Chat SDK
Universal TypeScript layer for building bots and agents across chat platforms
Chat SDK is an open-source TypeScript toolkit from Vercel designed to build bots and AI agents that run across multiple messaging apps. It abstracts platform differences so developers can write bot logic once and deploy to Slack, Teams, Discord, and Google Chat.
What it's for
- Build a single AI agent that deploys simultaneously to Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Discord
- Scaffold a multi-platform bot project quickly using the CLI starter
- Integrate internal team tools and notification bots with standardized TypeScript adapters
Features
- Cross-platform adapters for Slack, Discord, Google Chat, Microsoft Teams, and others
- Adapter catalog system separating official, vendor, and community integrations
- Quick project scaffolding via the create-chat-sdk CLI tool
- TypeScript-first API designed for seamless integration with AI models and agents
- Webhook-oriented architecture compatible with modern serverless deployments
Pricing
Open source. Free and open source under the MIT license.
