Connections

What Xcho connects to

Everything listed here is built into Xcho, and we explain what each one lets you do. You connect calendars, HubSpot and WhatsApp in Settings, each through the provider's own sign-in. We set up SMS for you. You can also connect an AI assistant, such as Claude, and ask it about your account.

  • The SMS number, set up for you

    A UK mobile number for your business, set up and run by Xcho. Nothing for you to open.

  • The AI, built in

    Xcho is hosted in London, and its AI runs on UK and EU routes. Texts, WhatsApp and other suppliers may process data elsewhere. No AI account to set up.

The Connect more channels panel in Xcho: WhatsApp, Google Calendar and HubSpot, each with what it adds and a Connect link to Settings.
Xcho suggests the connections you haven't made yet, and what each one adds.

By category

Messaging, calendars, your CRM and your website

SMS and WhatsApp

SMS first, WhatsApp if they choose

The opening text goes by SMS. Leads who reply can choose to carry on in WhatsApp with the same persona, or keep texting if they prefer.

  • SMSSet up for you

    A UK mobile number in your business's name. Nothing to sign up for.

  • WhatsAppConnect

    Your own WhatsApp Business account, through WhatsApp's own sign-up.

A lead who prefers WhatsApp carries on there, in the same conversation.

Deals ending this winter

WhatsApp

Hi Lily, it's Grace, an AI assistant for Halden & Pike. Is your current deal ending this winter?

Yes, in January. Can we carry on over WhatsApp?

Continued on WhatsApp

Of course. Would Tuesday at 11am suit for a quick call?

Perfect, thank you.

Google Calendar and a shared diary

Real free times, booked into the diary

The persona offers two real free times and books the one the lead picks.

  • Google CalendarConnect

    Each team member connects their own, inside the booking hours you set.

  • Shared diaryConnect

    Or one company calendar, with calls assigned to someone on the team.

No back and forth: the lead picks a time and it is in the diary.

HubSpot and spreadsheets

Bring in the leads you already hold

Import from HubSpot or a spreadsheet. Importing only adds people and sends nothing.

  • HubSpotConnect

    Contacts come in, and opt-outs stay in step both ways.

  • SpreadsheetBuilt in

    Upload a CSV. You confirm the permission you hold, by column or for the whole file.

Your list stays where it is, and an opt-out in HubSpot holds in Xcho too.

Forms and webhooks

New enquiries, followed up while they are fresh

Point your website form at a live campaign. A new enquiry gets its first message soon after it arrives, as long as you have permission to message it, it is not on your do-not-contact list, it is in a country Xcho supports, and it is inside your sending hours with funds in your account.

  • Website form or webhookConnect

    One address per live campaign. Name, phone, email and source.

A new enquiry hears from you while it is still fresh.

Hi Evie, it's Grace, an AI assistant for Halden & Pike. Thanks for your enquiry. When does your current deal end?

AI assistants (MCP)

Ask your AI assistant about your account

Xcho has an MCP server, the standard way for an assistant such as Claude to connect to another service. Connect it once, then ask about your campaigns, contacts and calls in plain English.

  3. Ask in plain English

    It reads your account, as your role allows.

Read only. Actions stay off until they are switched on.
