FAQs

What is a Monthly Active User (MAU)?

A Monthly Active User is counted as any user who connects with our Chat API for read/write access.

We count a user as active when:

  • There's a Session created for them in any of our SDKs
  • A list of their conversations is requested via our REST API

Do you offer a free sandbox/development account?

Yes, all plans include a forever free development mode. You get credentials for using TalkJS in production by "going live" — this is the process of entering credit card information and going through checkout. Once you do that, you have two fully separate apps in the TalkJS dashboard, with two fully separate groups of users, conversations, and settings. You can then use the test app for development and testing, and the live app for your users.

How many concurrently connected users can I have?

While we don't have a hard limit on concurrent users, we typically consider fair usage for max concurrent connected users to be around 10% of MAU. While we won't immediately ask you to upgrade if you go over the limit sporadically, we will ask you to upgrade if it's a regular occurrence.

Can I use my TalkJS subscription/AppID on multiple websites?

A single TalkJS subscription can be used on one website/app. If you'd like to use TalkJS on multiple websites or apps then you'll need multiple subscriptions.

Are you a volunteer-run organisation?

We love open-source and community projects, so we have made TalkJS entirely free for volunteer-run organisations and hobby projects. To apply, simply create a free TalkJS account.

We needed chat and didn't want to build it ourselves because it needs to be really great. The TalkJS team is laser-focused on chat, and we're focused on building a great auction marketplace.
