How it works

Parot allows anyone to build a community into any site or app by simply adding in a widget. Like embedding your own StackOverflow on a business, product or content page.

Setup steps

1. Simple create a post on Parot.app for a discussion on a particular topic like Twitter, or a channel for multiple topics.
2. Apply controls to your post and channel to restrict how users can respond, the word count, type of content (videos, images, rich text) and more.
3. Embed our widget onto your site with the topic ID as a parameter.
4. Immediately have a forum with real-time updates, moderation and your community embedded onto any site or app.

Our vision

By distributing chat capabilities across businesses we want to enable a system like StackOverflow for any business, community or topic. Allowing users to to keep information up to date and relevant. The more relevant a users post is, the higher score it will be. The higher score they get, the more revenue they generate.

Why

• Community is important, but buulding the tools to enable this is not. Businesses and developers should spend time on their domain and not waste it managing content.
• Social media aggregates content into a single platform, which you don't own or control. Parot allows you to distribute your community into your app or site.
• Knowledgebases are important and critical but managing the content to keep it up to date is difficult. Outsource this to your community to keep topics relevant and up to down
• Embed this across different pages for topics specific to that product or page, or embed a channel on your site to allow users to discuss multiple topics
