Add customer support to the app you built in Windsurf in minutes
You drove Cascade, wrote the code, and deployed a real product. Ship a real product and the support questions follow. HelpShelf is the AI agent that handles them — grounded in your own content, dropped into your codebase with one snippet, escalating to you only when it hits something it cannot answer.
Can you add customer support to a Windsurf app?
Yes. An app you built in Windsurf is a standard web app you own and deploy, so you can add a full AI customer support agent with HelpShelf in about five minutes. You point the agent at your live app or docs so it learns your product, then paste one HelpShelf script tag into your codebase's HTML head and ship it. A support widget then appears on every page and answers users with cited answers from your content, escalating to you over email or Telegram only when it is not confident. There is a free Starter tier, so you can launch support at zero cost.
Windsurf helped you write the code. It did not write the support team.
Cascade got you to a deployed product fast. Then real users showed up — and so did the same questions, on repeat.
- The 'how do I set this up' and 'where do I find X' questions pile up faster than you can answer them.
- You shipped features, not a help center — there are no docs for users to self-serve from.
- Windsurf writes the code, but it does not sit inside your deployed app answering live questions.
- You are the dev, the founder, and now the entire first-line support desk.
From Windsurf build to live support in three steps
No help desk migration. No new platform to learn.
Point it at your Windsurf app
Paste your deployed app URL or your docs. HelpShelf reads your product and builds a knowledge base in seconds — no source code required. Optionally connect your GitHub repo so the agent also learns from your README and docs.
Drop one snippet into your codebase
Copy the HelpShelf script tag and add it to your app's HTML head — paste it into your index.html or root layout yourself, or ask Cascade to insert it. Commit, deploy, and the widget loads on every page.
Ship it and let the agent work
Your users get instant, cited answers around the clock. You get pinged only when something needs a human. Every conversation lands in your inbox so you stay in the loop.
Built for how you shipped it
Fast to install. Grounded in your content. Quiet until it needs you.
Live in 5 minutes
Point it at your deployed app, add one snippet to your codebase, commit. No backend to wire up, no help desk to stand up.
Answers from your own content
The agent learns from your live app, docs, and optionally your connected repo, then answers users with cited sources — not invented guesses.
Just a snippet in your code
It is one script tag in your HTML head — paste it yourself or have Cascade drop it in, commit, and the widget ships with your next deploy.
Escalates, never hallucinates
When the AI is not confident, it hands the conversation to you over email or Telegram instead of making up a feature you never built.
Free while you validate
Start free on the Starter plan — enough for the product you just deployed and the first users kicking the tires. Paid plans start at $49/mo, billed per resolved conversation.
Keeps up with your commits
Ship a change in Windsurf, re-sync your content or connected repo, and the agent relearns the new answer. No support backlog to babysit.
Perfect for Windsurf builders
Whatever you shipped, your users will have questions
Windsurf-built SaaS
You agent-coded a real product. Now let an AI agent field the first wave of setup and how-to questions automatically.
Solo and indie devs
Support that runs while you write the next feature in Cascade — or sleep. The agent handles the repetitive 80%.
Client and freelance builds
Hand off a Windsurf project with a working support agent already committed into the codebase. Looks polished, took five minutes.
Internal tools and dashboards
Drop a self-serve help agent into the internal app your team actually uses, so the 'how does this work' pings stop.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. An app you built in Windsurf is a standard web app you own and deploy, so you can add a full AI customer support agent with HelpShelf in about five minutes. Point HelpShelf at your live app URL so it learns your product, then add one script tag to your codebase's HTML head. A support widget appears on every page and answers your users automatically with cited answers — and there is a free Starter tier to start.
Create a free HelpShelf account, add your deployed app URL or docs as a source, customize the widget, and copy the embed snippet. Add that script tag to your app's HTML head — paste it into your index.html or root layout, or ask Cascade to insert it — then commit and deploy. The widget is live for every visitor.
No. HelpShelf answers from your content — your deployed app, help docs, or pasted text — not your source code. You only paste one script tag into your codebase to render the widget. If you want, you can optionally connect your GitHub repo so the agent also learns from your README and docs.
It escalates instead of guessing. When the agent is not confident, it hands the conversation to you over email or Telegram and tells the user a human will follow up. Every answer it does give is grounded in your sources with citations, so it will not hallucinate features your Windsurf app does not have.
Yes. HelpShelf's Starter plan is free and includes a live widget, AI answers, and your own help center — enough for most side projects and early MVPs. When you get real traction, paid plans start at $49/mo, billed per resolved conversation.
Yes. When you ship changes in Windsurf, re-sync your content or connected repo in HelpShelf and the agent relearns. You can also review held conversations and correct answers, which sharpens future responses.
