Ask your AI about the chats on your website

Zoho SalesIQ is the chat window on your website, where people ask before they are anybody’s lead. This connector lets you ask it from your own AI assistant how many chats came in, how many went unanswered, and which days your visitors actually write.

Connect Zoho SalesIQ to Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Perplexity, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Antigravity, with one connection, on the subscription you already pay for.

What it can change, once you say yes

  • Reply to a visitor in a live chat

  • Post the answer in a Slack channel you choose

  • Send the answer to your Telegram chat

  • Email the answer from your own mail account

Your assistant tells you in one line what it will change, and nothing reaches the account until you say yes in the chat. HeyMetra cannot undo a change afterwards. What to ask any connector that can make changes

What Zoho SalesIQ is

What it reads

Zoho SalesIQ is the live chat and visitor tracking on your website. It is where somebody who is not yet a lead asks their first question.

Chats

How many conversations came in over a period and how many were left without a reply, which is the number worth checking first.

Departments

Which team took the chats, so you can see where the load actually sits rather than where you assumed it did.

Busy days

When visitors write in, by day of the week, which is what staffing the chat window around real demand needs.

What it costs to read your live chat

Pricing

SalesIQ counts as one connector on your plan, and each portal you connect counts as one account, with no charge per chat or per question. Every plan can connect it.

Frequently asked

Do I need to connect it if Zoho CRM is already connected?

Yes. They are two Zoho products behind one sign-in, and a grant on one gives nothing to the other. Choose Zoho SalesIQ on the Connections screen and sign in again.

Why are the chat counts lower than my SalesIQ dashboard?

The account that signed in is probably attached to one department, and SalesIQ only shows it that department's chats. Reconnect as an administrator, or as an operator in every department you want counted.

Can it reply to visitors or send chat messages?

Not if you connected it read-only: then it cannot start a chat, answer one or message a visitor. If you allowed changes, it can propose a reply, and the reply is not sent until you approve it.

We run live chat on two websites. Does one connection cover both?

No. SalesIQ calls each site a portal, and one connection is one portal. Connect again and pick the second one, then ask about each by name.

Step-by-step setup in Claude →
Setting it up 5 steps. You sign in on the provider, so no password reaches us.

SalesIQ is its own connection even if Zoho CRM is already connected, and the account you sign in with decides which departments are counted. Five steps, mostly on Zoho's screens.

  1. 1

    Connect it separately from Zoho CRM

    Choose Zoho SalesIQ on the Connections screen even if Zoho CRM is already connected. They are different products behind one sign-in, and a grant on one carries nothing to the other.

  2. 2

    Sign in as somebody who can see the chats

    On Zoho's own screen. SalesIQ scopes what an operator sees by department, so the account you use decides which conversations HeyMetra can count.

    An operator attached to one department produces figures for that department, which reads as a quiet site rather than as a narrow view.

  3. 3

    Grant the two read permissions

    Portals and conversations, both READ, and nothing about your CRM. If you chose to allow changes, Zoho also lists conversations CREATE, which is what lets your assistant propose a reply to a visitor. A read-only connection cannot send a chat message or reply to one.

  4. 4

    Pick the portal

    SalesIQ calls a site a portal, and an account can hold several. One HeyMetra connection is one portal; connect again to add another.

    The portal's screen name is part of every address HeyMetra calls, which is why it is chosen here rather than guessed later.

  5. 5

    Add HeyMetra to the assistant you use

    Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, Perplexity, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or Antigravity. The chat tool appears there and answers from the live portal.

Then add HeyMetra where you ask

When it does not work 2 common problems and how to fix each one.

Both things that go wrong here look like a quiet website, and neither is. One is an account attached to a single department, the other a second site that lives in a different portal.

The chat figures are far lower than the SalesIQ dashboard shows.
The account that authorised it is attached to one department rather than all of them, so it can only see that department's conversations.
Reconnect as an administrator, or as an operator attached to every department you want counted.
Another site's chats are missing.
A connection carries one portal, and that site is a different portal.
Connect SalesIQ again and pick the other portal. Each connection is asked about by name.

See how many chats nobody answered

Add your portal to HeyMetra once, then ask about last week's chats from the assistant you already use.
