Free Tools Create Expensive Problems
When your chat platform can't meet compliance requirements, can't route conversations intelligently, and can't give you real reporting, your team absorbs the cost.
Comm100 is purpose-built for regulated industries, so your support operation runs without workarounds.
A Live Chat Platform Built for Serious Work
Comm100's live chat was built for agents who handle complex, high-volume conversations all day.
That means AI integrations and features like co-browsing to walk customers through issues in real time, typing preview so agents can prepare responses before the message lands, AI-powered suggestions from your knowledge base, and audio or video chat when text isn't enough.
Audited, Certified, and Secure
Comm100 holds SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and ISO 27001 certifications. For organizations that need full control over where data lives, Comm100 also offers an on-premises deployment. tawk.to has no public compliance certifications and no on-premises option.
