Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about adding live chat to your website or app with Sakura SMS.

A live chat API is a set of programming interfaces that lets you embed real-time messaging into your website or application. Instead of using a third-party chat widget with limited control, you integrate the Sakura SMS Chat API directly, giving you full ownership over the user experience, conversation data, and agent workflows.

The Sakura Chat widget is fully customizable. You can change the primary color, position, launcher icon, welcome message, and agent avatars through configuration options. For deeper customization, use our headless SDK to build your own chat UI from scratch while still leveraging our conversation infrastructure for message delivery, presence, and history.

All conversation data is stored securely on Sakura SMS infrastructure. Messages are encrypted in transit and at rest. You can access full conversation history through the API or dashboard at any time. Data retention policies are configurable per project, and you can export or delete conversation data on demand to comply with data protection requirements.

Yes. The web widget is fully responsive and works on all modern mobile browsers. For native mobile apps, we provide iOS and Android SDKs that offer a native chat experience with push notification support, offline message queuing, and automatic reconnection handling.

There is no hard limit on concurrent conversations per agent. Most support teams find that agents can effectively manage 3-5 active conversations simultaneously. Our agent dashboard includes tools for prioritization, canned responses, and conversation tagging to help agents stay efficient at scale.

Yes. The Sakura Chat API supports AI integration through our bot framework. You can configure automated responses for common questions, route conversations to the right department based on intent detection, and seamlessly hand off from bot to human agent when needed. The AI layer works alongside your existing agent workflows.

Chat is priced per Monthly Active User (MAU) -- a unique end-user who sends or receives at least one message in a calendar month. Agent seats and conversation volume are unlimited on all plans. You get 1,000 MAUs free every month to get started. Contact our sales team for volume pricing above 50,000 MAUs.
