Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Word.Chat AI WordPress Plugin

Getting Started

What is Word.Chat?

Word.Chat is an AI-powered WordPress plugin that adds an intelligent chatbot to your website. It's trained directly on your site's content, so it can answer visitor questions accurately and instantly. Think of it as a 24/7 customer support assistant that knows everything about your business.

How does Word.Chat work?

Word.Chat uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) technology. When you sync your content, we create embeddings of your posts, pages, and other content. When a visitor asks a question, the AI searches your content for relevant information and generates a natural, conversational answer based exclusively on what's on your site.

How long does it take to set up Word.Chat?

Setup takes less than 5 minutes. Simply install the plugin from the WordPress directory, activate it, click "Sync My Content" to train the AI on your site, and add the chat widget using a shortcode or block. No coding required.

Do I need coding skills to use Word.Chat?

No! Word.Chat is designed to be zero-code. Everything is handled through an intuitive WordPress admin interface. If you can install a WordPress plugin and click a button, you can use Word.Chat.

Features & Capabilities

What types of content can Word.Chat learn from?

Word.Chat can train on all your WordPress posts and pages. This includes blog posts, product descriptions, service pages, about pages, FAQs, and any other published content. The more content you have, the more comprehensive your chatbot's knowledge will be.

Can I customize how the chatbot looks?

Yes! You can customize the chat widget's colors, position, welcome message, and placeholder text to match your brand. The chatbot seamlessly integrates with your site's design.

Does Word.Chat work on mobile devices?

Absolutely! The chat widget is fully responsive and works perfectly on smartphones, tablets, and desktop computers. Your visitors get the same great experience regardless of their device.

Can the chatbot answer questions in multiple languages?

Yes! If your site content is in multiple languages, Word.Chat can understand and respond in those languages. The underlying AI model supports over 50 languages, making it perfect for international websites.

What happens when the chatbot doesn't know the answer?

If the chatbot can't find relevant information in your content, it will politely let the visitor know and can direct them to contact your support team. This ensures visitors never receive incorrect or "hallucinated" information.

What are the WordPress requirements?

Word.Chat requires WordPress 5.5 or higher and PHP 7.4 or higher. It works with any WordPress theme and is compatible with popular page builders like Elementor, Gutenberg, and WPBakery.

Will Word.Chat slow down my website?

No. The chat widget loads asynchronously and doesn't block your page rendering. The script is lightweight (under 50KB) and loads from a fast CDN. Your site speed and performance will not be negatively affected.

Does Word.Chat comply with GDPR and privacy regulations?

Yes. Word.Chat is designed with privacy in mind. We don't collect personal information from your visitors unless they voluntarily provide it. The chatbot doesn't use cookies for tracking, and we provide tools to help you comply with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations.

Can I use Word.Chat on multiple sites?

Each WordPress site requires its own Word.Chat installation and license. This ensures that each site's chatbot is trained on the correct content and maintains separate analytics and usage limits.

Content Management

How do I update the chatbot when I publish new content?

Word.Chat can automatically sync new content when you publish or update posts and pages. You can also manually trigger a sync at any time from the WordPress admin panel to refresh the chatbot's knowledge base.

Can I exclude certain pages from being indexed?

Yes! You can choose which posts and pages to include in the chatbot's training. This is useful if you have internal documentation, draft content, or pages you don't want the chatbot to reference.

How much content do I need for the chatbot to work well?

Word.Chat can work with as little as 5-10 pages of content, but the more content you have, the better it performs. Sites with 20+ pages of quality content will see the best results. The chatbot gets smarter as you add more content.

What happens if I delete content from my site?

When you delete a post or page and sync again, Word.Chat automatically removes that content from the chatbot's knowledge base. This ensures your chatbot never references outdated or deleted information.
