# Deploy Your Agent

> Connect your thinnestAI agent to any channel — websites, messaging apps, phone calls, voice, and APIs.

# Deploy Your Agent

Once you've built and tested your agent, deploy it to reach users wherever they are. thinnestAI supports deployment across chat, voice, and API channels — all from a single agent configuration.

## Chat Channels

## How It Works

Every channel connects to the same agent — same instructions, same tools, same knowledge base. The only differences are:

1. **Input/output format** — Chat channels use text. Voice channels use speech-to-text and text-to-speech. thinnestAI handles the translation.
2. **Session management** — Each user on each platform gets their own persistent conversation session.
3. **Lead capture** — Messaging platforms automatically capture contact info (phone, username, etc.) as leads. Web widgets can show a configurable lead form.

## Quick Start

### Chat — Add a widget to your site:

```html theme={null}
<script
  src="https://api.thinnest.ai/embed/widget.js"
  data-publishable-key="YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY"
  data-agent-id="YOUR_AGENT_PUBLIC_ID"
  data-widget-type="chat"
  async
></script>
```

### Voice — Add a voice button to your site:

```html theme={null}
<script
  src="https://api.thinnest.ai/embed/widget.js"
  data-publishable-key="YOUR_PUBLISHABLE_KEY"
  data-agent-id="YOUR_AGENT_PUBLIC_ID"
  data-widget-type="voice"
  async
></script>
```

For phone calls and messaging platforms, navigate to your agent's **Deploy** tab in the dashboard.

## Multi-Channel Strategy

Deploy the same agent across chat and voice simultaneously:

* **Website widget + Phone** — Text chat for browsing, phone for complex issues
* **Website + WhatsApp** — Capture web visitors and continue conversations on WhatsApp
* **Slack + Teams** — Internal support bot available in both workspaces
* **Voice widget + Phone** — Browser voice for web visitors, phone for everyone else
* **API + Widget** — Custom frontend with fallback widget for other pages

All leads from every channel appear in your unified Leads dashboard, filterable by platform.
