Website widget (primary)

The fastest way to go live. The widget appears as a chat bubble on your website.

  1. Go to Dashboard → Embed.
  2. Copy the generated script tag.
  3. Paste it before </body> on your website.
  4. Refresh and test the chat.

Key features:

  • Shadow DOM isolation — Your site's CSS won't break the widget.
  • Session persistence — Chat history survives page refreshes.
  • Lazy loading — Widget loads asynchronously, won't slow your site.
  • Multilingual — Supports multiple languages with RTL.
  • Lead form — Capture contacts directly in the chat flow.

For full details, see Widget & Embed Code.

Messaging channels

Deploy to messaging platforms so users can chat with your bot where they already are:

  • WhatsApp — Enterprise messaging with lead capture and handoff. See WhatsApp Setup.
  • Telegram — 24/7 support via bot token.
  • Discord — AI expert in your community server.
  • Instagram / Messenger — Social DM automation.
  • Slack — Internal workspace assistant.

All channels feed conversations into the same dashboard for unified management.

For setup guides, see Channels.

WordPress plugin

For WordPress sites:

Deployment checklist

Before going live on any channel:

  • [ ] Knowledge base has content and items show Live status
  • [ ] OpenRouter is connected and a model is selected
  • [ ] System prompt is configured in Settings → Model Behavior
  • [ ] Widget or channel responds correctly in test mode
  • [ ] Lead form is configured (if you want to capture contacts)
  • [ ] Integrations are active (if you want leads routed to CRM/email)

FAQ

Q: The widget loads but doesn't answer.

  • Verify data-bot-id is correct and OpenRouter is connected. Check the knowledge base has content.

Q: Can I use the widget on multiple websites?

  • Yes. The same embed code works on any website. Use data-backend-url to point to your server.

Q: Can I deploy to multiple channels at once?

  • Yes. Enable as many channels as you need. All conversations from all channels appear in the same Conversations page.

Q: How do I test before going live?

  • Use the built-in test page at https://yourdomain.com:8321/chatbot-widget/test.html for the widget. For messaging channels, test with a personal account before sharing publicly.
