IMsupporting - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

IMsupporting is a leading UK-based live chat and AI customer support platform designed specifically for British businesses. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Gloucester, we understand the unique challenges UK companies face when delivering exceptional customer experiences while maintaining strict data compliance. Our Hybrid AI technology combines artificial intelligence with human expertise, creating a seamless support ecosystem that handles inquiries efficiently while ensuring a personal touch when it matters most. Unlike American competitors like Intercom or Zendesk, we keep your data in the UK, comply fully with GDPR regulations, and offer transparent, SME-friendly pricing without hidden fees or per-seat charges.

Why UK Businesses Choose IMsupporting

The live chat market is dominated by American companies that often overlook UK-specific needs. At IMsupporting, we've built our platform from the ground up for British companies. Our servers are in UK data centres, our support team is based in Gloucester, and we're fully GDPR compliant, ICO registered, and Cyber Essentials Plus certified. When you choose IMsupporting, you're choosing a partner who understands UK regulations, British consumer expectations, and data sovereignty. Our customers range from small startups to established organisations in hospitality, legal, healthcare, real estate, and local government.

Our Revolutionary Hybrid AI Technology

What sets IMsupporting apart is our unique Hybrid AI approach. Traditional chatbots can only provide scripted responses, often leaving customers frustrated. Our Hybrid AI system handles routine inquiries automatically while seamlessly handing complex issues to your human team. The AI can take real actions—checking stock, processing orders, generating quotes, raising tickets—using our proprietary Tool Integration system. Your customers get instant answers to simple questions with the assurance that a real person is available for complex issues. The AI learns from every interaction, continuously improving while freeing your agents to focus on high-value conversations.

Complete Feature Overview

IMsupporting comes packed with features to transform your customer interactions. Our AI chat widget is lightweight (under 50KB), loads instantly, and works beautifully on any device. The widget is fully customisable—match your brand colours, choose position, and configure launcher text. Our agent dashboard provides real-time analytics showing visitor numbers, chat volumes, response times, and satisfaction scores. The AI assists agents by suggesting responses, analysing sentiment to flag unhappy customers, and retrieving relevant information. We offer integrations with WordPress (free plugin on WordPress.org), WooCommerce, Shopify, Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Zapier, plus comprehensive API and webhook support.
