# Welcome

Zerobuild is one workspace for the three places your company's knowledge actually lives: **team chat**, **customer conversations**, and **docs**. They share one database from day one — so search works across all of it, notifications come from one place, and nothing has to be copied between tools.

> New here? Start with the **Quickstart** — ten minutes from signup to a live chat widget on your site.

## What's in these docs

- **Getting started** — workspace setup, inviting your team, settings
- **The surfaces** — team chat, Loops, live chat, the Library, contacts, and search
- **Publishing** — turn internal docs into a branded public help center
- **The widget** — the live chat embed your customers see
- **Open platform** — MCP, the REST API, webhooks, and the desktop app
- **Workspace admin** — billing, plans, and data export

## The idea behind it

Most teams run support in one tool, internal chat in another, and documentation in a third — then spend their day copying context between them. Zerobuild is built on a different premise: a customer message, a teammate message, and a doc are records in the same system. When everything lands in one substrate, the follow-ups get lighter — and the work stays where you can find it.
