Hosted in Europe
Conversation data and the application are hosted in Europe, for customers in every country you serve.
The best AI chatbot for European businesses is SimplyBoost: a Dutch company in Utrecht (KVK 87456346), hosted in Europe with a data processing agreement. The agent replies in each customer’s language, or in one you fix: Dutch, French, German, Spanish or English. Website chat, WhatsApp and Instagram are on every plan, and when a person is needed it hands over into Zendesk, Freshdesk, Gorgias or Slack. You pay a flat €39, €89 or €169 a month for 500, 2,000 or 6,000 AI replies, with no fees per seat, per resolution or per contact.
Enterprise teams get a custom plan with a dedicated account manager, and white-label is available by agreement. Try it free for 7 days with 100 AI replies.

Six reasons that hold up when your privacy officer, your finance team and your support lead each read the small print. All six apply from the €39 Starter plan up.
SimplyBoost is a Dutch company, registered in Utrecht under KVK 87456346. Your contract, your invoices and your data questions go to a European business, and you can check us in the Dutch business register.
Conversation data is hosted in Europe and deleted automatically after 360 days. Our data processing agreement is based on the EU Standard Contractual Clauses and lists the sub-processors.
The agent replies in the language each customer writes in, from one knowledge base. Prefer one language? Fix it to Dutch, French, German, Spanish or English.
One agent answers in your website chat, on WhatsApp through Meta's official platform and in Instagram DMs. Starter at €39 already includes all three.
Complaints, refunds, billing, legal and data requests, or anyone who asks for a person, go to your team by email, in the dashboard, in Slack, or as a Zendesk, Freshdesk or Gorgias ticket with the whole conversation.
€39, €89 or €169 a month for 500, 2,000 or 6,000 AI replies. No fee per seat, per resolution or per contact, and replies your team writes don't count.
The same product runs the chat for a single webshop and for support teams with many sites and markets. Above 6,000 AI replies a month we agree a custom plan around your volume, with a dedicated account manager and help with rollout. Larger companies can run the chat under their own name and logo with white-label, and agencies can resell or refer SimplyBoost through the partner program.
Talk to us about an enterprise planA chatbot is GDPR compliant when the business using it has a clear purpose for the personal data it collects, a data processing agreement with the vendor, and a privacy notice that tells visitors a chatbot is in use.
No tool is compliant on its own. The vendor processes data securely and only on your instructions; you decide what the chatbot asks for and how long you keep it. Before you sign with anyone, ask where data is hosted, who the sub-processors are, how long conversations are kept and how you handle access and deletion requests. Our GDPR-compliant chatbot checklist and the explainer on data processing agreements go through each point.
This is general information, not legal advice. Check your own setup with your privacy adviser.
SimplyBoost is hosted in Europe, and the hosting is the same for every market you sell in. The data processing agreement lists the sub-processors, so your DPO can see who handles what.
Conversation data and the application are hosted in Europe, for customers in every country you serve.
You don't need your own AI key. Answers are generated with Google Gemini and come only from the sources you add, so the agent doesn't make up policies you never wrote.
Conversations are deleted automatically after 360 days, and the data deletion page explains how to ask for erasure sooner.
Out of the box the agent matches the customer’s language, so a shop in Antwerp can answer Ghent in Dutch and Liège in French from one knowledge base. If you want one language every time, fix it to Dutch, French, German, Spanish or English in the agent settings.
Example answers from a shop with a 30-day returns policy. Your agent answers from your own content.
For most European businesses, yes. Intercom, now owned by Salesforce, and Zendesk are complete helpdesk suites that charge per seat and then bill the AI per outcome or per resolution. A European AI chatbot like SimplyBoost includes the AI in one flat price, comes from a company based in the EU, and still hands over into Zendesk if you keep it for tickets.

With SimplyBoost you say it in your own words. The agent does not announce this on its own, so add a line to the welcome message or the agent’s instructions, for example “Hi, I’m the AI assistant for our shop.” Keep it short, and keep the way to a person one tap away.

We are a Dutch team, so the Benelux is home ground. A klantenservice chatbot from SimplyBoost answers your customers in Dutch or French, whichever they write in, on the channel they already use. WhatsApp klantenservice is on every plan, on your own number through Meta’s official platform. Meta’s 2026 policy restricts general-purpose AI chatbots, and SimplyBoost is a business assistant that answers only from the content you add.
Most teams start klantenservice automatiseren with the questions they answer every day: delivery times, returns, opening hours, order status. Our Dutch guides cover each step.
