👀✨ How do you handle human takeover in n8n chatbots?

When building chatbots with n8n, one question kept coming up from clients:

  • “Can I see the conversations?”
  • “Can I jump in when the bot messes up?”

The bot itself wasn’t the problem. The real challenge was giving clients a clean, simple way to be involved without digging through executions, logs, or raw webhook data.

So over the last few months, I’ve been building Trilox.

Trilox is a shared inbox for n8n chatbot conversations with human takeover:

  • Bots handle chats by default
  • Humans can jump in instantly when needed
  • Conversations can be handed back to the bot
  • WhatsApp, Telegram, Messenger, web widget — all in one inbox

I’m also building a dedicated n8n community node that plugs directly into workflows:

  • Record bot + visitor messages
  • Check who’s handling the conversation
  • Escalate to a human when needed
  • Receive human replies via webhook

We’re currently pre-launch and sharing progress publicly.
If this is something you’d use, you can join the waitlist to be the first to know when it opens:

Would love to hear how others are handling human-in-the-loop chatbots in n8n :eyes:
