Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/sentient-ai` 2. Activate the plugin from the **Plugins** menu 3. Go to **Sentient AI Settings** to configure your AI provider and API key 4. Enable the chatbot and customize the welcome message 5. Place `[sentient_ai_chat]` on any page, or use the floating widget ## FAQ.KG ### Does this work without an API key? Yes! With Local Brain enabled, the chatbot answers FAQ questions locally without any API key. For AI-powered responses beyond FAQs, you’ll need an API key from one of the supported providers. ### What makes this different from other chatbot plugins? **Everything.** Sentient AI has: – Local Brain (zero-cost local processing) – WordPress Autopilot (site management through chat) – Sentient Memory (continuous learning)– Empathy Engine (emotion-aware responses) – Glass Box (transparent confidence scoring) No other chatbot plugin has all of these. ### Does it work with WooCommerce? Yes! The chatbot works alongside WooCommerce. You can train the AI on your product pages and answer customer questions instantly. ### Can I use it without sending data to external APIs? Yes! Enable Privacy Mode in settings. The chatbot will only use your local FAQ database and never send data to OpenAI, Claude, or any external service. ### Does it slow down my website? No. The chatbot loads asynchronously in the footer. Local Brain assets (Fuse.js + local-brain.js) are only loaded when enabled and total ~8KB. ### How does Local Brain work? Local Brain uses Fuse.js for fuzzy search across your FAQ database. When a user asks a question, it searches locally in the browser first. If it finds a good match, it returns the answer without any API call. Falls back to cloud AI for unmatched queries. ### Can I customize the chatbot’s appearance? Yes. You can change the welcome message, chat position (left/right), colors via CSS, and toggle confidence scores, source links, and sentiment indicators. ## Сын-пикирлер There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Sentient AI – WordPress AI Chatbot with Local Brain, Autopilot & Empathy Engine” is open source software.
