Quickstart
Welcome to Chatbotistic. This guide gets your first widget live in under three minutes. You’ll create an account, build a chatbot, and embed it on your site.
1. Install the embed script
Paste the snippet below into your site, just before the closing body tag. Replace YOUR_WIDGET_ID with the ID from your dashboard.
<script>
(function(w,d){
w.chatbotisticConfig = { widgetId: "YOUR_WIDGET_ID" };
var s = d.createElement("script");
s.src = "https://cdn.chatbotistic.com/embed.js";
s.async = true; d.head.appendChild(s);
})(window, document);
</script>
2. WordPress plugin
If you’re on WordPress, install the plugin instead — no code required. Go to Plugins → Add New, search for Chatbotistic, install and activate. Paste your API key in Settings → Chatbotistic.
Embed with shortcode
[chatbotistic widget="lead-capture"] [chatbotistic widget="booking" theme="dark"] [chatbotistic widget="ai-chat" position="bottom-right"]
3. Train your AI
From your dashboard, go to AI → Knowledge. Paste in your website URL or upload your FAQ document. Training takes 30 to 90 seconds depending on size.
4. Test it
Open the preview in your dashboard. Type a question. Watch the response. Tweak the system prompt under AI → Personality to match your brand voice.
Common questions
How do I embed Chatbotistic on a non-WordPress site?
Paste a single script tag into your site’s HTML before the closing body tag. Your widget loads asynchronously and respects your site’s performance.
Can I customize the widget colors and branding?
Yes. Every plan above Free includes color, position, and font customization. White Label plans get full CSS control and custom domains.
What happens to conversations after I cancel?
You can export every conversation and lead at any time. After cancellation, your data is retained for 90 days and then permanently deleted.
