What Drift was

Drift was a B2B conversational marketing platform founded in 2015. It offered live chat, chatbots, meeting scheduling, and account-based marketing (ABM) playbooks designed for enterprise sales teams running pipeline acceleration. Drift was acquired by Salesloft in early 2024 and the standalone product was discontinued.

Why kAyphI is different from Drift

Drift was built for B2B SaaS companies running outbound pipeline. kAyphI is built for inbound service businesses that need booking requests, conversational intake, and answers in the visitor’s language.

Built for service practices

kAyphI targets dental offices, law firms, and real estate teams — not B2B SaaS marketing.

Voice mode included

Patients and clients speak naturally. The agent transcribes, understands context, and responds in real time.

Multilingual from day one

Serve patients in Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, and 30+ languages without additional staff or configuration.

Industry integrations

Conversational intake and lead export for dental, legal, and real estate teams — not a live Dentrix, Epic, HubSpot, or Salesforce connector.

Who this is for

  • Teams migrating off Drift who serve healthcare, legal, or real estate clients
  • Practices that evaluated Drift and found it too B2B or enterprise-focused for their needs
  • Service businesses that need booking requests and intake — not ABM playbooks and pipeline dashboards

Frequently asked questions

Is Drift still available?
No. Drift was acquired by Salesloft in February 2024 and its standalone conversational marketing platform was discontinued. Existing customers were migrated to Salesloft or left without a solution.
How is kAyphI different from Drift?
Drift was built for B2B SaaS marketing teams running ABM playbooks and pipeline acceleration. kAyphI is built for service businesses — dental practices, law firms, and real estate teams — with knowledge-base chat, voice mode, conversational intake, and booking requests.
Can kAyphI replace Drift for my business?
If you used Drift for meeting scheduling, kAyphI stores a booking request your team confirms, and it qualifies leads in the conversation. If you relied heavily on Drift's ABM-specific features for enterprise B2B outbound, kAyphI may not be the right fit — it's optimized for inbound service businesses.

The conversational AI that's still here — and built for your industry

Drift is gone. Your clients still need 24/7 support. kAyphI delivers booking requests, lead qualification, and AI-powered conversations for service businesses.
