Your Website Just Got an AI Employee.

An AI chatbot for a website is a chat widget, powered by a large language model, that answers your visitors' questions in natural language using your own business content. Unlike old rule-based bots, it understands questions it has never seen before and replies conversationally, 24/7, so customers get instant, accurate answers without waiting for your team.

It answers the repetitive questions your team types out every day, works around the clock in any language, captures leads with the visitor's email or phone, opens support tickets when someone needs a person, and shows you what visitors actually ask. In practice that means fewer inbound tickets, faster replies, and enquiries captured at 2am instead of lost.

Create a bot in the SpideyChat dashboard, teach it your business (describe it in plain language, point the crawler at your website, or upload documents), then paste one line of code before your closing </body> tag. It works on WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Wix, Squarespace, and custom React or Next.js sites. No plugin, and your AI chatbot is live in minutes. You can do the whole thing on the free plan first.

Yes, that's the default way to teach one. Point the crawler at your site and SpideyChat reads your pages, extracts the content, and keeps it as part of the bot's knowledge, so answers come from what you already published. Re-crawl whenever your site changes and the bot updates with it.

There's no model training on your side. The Knowledge Learner gives you four ways to teach your website chatbot: describe your business in plain language, point it at your website and let the crawler do the rest, upload documents (PDF, DOCX, TXT, CSV, or Markdown), or add manual Q&A pairs. Everything is chunked and embedded into a private vector index, and the AI answers using only the most relevant passages.

By indexing the content you give them, not by memorising conversations. Your description, crawled pages, uploaded files, and Q&A pairs are split into passages and stored in a private index for that bot. When a visitor asks something, the bot retrieves the closest passages and answers from those. That is why the answers sound like your business rather than generic AI.

Neither. Teaching your bot and customizing the widget all happen in the dashboard. Installing it is a single copy-paste script tag (the same kind you'd use for any analytics tool), so anyone who can edit their website's footer can ship it.

General-purpose chatbots can. SpideyChat's answers only from the content you gave it and is instructed not to guess, which is what keeps it grounded. When it doesn't have the answer it says so rather than inventing one, and the visitor can open a support ticket from the same chat.

It tells the visitor it doesn't have that information instead of improvising, and offers the widget's “Report an issue” option, which files a numbered support ticket right inside the chat. On the Pro plan and above those tickets land in your dashboard inbox so your team can pick the conversation up.

Accuracy comes from the content, not the model. Every bot runs on a state-of-the-art large language model tuned for fast, high-volume support, and it answers from your own material, so it's as accurate as what you taught it. Thin or out-of-date content is the usual cause of a weak answer, and you can fix that by editing the knowledge base or re-crawling.

For the questions your content already answers (pricing, hours, policies, how-to, availability), yes, and those are the bulk of what most sites get asked. They're not a replacement for human judgement on complex or sensitive cases, which is why handoff and tickets matter: the bot clears the repetitive volume and routes the rest to you.

That's the main reason teams install one. Repeat questions (shipping, refunds, opening hours, “how do I…”) get answered instantly from your own content instead of becoming emails. What's left reaches you as a ticket with the conversation attached, so you start with context instead of a blank thread.

Your bot replies in the visitor's own language automatically, and one bot handles all of them. Because it runs on a multilingual language model, a single website chatbot can greet and answer visitors around the world in their native language, even when your knowledge base is written in just one language. There's nothing to configure.

Yes. Bots can collect visitor details like email and phone during a conversation (lead capture on Starter and above), so an after-hours question becomes a contactable lead instead of a closed tab. Captured leads appear in your dashboard alongside the conversation that produced them.

By asking the same few questions a good salesperson would ask (what they're looking for, budget or timeline, and how to reach them) inside a normal conversation. You get the visitor's answers with the full chat transcript, so you can tell a serious enquiry from a browser before you spend time on it.

Yes. Any visitor can open a numbered support ticket through the widget's “Report an issue” option, and on the Pro plan and above those tickets land in your dashboard inbox with the conversation attached. Both you and the visitor get an email, so nothing sits unnoticed.

It captures appointment and booking requests (what the visitor needs, preferred times, and their contact details) and routes them to your team to confirm. It doesn't write directly into your calendar, so you stay in control of what actually gets booked.

For most of the volume, yes. The bot answers instantly, 24/7, without anyone staffing the queue. What it doesn't do is judgement calls, so treat it as the first line: it handles the repetitive questions and hands the rest to you as a ticket rather than leaving someone waiting for an agent.

A contact form takes a message and gives nothing back; a chatbot answers on the spot, and still collects the visitor's details when it can't. For anything already covered by your content, the visitor gets their answer immediately instead of waiting a day for a reply, and you get fewer “just checking” emails.

Your data stays yours. Everything you use to teach a bot (your description, crawled pages, uploaded documents, and Q&A pairs) is stored privately in your account and indexed separately for each bot, so information never bleeds between bots. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and you can review every conversation and edit the knowledge base at any time.

Any website. Installation is a single <script> tag (or an iframe embed), so SpideyChat drops into WordPress, Shopify, WooCommerce, Webflow, Wix, Squarespace, Ghost, Framer, and custom React or Next.js sites alike, the same kind of snippet you'd paste for an analytics tool. No plugin, framework, or platform lock-in required.

There's a Free plan at $0 forever: one chatbot and 100 messages a month, no credit card required. Paid plans are Starter at $20/month (3 bots, 2,000 messages, website crawler, and lead capture), Pro at $59/month (10 bots, 9,000 messages, the support-ticket inbox, and branding removal), and a custom-priced Enterprise tier for unlimited bots and volume. Annual billing lowers the monthly rate, and you can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime.

Yes. SpideyChat's Free plan is free forever: one chatbot and 100 messages a month, no credit card required. It's the whole product at a smaller size, so you can train a bot and put it on your site before paying anything. Upgrade when you outgrow it, and downgrade or cancel anytime.

The one you can actually get live and keep current. For a small team that usually means no-code setup, a free tier to test with, one-line installation, and answers grounded in your own content, which is exactly what SpideyChat is built around. If you need deep CRM workflows and a dedicated admin, a heavier enterprise suite may suit you better.

Minutes. Create a bot, teach it your business (paste a description, point it at your website, or upload a few documents), customize the widget, then copy one line of code onto your site. There's nothing to install and no model to train yourself: your AI chatbot is live the moment you paste the snippet.
