Zero API costs, works offline, no data leaves the site.

Automatically escalates frustrated users to human support.<\/p><\/li>\n Glass Box Transparency<\/strong> \u2014 Every AI response shows a confidence score (0-100%) with source attribution.

For AI-generated responses beyond existing FAQs, an API key from a supported provider is required.<\/p><\/dd>\n OpenAI (GPT-4o, GPT-4, GPT-3.5), Claude by Anthropic, Google Gemini, OpenRouter (multi-model access), and Hugging Face. You can switch between providers at any time.<\/p><\/dd>\n The Vector Database (v2.8.0) converts your content into mathematical embeddings and stores them for similarity search. The Local MySQL engine works on any shared hosting using standard WordPress tables. For higher scale, Pinecone and Supabase cloud engines handle millions of vectors with SOC 2\/GDPR compliance.<\/p><\/dd>\n For shared hosting with under 10,000 posts, the Local MySQL engine works without any additional setup. For larger sites, Pinecone or Supabase offer free tiers and enterprise-grade scalability.<\/p><\/dd>\n The MCP Server implements the Model Context Protocol, a standard for connecting AI agents to external systems. It allows tools like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or custom AI agents to interact with your WordPress site \u2014 querying the chatbot, searching FAQs, managing content, and accessing analytics \u2014 all authenticated via API key.<\/p><\/dd>\n Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) ensures your content is cited by AI-powered search engines.
