## Description

**MooChatAI is an AI chatbot for WooCommerce** that turns store visitors into customers.
The chat widget answers product questions instantly 24/7, recommends products from
your catalog, recovers abandoned carts, captures email leads, and hands off complex
chats to your human agents — all in 90+ languages.

Unlike a generic live chat plugin, MooChatAI understands your products. It reads
your WooCommerce catalog, learns from your own pages and FAQs, and gives shoppers
exact answers with product cards and one-click “Add to Cart” buttons right inside
the chat. Use your own OpenAI API key (BYOK) for full cost control, or let MooChatAI
host the AI for you.

#### Key Features

 * **Smart Product Recommendations** – AI understands natural language and recommends
   products based on customer queries
 * **24/7 Availability** – Your AI assistant never sleeps, helping customers around
   the clock
 * **Easy Integration** – Works seamlessly with WooCommerce
 * **Product Cards** – Beautiful product cards displayed directly in the chat
 * **Add to Cart** – Customers can add products to cart without leaving the conversation
 * **Cart Management** – Update quantities, remove items, and view cart directly
   from chat
 * **Checkout Guidance** – AI guides customers through the checkout process
 * **Lead Capture** – Optional pre-chat form to collect visitor emails

   time chat

#### Perfect For

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/moochat-ai/` or install through
    WordPress plugins screen
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Complete the setup wizard to choose your plan type
 4. For BYOK: Enter your OpenAI API key
 5. For Standard plans: Purchase a license from moochatai.com
 6. Click “Sync Products” to sync your WooCommerce catalog
 7. The chat widget will appear on your store!

## FAQ

### Does this require WooCommerce?

MooChatAI is designed specifically for WooCommerce stores. While the chat widget
can work on any WordPress site, product recommendations and cart features require
WooCommerce.

### What is BYOK (Bring Your Own Key)?

BYOK allows you to use your own OpenAI API key. You pay OpenAI directly for AI usage,
giving you full control over costs and model selection. This is ideal for stores
with predictable chat volumes.

### How does the Standard plan differ from BYOK?

With Standard plans, we provide the AI infrastructure – you don’t need an OpenAI
key. This is simpler to set up but includes product limits and monthly pricing.

### Can I customize the chat appearance?

Yes! You can customize the primary color, position (left/right), greeting message,
and language from the Settings page.

### What languages are supported?

The AI chatbot responds in 90+ languages automatically via browser detection. The
widget UI is fully translated in 26 languages: English, Spanish, French, German,
Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional),
Korean, Russian, Arabic (RTL), Turkish, Hindi, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, Hebrew(
RTL), Czech, Romanian, Swedish, Hungarian, Ukrainian, and Greek. Even for languages
without UI translations, the AI still responds in the visitor’s language.

### How does human handoff work?

When enabled, the AI can transfer complex conversations to human agents. Agents 
use a web-based dashboard to chat with customers in real-time.

### Is my data secure?

Yes. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. Chat data is stored securely and can be
deleted on request. For BYOK users, your API key is encrypted at rest. See our Privacy
Policy for details.

### Can customers track their orders?

Yes. Customers can ask “Where is my order?” and provide their order number and billing
email to get real-time WooCommerce order status, including shipping tracking when
a tracking plugin is installed.

### How do I add an AI chatbot to my WooCommerce store?

Install MooChatAI from the Plugins screen, activate it, complete the setup wizard(
choose BYOK with your OpenAI key, or pick a hosted plan), then click “Sync Products”
so the AI learns your catalog. The chat widget appears on your storefront automatically—
no theme edits, no shortcodes required.

### Does MooChatAI work without WooCommerce?

The chat widget itself works on any WordPress site, so you can answer general questions,
capture leads, and offer human handoff without WooCommerce. Product recommendations,
add-to-cart actions, order tracking, and abandoned cart recovery require WooCommerce.
For non-WooCommerce sites, train the AI on your pages and posts through the Content
Training screen.

### Can I train the AI on my pages, posts, or PDFs?

Yes. The Content Training page lets you select any WordPress pages, blog posts, 
or custom post types to send to the AI’s knowledge base, and you can drag-and-drop
PDF documents (manuals, policies, brochures) too. The AI references this content
when answering customer questions.

### Is MooChatAI a live chat plugin or an AI chatbot?

Both. The AI handles routine questions 24/7. When the AI can’t help or the customer
asks for a person, the conversation is handed off to your live agents through a 
real-time agent dashboard. You get the cost savings of an AI chatbot with the safety
net of human live chat.

## Changelog

#### 1.2.8

 * Compatibility: tested with WordPress 7.1 and WooCommerce 11.1.
 * Improvement: the chat widget now exposes a small public API (window.MooChatAI)
   for theme and integration code, and remembers the visitor across the widget and
   store cookies consistently.
 * Fixed: the proactive chat delay setting is applied exactly as configured.

 * Fixed: pages and posts are no longer treated as $0 products in the Products sync.
   Pages, posts, and PDFs now train the AI exclusively through the Content Training

   cache.

   orders.

   order data.
