B2B lead qualification, routing and instant meeting booking for revenue teams

Updated · Pricing checked October 2026

What is Chili Piper?

Chili Piper is a B2B website conversion platform that qualifies inbound leads, routes them to the right sales rep and books a meeting at the moment they show interest. It is built for go-to-market teams at mid-size and enterprise software companies, where speed to lead and fair meeting distribution matter more than a simple booking link.

The platform bundles several products. Form Concierge turns web form fills into booked meetings, Chat AI qualifies visitors in conversation, Handoff lets SDRs book on behalf of account executives, and Distro routes leads from webinars, events and content. ChiliCal, its calendar tool, is included with every seat. Chili Piper has served revenue teams since 2016 and sells mainly through demos and annual contracts.

How does Chili Piper work?

  1. Connect your CRM and calendars

    Link Salesforce or another CRM plus rep calendars so Chili Piper can read lead data and availability.

  2. Build routing rules

    Define qualification criteria, territories, account ownership and round-robin pools that decide which rep gets each lead.

  3. Add it to forms and chat

    Attach Form Concierge to web forms or enable Chat AI so qualified visitors see a calendar right after they convert.

  4. Book, hand off and measure

    Meetings land on the right rep's calendar, SDRs hand off to AEs, and funnel analytics show conversion from form to meeting.
