Fabio Chatbot Lite for Shop, Blog & Forums

Most websites lose 80% of their visitors because they don’t find what they are looking for within 5 seconds. Fabio AI ChatBot Lite adds an AI chatbot that answers visitors’ questions strictly based on your website’s real content.

Fabio AI ChatBot Lite is a WordPress plugin that installs an AI-powered chatbot to help visitors quickly find accurate information on your website. Fabio AI ChatBot Lite answers exclusively from your WordPress, WooCommerce, and bbPress content. The chatbot never uses external knowledge or the public internet and comes with analytics features.

You choose which AI provider generates the answers: OpenAI, Google Gemini, Mistral AI, or Anthropic (Claude). Bring your own API key from any of these providers.
