How to Add AI Chat to a WordPress Site

Adding AskMyBusiness to a WordPress site takes one line of code, with WordPress-specific steps covered in the docs. There is no rebuild and no migration — the assistant runs on the site the business already has.

What the install actually is

AskMyBusiness is designed to sit on top of an existing website rather than replace it. For a WordPress site, that means pasting in one line of code, with the exact steps for WordPress laid out in /docs. The same one-line approach applies whatever platform built the site — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, or Google Tag Manager, each with its own instructions in /docs. If a business would rather not touch its site's code at all, AskMyBusiness can also run at its own link, with a QR code pointing to it instead.

Before any code goes on the site

Installing the code is not the first step. The working preview comes first, and it is private, free, and built in under 24 hours, with no card required to see it. That gives the WordPress site owner a chance to try the assistant, see how it answers real questions using the site's own content, and decide whether it is ready — before a single line of code touches the live site. Nothing goes live without that approval.

What happens once it is approved

Once the owner approves, checkout starts a 30-day free trial, and that is the point where a card is entered. After that, the plan is $99 a month flat for one business and one website, month to month, with cancellation possible anytime. There is no per-conversation meter and no separate feature tiers to navigate.

What changes on the site itself

Visitors to the WordPress site see the assistant available to answer questions, but the rest of the site is untouched. The assistant answers from whatever the business has published — services, pricing, hours, policies, booking pages — and the owner can set which sources and boundaries it uses, and change those from the dashboard at any time. Content can also be retracted or corrected later, again from the dashboard, without touching the WordPress install itself.

What it looks like in practice

Visitor asks: "What are your hours on Sundays?"

Assistant\: "We're closed Sundays. Source: Hours page. Want me to help you find the next time we're open?"

Common questions

Do I need a developer to add this to WordPress?

The install is one line of code, with WordPress-specific steps in the docs — it does not require rebuilding the site.

Will this replace my WordPress site or theme?

No. It runs on the site as it already exists. No rebuild, no migration.

What if I don't want to touch my site's code at all?

AskMyBusiness can run at its own link instead, with a QR code pointing to it. Try the free private preview, built in under 24 hours, no card, at askmy.business.
