visitors schedule meetings and book appointments
🤔 discovering what your visitors are really interested in
👀 sharing images, videos, gifs and other content when visitors engage
We'd LOVE to hear your feedback especially what you think we could do better.
@tcodinat thanks, Toni! Being able to help people even when you're not there was a big part of what lead us to building Continually :)

Congrats on the launch folks! Looks like you've done a great job on demystifying complex conversation trees through an intuitive UI - I'd love to hear more about that process :)
Looking forward to having a deeper play with it, best of luck Continually team! 🙏🏻
@jordanmoore Cheers, Jordan 😊 🙏.
We think automation should be something anybody can take advantage of — not just technical people. This is how we arrived at the flowchart drag & drop pattern and conversation templates, which we'll be sure to add to when we have more data on usage.
We've also spent a lot of time over the last few months testing the product with early pilot users and iterating on the conversation builder specifically. We think there's lots of scope for it to get better too, so looking forward to your feedback :D.

Congrats on the launch!
I liked the really simple and clean interface :) You've done an amazing work in simplyfing the conversion process on B2B sales. Thanks :)
Very cool concept - almost like a chatbot for email leads! I really like the drag and drop automation. The UI is giving me Yahoo Pipes flashbacks (which was a product ahead of its time).
@justinotherjohnson love a bit of Yahoo Pipes. I built my university final project using it (a very long time ago) 😄.
Thanks for the kind words on the concept and the UI.
I'd love to hear if there's anything you think we could do to make it more useful. 🙏
