## Description

Meet Botisst, a feature-rich, self-hosted AI chatbot designed specifically for WordPress.
Instead of routing your data through expensive third-party subscriptions, Botisst
connects your site directly to OpenAI or Google Gemini.

Botisst includes an advanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) engine built right
in. You can train the AI on your own content by adding text snippets, website URLs,
and existing WordPress pages or posts. Your knowledge base is securely indexed and
stored using either a built-in local SQLite vector database (zero configuration 
required) or Pinecone (for scalable cloud storage).

#### Key Features

 * **Multiple LLM Providers**: Connect directly and securely to OpenAI or Google
   Gemini. Easily configure fallbacks or switch models in seconds.
 * **Train Your Assistant (RAG)**: Feed the chatbot custom text snippets, documents,
   or website links. The built-in Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) engine scans
   and indexes knowledge to provide accurate answers.
 * **Advanced Vector Databases**: Out-of-the-box support for a local SQLite vector
   store, or integrate with cloud services like Pinecone.
 * **Modern React Settings & Widget**: Snappy, beautiful React admin dashboard (
   with a live chat preview) and a performant, non-blocking floating front-end widget.
 * **Elementor Page Builder Support**: Easily embed and customize your AI Assistant
   using the custom Elementor widget.
 * **Flexible Shortcode Integration**: Use the `[botisst_ai]` shortcode to easily
   render the chat interface inline on any page or post.
 * **Chat Logs & Sessions**: View and review interactive visitor chat transcripts
   directly from the WordPress admin panel.
 * **Context & Memory Optimization**: Smart backend token optimization that automatically
   keeps context history concise, saving you API costs.

## FAQ

### Do I need a paid subscription to use this?

No monthly fees! You only pay for what you use directly through your OpenAI or Google
Gemini developer accounts. Both platforms offer generous free tiers or low pay-as-
you-go pricing.

### Can I put the chat inside a page instead of a floating bubble?

Absolutely. Just paste the `[botisst_ai]` shortcode anywhere on a page or post, 
and the chat interface will load inline right where you put it.

### Where is my data sent?

Your chat messages are sent directly to the AI provider you configure (OpenAI or
Google Gemini) to generate responses. We don’t route your requests through any third-
party servers, keeping your data private and secure.

### A Friendly Disclaimer

Because our chatbot uses language models (like OpenAI and Gemini), it might occasionally
write things that aren’t 100% accurate. We recommend keeping an eye on your prompt
instructions and double-checking important info.

I’ve been using this plugin for a while, and it works really well. Setup was easy,
the chatbot responds quickly, and everything runs smoothly. Happy with the overall
experience!
