Grounded in your Knowledge Base
It answers from the articles you publish — and says “I don’t know” instead of making things up.
AI Chatbot for WordPress
An AI chatbot that answers from your content — and hands off to your team
Sohay adds an AI chat widget that answers your visitors from a Knowledge Base you control — powered by your OpenAI key, and grounded in your own articles so it doesn’t make things up. Every conversation lands in a built-in inbox your team can take over. Designed for WooCommerce, works on any WordPress site.

Features
Everything a support chatbot should be
Grounded answers, a real inbox, and store-aware tools. On your site, on your terms.
A real inbox for your team
Every chat is saved. Search, filter, assign to a teammate, and reply — all from your WordPress admin.
WooCommerce-ready
On stores, the chat can search your catalog, answer policy and FAQ questions, and help with the cart.
Your OpenAI key, your model
Bring your own OpenAI API key and pick the model. You pay OpenAI directly — no reseller markup.
Spend protection
Set daily token caps. Once hit, Sohay stops calling OpenAI for the day — no surprise bills.
Private by design
Conversations stay in your own database. GDPR export & erase built in. Your key is encrypted.
Fast & lightweight
An ~8 KB launcher loads on each page; the full chat only downloads when a visitor opens it.
Streaming answers
Replies stream in as they’re generated, so visitors aren’t left watching a spinner.
Built for developers
26 filters, 7 actions, 5 delegable capabilities, and an extensible tools framework.
For WooCommerce stores
Turn your store chat into a shopping assistant
When WooCommerce is active, Sohay can help visitors find products, understand your policies, and manage their cart — without leaving the conversation.
Search your catalog
Free-text product search with prices and availability, right in the chat.
Show the right product
Pull up a single product and pick the variant, size, or color.
Answer policy & FAQ questions
Returns, shipping, and terms — from your WooCommerce pages or KB articles tagged policy/faq.
Help with the cart
See what’s in the cart and add, change, or remove items — every change is reversible with Undo.
Requires WooCommerce 7.0+. On non-store sites, these tools simply don’t appear — the Knowledge Base chat works everywhere.

Predictable costs
You control what OpenAI can spend
