EXPORT TO DOCX
Many of my potential clients will like to be able to export the App’s responses to DOCX in addition to the current facility of Export to PDF. this will allow them to edit the AI response. Thank you
Let end-users directly Pay CalStudio / Revshare business model
Currently app owners pay CalStudio whether or not end-users pay the app owners. This means app owners might lose lots of money. I suggest an alternate route where end-users will pay CalStudio directly while CalStudio will pay app owners a portion of that money. It's not really affiliation since app owners will own and manage the apps, i.e. it's not just giving links. Keep in mind CalStudio already allows to own and manage apps for free, just not to accept messages in them. My proposal is for end-users to sponsor messages directly. i.e.: Instead of:
Please add markdown rendering in chat
Please add markdown rendering. It displays as asterisks [e.g. asterisks (**) around ‘hello’ instead of displaying hello / hello in bold or italics]. Same with bullets. Dashes show as dashes instead of rendering as bullets. The AI often provides full markdown responses, but the chat can’t render them. MAJOR shortcoming, and super-basic. Please add it.
App-Initiated Learning Loop
This is a process that the app runs periodically to help analyze its own performance, identify patterns, and surface areas for improvement in the base prompt and training materials, to make the app more self-learning. It would work in four key steps: Define the trigger, have the LLM analyze gaps in responses to user queries, have the LLM identify areas for improvement, and then revise the base prompt and training materials. I’ve set this up with my app directly (and to only run when I’m the logged-in user), but what would be most useful would be if my app could directly access its own analytics, so I don’t have to download and upload these manually.
Adjustable Width of Past Chats Sidebar
I’d like our users to be able to make the past chats sidebar narrower or wider. Right now, it’s hard to see the topics because the window is too narrow. Also, when I collapse that window on Chrome, there’s no way to expand it again so I either need to page back or reload the page.
Additional Styling Options
More control over styling look and feel! Incorporating an AI product into your website needs to have consistent branding options to feel part of you offering and not obviously another platform that feels like more of a bolt-on. Please consider giving more styling options for backgrounds, fonts, button styling and also consider providing some additional fun defaults like gradient, brutalist, moden themes. I would use Relume’s outstaning style generator as an excellent reference point: https://www.relume.io/style-guide
Dashboard Display
For the display panel of messages, users, and extra questions — would it be possible to have them as collapsible panels or chunked in groups of 100?"
Support direct WhatsApp integration (without Twilio)
I’ve previously discussed this privately, but now at least one competitor already supports it (see this doc), so perhaps is it time? Their version: Chooses the phone number on their own (although they promise to support custom numbers in the future), so basically the app owner just enables a “WhatApp integration” checkbox and that’s all! Requires an extra request for each message (similar to what CalStudio already does with images, etc.) Solves WhatsApp File/Image Sharing Integration (they state “If your agent can do it inside your app, it can do it in WhatsApp too”) Doesn’t reveal if and how they support a login system (which in CalStudio is required in order to solve Allow to monetize WhatsApp/Email/SMS Integration) The competitor’s announcement:
Allow to monetize WhatsApp/Email/SMS Integration
Basically everything that isn’t Web can’t be monetized which is unfortunate that some people might prefer those methods (especially WhatsApp) much better. For Email it should be relatively easy since you already have the users’ email addresses. Sure, it can forged but you can check if at least one of SPF/DKIM/DMARC passed. As for WhatsApp and SMS, you can ask users to fill in their phone number and then you should be all set.
Persistent Single Chat Session per User
Users often want to interact with the app in a continuous, ongoing way—like talking to the same assistant over time. Having multiple or fragmented sessions disrupts this expectation. The inability to maintain one consistent thread of conversation makes it harder to ask follow-up questions or build on past interactions. For a better experience, users should feel like they’re always returning to the same conversation, with history and context intact, rather than starting fresh every time.
Support multiple file uploads in chatbot
Currently, our chat bot built using calstudio.com only allows for single file uploads: if a user uploads a new file, it replaces the previous one. We need a feature that enables users to upload multiple files successively, so that all uploaded files remain visible and accessible. Example use-case: User uploads ‘file1.pdf’, then uploads ‘file2.docx’ — both files should be visible in the chat, not just the last one.
New User and Feedback Email
Please include the user's email address in the body of feedback and new user emails, and set it as the 'Reply-To' address in the email header.
Buy Credits
Allow to users buy more Than 1 Credit in Single Transaction Need More Option for One-Time Credit Packages
Request to Grant "Credit" Access to Other Admins in Project
We would like to request that the "Grant Credit" feature be made accessible to other admin-level users within our project. Currently, only the primary admin has this access, but for operational flexibility and smoother workflow, it’s important that designated team admins can also allocate credits to users as needed. Please enable this permission for all admin roles or provide a way to assign this specific capability.
Request for Razorpay Integration
We would like to request the integration of Razorpay as a payment gateway on our website/app. This will allow us to securely accept payments from Indian customers using UPI, credit/debit cards, and net banking.
WhatsApp File/Image Sharing Integration
Enable users to send files or images directly via WhatsApp. This feature would provide a seamless way for users to share content directly without having to share the link of the same.
