Static chat bubbles get ignored. Visitors scroll right past them.

An animated trigger catches the eye for a fraction of a second. That fraction of a second is the difference between a conversation that starts and a lead that disappears.

BotChap's animated trigger system is the feature we built first, and it's still unique in the market. Every preset feels natural rather than jarring — it earns attention without irritating the person looking at it.

What Animated Triggers Does for You

12+ animation presets

Pulse, Bounce, Shake, Glow, Jump, Breathe, Float, Wiggle. Every preset is production-ready and works on any device.

Entry animations

Control how the widget appears when the page loads: Fade, Zoom, Fall, Slide Up, Slide Down, Slide Left, Slide Right.

Continuous animations

Once visible, the widget keeps moving. Pulse and Breathe are subtle. Bounce and Shake are hard to miss. Your choice based on how much attention your widget should demand.

Motion gets clicked more

A moving call-to-action outperforms a static one. Your chat widget is a CTA. Animated triggers treat it like one.

Live preview in the builder

Every animation plays in the builder before you publish. Pick your combination, see it working, adjust it. No surprises.

Works with any trigger shape

Circle, rounded square, pill. The animations apply to all shapes. Keep your brand style and still get the attention-grabbing effect.
