How to Create an AI Chatbot for Your Website in 5 Minutes

Zero code, zero technical skills. Here's how to set up your first AI assistant with SmartChatAssistant.

If you're looking for a way to automatically answer customer questions, qualify leads and reduce your team's workload, an AI chatbot is the fastest and most cost-effective solution. With SmartChatAssistant you can create one in under 5 minutes, without writing a single line of code.

Step 1: Sign up for free

Go to app.smartchatassistant.com/register and create your account. No credit card required: the Free plan gives you 1 assistant, 25,000 credits per month and 50 messages per day.

Step 2: Create your assistant

From the dashboard, click "New Assistant". Name your bot, choose a tone of voice (professional, friendly, formal) and write a short description of what your business does. These details guide the AI in generating relevant responses.

Step 3: Train the AI with your data

This is where the magic happens. SmartChatAssistant offers four ways to feed knowledge to your assistant:

PDF Upload — Upload brochures, price lists, manuals. The AI analyzes them and extracts the information.
Web Crawling — Enter your website URL and the assistant will automatically scan the pages.
FAQs — Write manual question-answer pairs for exact control over specific content.
Free Text — Paste any text: policies, procedures, price lists.

Step 4: Customize the widget

Choose widget colors to match your brand, set a welcome message and configure suggested questions. You can even set different welcome messages for different URLs: for example, one message for the pricing page and a different one for the products page.

Step 5: Install on your website

Copy the JavaScript snippet provided and paste it before the </body> tag of your site. It's just two lines of code:

If your site has a restrictive Content Security Policy, you can use the iframe version that completely bypasses CSP limitations.

What your chatbot can do

Once active, your AI assistant can:

Answer questions 24/7 based on your knowledge base
Capture leads by collecting name, email and phone during conversations
Transfer the chat to a human operator when needed
Send webhook notifications to your CRM
Automatically speak the visitor's language

How much does it cost?

The Free plan is free forever. If you need more assistants, more credits or advanced features like lead capture and human handoff, the Pro (€29/mo) and Ultra (€99/mo) plans offer everything you need.
