Getting Started with Helpium in 5 Minutes

Quick Start GuideUpdated March 26, 2026

Welcome to Helpium!

Helpium is a customer support platform with AI-powered self-service and live chat. This guide will help you get started in just 5 minutes.

Step 1: Complete the Onboarding Wizard

After signing up, you'll be guided through an onboarding wizard with three steps:

  1. Workspace Setup: Set your workspace name and upload a logo
  2. Knowledge Base: Create your first help articles so the AI chatbot can assist customers
  3. Widget Installation: Copy the embed code and paste it into your website

The wizard tracks your progress automatically. You can skip steps and return to them later from Settings.

Step 2: Invite Your Team

Go to Settings → Team and invite support agents by email. They'll receive an invitation link to join your workspace.

Step 3: Install the Chat Widget

Copy the widget embed code from Settings → Channels → Widget and add it to your website. Customers can immediately start chatting with your team and searching your knowledge base.

Step 4: Build Your Knowledge Base

Create categories and articles under Knowledge Base → Articles. A strong knowledge base powers the AI chatbot and reduces the number of conversations that require a human agent.

Next Steps

  • Customize your widget colors and greeting message
  • Connect additional channels (Email, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger)
  • Review your Analytics dashboard to track performance
