Add an AI chatbot to your WordPress site that answers customer questions in 50+ languages, 24/7.

== Description ==

Annona Bot is an AI customer support chatbot. Write your FAQs once in your language — the bot understands questions in 50+ languages and replies in the visitor's language.

**Setup takes about 10 minutes:**

1. Sign up and add your FAQs (or bulk-import from CSV/XLSX)
2. Install this plugin, enter your company slug and API key from the dashboard
3. The chat widget appears on your site

**Features:**

* **50+ languages** — Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, French, Hindi, RTL languages, and more
* **No hallucinations** — answers come only from your FAQs, never made up
* **Fast** — cached responses under 1 second, new queries in 1-3 seconds
* **Customizable** — match your brand colors, greeting, and position
* **Analytics** — see what customers ask, which questions go unanswered, and your resolution rate
* **Privacy-first** — visitor data is never used for model training

Also works with Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, and any site where you can add a script tag.

**Free trial** — no credit card required. See [annonabot.com/pricing](https://annonabot.com/pricing) for plans.

**Third-Party Service Disclosure**

This plugin relies on [Annona Bot](https://annonabot.com), an external service. When the plugin is active, it loads a JavaScript file from `annonabot.com` on your site's frontend pages. When a visitor interacts with the chat widget, their messages are sent to Annona Bot's servers for processing and a response is returned.

No visitor data is collected or transmitted until the visitor actively sends a message through the widget. Visitor data is never used for model training.

== Installation ==

1. Install and activate the plugin
2. Go to **Settings → Annona Bot**
3. Enter your company slug and API key from your [Annona Bot dashboard](https://annonabot.com/dashboard/settings/widget) (Settings → Widget)
4. Save — the widget is now live on your site

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do I need an Annona Bot account? =

Yes. Sign up for free at [annonabot.com](https://annonabot.com) — no credit card required.

= How long does setup take? =

About 10 minutes. Add your FAQs (or bulk-import from a spreadsheet), install the plugin, and you're live.

= Where do I find my company slug and API key? =

Log in to your Annona Bot dashboard, go to Settings → Widget. Your company slug and API key are shown there.

= Does it slow down my site? =

No. The widget script loads asynchronously and does not block page rendering.

= Can I customize how the widget looks? =

Yes. Colors, greeting message, position, and branding are all configured in your dashboard and apply automatically.

= What happens if the bot can't answer a question? =

It shows a fallback message and can offer to connect the visitor via email, phone, WhatsApp, or live chat — depending on your settings.

= Is my data safe? =

Yes. Each account is fully isolated. Visitor data is never used for model training. See our [privacy policy](https://annonabot.com/privacy) for details.

* Switch widget script attribute from `async` to `defer` for more predictable load order.
* Add Plugin URI header.

= 1.0.0 =
* Initial release
