Core Features
Your AI chatbot includes everything you need for intelligent customer engagement:
✅ Agentic AI Actions System
Your AI doesn’t just answer questions—it takes action. Detects user intent and triggers real actions: send emails, fire Slack notifications. Conversationally collects unlimited custom parameters including smart recommendations (vector-searched WordPress CPTs—products, services, any custom post type) and includes them in action execution. No static forms needed—just natural conversation that gets things done.
✅ Live Agent Handoff via Slack & Telegram
Seamless AI-to-human transition when needed. When your AI can’t help, conversations transfer directly to your team via Slack channel or Telegram group with full context. Human agents see entire chat history and can respond in real-time from their phone or desktop. Setup is simple—create a Telegram group, attach a custom bot, and start receiving conversations directly in your Telegram app. WhatsApp support coming soon.
✅ Quick 3-Step AI Chatbot Setup
Guided wizard launches after activation. Connect your AI provider, configure personality, add knowledge sources, and customize appearance—live in under 5 minutes.
✅ Advanced AI Chatbot RAG Technology
Train on unlimited WordPress content using Retrieval-Augmented Generation. Supports pages, posts, custom post types, PDFs, text files, rich text input, Q&A entries, and webpage content fetched from URLs. Intelligent intent recognition retrieves the most relevant knowledge for accurate responses. Auto-sync keeps WordPress knowledge sources (pages, posts, custom post types) automatically up to date—no manual re-training needed when content changes. Knowledge Filtering lets you accurately filter and view which sources are available in your knowledge base. AI Agent can also render images from learned sources (Beta) for richer, more visual responses.
✅ Chat Discussions Dashboard
Complete conversation management with detailed insights. View all transcripts, see which knowledge sources AI used, add missing Q&A entries directly, and track user information including guest/logged-in status and IP addresses.
✅ Cost-Optimized AI Usage
Smart token management minimizes API charges. Intelligent request optimization ensures you pay only for what you need. Configure rate limits to control expenses.
✅ Streaming AI Responses
Real-time word-by-word AI replies for faster, more natural conversations. Especially useful when short answers setting is disabled – long responses are printed naturally and quickly instead of making users wait for the full response to be ready.
✅ Customizable Chat Experience
Unlimited widgets including Message Starters, Message Prompts, Chat History, Links, Lead Capture, and custom announcements. Lead Capture widget collects user name and email before allowing conversation to start—perfect for lead generation and user identification. Fully customizable greetings with emoji support. Simplified single-step widget publishing makes adding widgets effortless.
✅ Flexible Vector Storage
Choose local WordPress database (free, unlimited) or Pinecone for enterprise-scale knowledge bases. Vector embeddings enable fast, contextually relevant retrieval.
✅ Complete Customization
Customize colors, chatbot icon, AI avatar, chat box size, themes (light/dark/system), positioning, emojis, and greeting messages. Adapts seamlessly to all devices.
✅ Multi-Language Support
Conversations in multiple languages with RTL compatibility. The AI chatbot responds in your visitors’ language.
✅ GDPR Compliant
All conversation data stored locally on your WordPress site. You control data retention, export, and deletion policies.
