Description
Turn your website content into answers, leads and sales opportunities
PingUp AI+ is an AI chatbot for WordPress and websites designed for customer support, lead generation, product discovery and conversational ecommerce.
It can be deployed in minutes, requires no coding and uses your company’s actual content to answer visitor questions.
Web pages, FAQs, PDF documents, product pages and technical content become a conversational knowledge base that customers can explore using natural language.
Unlike generic AI chatbots, PingUp AI+ uses a RAG-powered chatbot engine combining semantic and deterministic search to retrieve relevant information from customer-approved sources.
It can help visitors:
- find information quickly;
- discover products and services;
- compare available options;
- receive assistance around the clock;
- reach the most relevant page;
- continue the conversation through WhatsApp.
PingUp AI+ combines a straightforward no-code setup with advanced AI retrieval, ecommerce features, analytics and WhatsApp integrations.
Support. Recommend. Convert.
PingUp AI+ is more than a simple FAQ chatbot.
It can assist users throughout the customer journey:
Awareness – Introduce the company, services and key information.
Consideration – Explain features, requirements and available alternatives.
Decision – Recommend relevant products, services and content.
Conversion – Direct the user to a product page, contact request or WhatsApp conversation.
Support – Answer customer questions using approved company information.
How PingUp AI+ works
1. Install the plugin
Install and activate PingUp AI+ from your WordPress dashboard.
A secure connection links the website to your PingUp account without requiring a complex manual API configuration.
The WordPress plugin with secure SSO connection is currently in development and will be available soon.
A lightweight JavaScript snippet is available for other platforms and custom websites.
2. Connect your knowledge sources
Choose the content your AI chatbot should know:
- web pages and posts;
- individual URLs;
- XML sitemaps;
- PDF documents;
- custom text;
- FAQs;
- technical documentation;
- product pages;
- ecommerce catalogs.
There is no need to manually create hundreds of question-and-answer combinations.
PingUp AI+ crawls, processes and indexes the selected content.
3. Customize the chatbot
Configure the widget from the dashboard:
- colors;
- logo;
- position;
- light or dark mode;
- welcome messages;
- quick replies;
- automatic opening;
- typewriter effect;

No theme or code changes are required.
4. Publish the widget
Review your sources and chatbot preview, then publish it on the website.
PingUp AI+ can start answering questions and directing users to the most relevant information, product or communication channel.
5. Analyze customer conversations
Conversations generate analytics, intent classifications and content-gap insights.
Discover:
- what visitors are looking for;
- which products attract interest;
- which questions are asked most often;
- where website information is incomplete;
- which conversations show commercial potential.
Why choose PingUp AI+?

