AskMoses.com is a website affiliated with the Chabad Orthodox Jewish movement. Via the site, users can query a database of Judaism-related topics or live chat with a rabbi.[1]

The site's database includes topics ranging from Israeli history to sexual mores from an Orthodox Jewish-perspective. Live chats are available in English, Russian, Spanish, French, and Hebrew. The website claimed in 2009 that 30% of visitors were non-Jewish, and most of the Jewish visitors were secular.[2][1]

In 2001, the website featured 60 rabbis working 24 hours a day, six days a week. The rabbis did not work on Shabbat. The website's budget of $475,000 was funded by donations.[3] In 2009, the site claimed to surpass one million live chats[2] answered by its staff of approximately 45 Los Angeles-based male and female scholars and educators.[1]
