Description

Gendox AI Agent turns your existing content into an AI assistant your visitors can
talk to. The agent is trained on the posts, pages and WooCommerce products you choose —
so it answers from your own material, not the open internet.

It can also go beyond answering questions: the agent can navigate visitors to the right
page for them, and developers can register custom actions (like filling in a form) so the
chat becomes a way for visitors to get things done, not just find information.

Pick which content trains each agent, pick which pages show the chat widget, and the
assistant does the rest.

Why use an AI agent trained on your own content?

Answer customer questions automatically — visitors get instant answers drawn from your documentation, FAQs and product pages, day or night.
Grounded in your own content — responses are drawn from the posts, pages and products you selected, not the open internet.
Reduce support load — common pre-sales and how-to questions get handled before they reach your inbox.
Let visitors act, not just read — the agent can navigate to the right page, and developers can extend it to trigger actions like filling in a form.

Features

AI chat widget for WordPress, embedded with one click
Train your AI agent on posts, pages, and WooCommerce products

Who it is for

Documentation sites, online shops, membership sites, SaaS marketing sites, and any site
where visitors ask the same questions repeatedly — or where you’d rather they just tell a
chat what they want instead of hunting through menus for it.

External service

This plugin connects your site to a Gendox instance, which is required for the plugin
to function. That can be the hosted service at gendox.dev or your
own self-hosted install — Gendox is open source. Content you explicitly assign to a
project is sent to that Gendox instance to train your agent, and visitor chat messages
are sent there to generate replies.

A gendox.dev account is not mandatory. You can self-host Gendox
and keep it free forever; see the open-source core at
github.com/ctrl-space-labs/gendox-core.
Point the plugin’s Chat Script URL and API Base URL at your instance, then use an API key
from that install.

An API key from whichever Gendox instance you use is required. No content leaves your site
until you enter that key and explicitly assign content to a project.

Installation

Go to Plugins in the Admin menu
Click on the button Add new
Search for Gendox AI Agent and click ‘Install Now’, or use the upload link to upload the plugin zip

FAQ

Do I need a Gendox account?: No. A hosted account at app.gendox.dev is optional. The plugin
needs a Gendox instance and an API key from that instance — either the hosted platform or
one you run yourself.
Can I self-host Gendox and keep it free?: Yes. Gendox is open source. You can self-host it and use this plugin against your own
install with no gendox.dev subscription. The core project is on GitHub:
https://github.com/ctrl-space-labs/gendox-core.
After you deploy it, set the Chat Script URL and Gendox API Base URL in the plugin
settings to your instance.
Does the AI make up answers?: The agent is trained on the content you assign to it, and answers from that material. Like
any AI system, it can still make mistakes — but grounding it in your own posts, pages and
products drastically reduces how often that happens compared to a generic chatbot.
Can I choose which pages show the chat widget?: Yes. Under Assign Chat you pick the post types and taxonomies where the widget
appears. It only loads on pages that match.
Can I train more than one agent?: Yes. Create several Gendox projects, assign different content to each, and target them at
different parts of your site.
Does it work with WooCommerce?: WooCommerce products can be assigned as training content alongside posts and pages. This
integration is still new and hasn’t been broadly tested yet — if you try it, we’d
appreciate hearing how it goes.
Can developers extend it?: Yes. The widget SDK lets you register browser-side tools the agent can call, and supply
extra page context with each message. See the
developer documentation and the
agent skills.

Changelog

1.0.6: August 20, 2026

Add a Getting Started documentation link under the settings page title
Add WordPress.org directory banner and icon assets
Minor bugfixes

1.0.5: July 30, 2026

Remove the Gendox app iframe from wp-admin; settings now include an Open Gendox button that opens the app in a new tab
Upgrade Select2 to 4.1.0 and Bootstrap to 5.3.8
Restrict the /content REST endpoint so a valid API key can only fetch published posts, pages, or products that are assigned to a Gendox project
Fix saving a new API key leaving the Gendox integration inactive until the plugin was deactivated and reactivated. Reload Content and other sync actions now work after the first Save
Clearing the API key still marks the integration inactive; saving a key when none was stored (or after a clear) now marks it active
WooCommerce products are returned to Gendox as structured HTML (title, price, SKU, stock, categories, short description, description, and image URLs), not only the long description
Product content can be extended via the gendox_product_content_fields filter (for example WooCommerce Subscriptions fields)

1.0.4: July 28, 2026

The settings screen is now a single page. The WordPress Settings and API Settings tabs are gone, and the API key and URL settings save together with one Save Changes button
Settings and projects are now grouped in bordered panels that span the full page width, so it is clear which button applies to which fields
Add a Gendox icon to the admin menu item
The API key is hidden by default, with a Show button to reveal it
Fix the embedded Gendox panel being blocked as insecure content on some deployments
Saving an API key for a different organization now moves the integration: the previous organization is deactivated and the new one activated. The key is only saved if both succeed
Remove the plugin’s data on uninstall: the projects table, the API key and URL settings, and all per-project chat placement settings
Notify Gendox that the integration is inactive when the plugin is deleted, not only when it is deactivated
Fix the chat widget sending an empty organization id when a project had been removed from Gendox, which produced requests to /organizations//projects
Remove chat placement settings belonging to projects that no longer exist, instead of leaving them behind on every projects refresh
Reject chat placement settings saved against a project that is no longer available
Fix a database error when refreshing projects for an account with no projects

1.0.3: July 25, 2026

Default Chat Script URL and Gendox API Base URL for new installs are now https://app.gendox.dev
Fix Chat Script Settings silently discarding the URL on save
Align the admin screens with the Gendox app look and feel
Give the embedded Gendox panel a proper height and framing
Stop the plugin styles from restyling every WordPress admin page
Bundle Bootstrap and Select2 locally instead of loading them from a CDN

1.0.2: Sept 16, 2025

Minor Bug fix in the UI

1.0.1: June 06, 2025

Add source url in the integration API

1.0.0: October 16, 2024