The initial setup is designed to take only a few minutes.
No-code configuration
No development, prompt engineering or vector-database experience is required.
The main settings are managed through a visual dashboard.
Answers based on your content
PingUp AI+ uses knowledge sources selected by your organization instead of relying exclusively on the general knowledge of an AI model.
This helps keep answers aligned with your actual products, services and documentation.
Accurate search across complex catalogs
Hybrid retrieval combines semantic understanding with exact matching.
The chatbot can understand natural-language requests while retaining precision for:
- product codes;
- models;
- technical names;
- locations;
- specifications;
- price ranges.
Built for lead generation and conversions
PingUp AI+ recognizes conversational intent and can direct visitors to:
- products;
- landing pages;
- forms;
- quotation requests;
- sales contacts;
- WhatsApp Business.
Automatically updated knowledge
Knowledge sources identified as stale can be automatically recrawled overnight.
This keeps the chatbot aligned with the latest published website content.
Insights for SEO, marketing and customer care
Visitor questions reveal needs, objections and missing information.
PingUp AI+ turns conversations into insights that can be used to:
- improve website pages and FAQs;
- optimize product content;
- plan new resources;
- refine campaigns and sales messaging;
- reduce repetitive support enquiries.
Core Features
RAG AI Chatbot Engine
PingUp AI+ uses Retrieval-Augmented Generation to search customer-approved knowledge sources before creating an answer.
This allows the chatbot to provide responses grounded in the company’s content.
Hybrid Search
PingUp AI+ combines:
Semantic search – Understands the meaning and intent behind a question.
Deterministic search – Finds exact words, codes, product names and specific matches.
This combination improves both conversational queries and technical searches.
Context-aware follow-up questions
PingUp AI+ keeps track of the active conversation.
For example, a visitor may ask:
“Which model is the most affordable?”
and then:
“Is it available in black?”
The chatbot understands that the second question refers to the product discussed previously.
PingUp AI+ internally rewrites follow-up queries with the necessary context before searching the knowledge base again.
Intent Detection
PingUp AI+ identifies the primary purpose of each conversation, including:
- information requests;
- support needs;
- solution comparison;
- commercial interest;
- purchase intent;
- contact requests;
- post-purchase support.
Detected intents are aggregated in the analytics dashboard.
Multi-format knowledge base
Supported sources include:
- URLs;
- sitemaps;
- web pages;
- blog posts;
- PDF files;
- custom text;
- FAQs;
- technical documentation;
- product pages.
Automatic website crawling
PingUp AI+ can crawl individual pages or complete website sections through an XML sitemap.
Sources requiring an update can be automatically recrawled overnight.
Automatic metadata extraction
When a page is imported, PingUp AI+ can also analyze:
- SEO titles;
- meta descriptions;
- Open Graph data;
- images;
- structured data;
- Schema.org markup;
- product metadata.
This information improves content interpretation and in-chat presentation.
Customizable chatbot widget

- custom branding;
- logo;
- colors;
- dark mode;
- widget position;
- welcome messages;
- placeholders;

- desktop and mobile settings.

The widget can also trigger configured Meta/Facebook Pixel events, subject to the website’s consent and privacy settings.
AI Chatbot for Ecommerce and WooCommerce
PingUp AI+ can turn an online catalog into a conversational commerce experience.
Visitors do not need to understand categories, filters or technical terminology.
They can simply explain what they need:
“I need an outdoor solution under €200.”
“Which product is best for a beginner?”
“Show me an available model with these features.”
PingUp AI+ analyzes the request, searches the indexed catalog and recommends relevant alternatives.
Product Advisor
The Product Advisor uses information from indexed product pages to recommend items based on:
- customer needs;
- requested features;
- category;
- price;
- availability;
- stated preferences;
- conversation context.
Product cards in chat
Search results can be displayed as product cards containing:
- image;
- product name;
- price;
- availability;
- rating;
- product-page link.
Product Preview
Product Preview shows how PingUp AI+ interprets a product page before it is presented to visitors.
It can be used to validate:
- image;
- price;
- availability;
- rating;
- structured product information.
Valid Schema.org structured data is required to generate complete product cards.
Checkout stays on your website
PingUp AI+ does not replace the ecommerce checkout and does not directly process payments.
The chatbot guides customers to the relevant product page or buying journey, which continues on the website.
WhatsApp Business and PingUp WhatsApp API
From website question to sales conversation

The CTA can include:

External services
This plugin relies on PingUp, a third-party hosted AI chat assistant service, to work.
Once you have connected your account, selected a bot and enabled the widget:
- Your site’s frontend loads the PingUp widget script from PingUp’s servers and displays the chat widget to your visitors.
- Messages that visitors type into the chat widget are sent to and processed by the PingUp service in order to generate replies.
- Your WordPress server communicates with the PingUp API (to list your bots, to manage the connection and to verify twice a day that the connection has not been revoked) using a revocable, site-specific access token stored in your WordPress options.
No data is sent to PingUp before you explicitly connect the plugin to your PingUp account, and nothing is loaded on your site’s frontend until you also select a bot.
Service provider: PingUp — Privacy Policy.
