Chatvio – AI Webchat v1.3.1 — free WordPress plugin download. Key facts: updated September 29, 2026 · requires WordPress 6.0+ & PHP 7.4+.
Chatvio – AI Webchat adds a floating chat button to your WordPress site. Click it and visitors are instantly chatting with your team — over the web chat on your site or WhatsApp — with every conversation landing in one shared Tech Pad inbox with automations, campaigns and human handoffs.
- A real chat window — not just a link. Visitors type in a chat panel right on your page; replies arrive in your Tech Pad team inbox.
- 8 ready-made launcher icons — chat bubble, bubble with dots, WhatsApp logo, headset and more, or upload your own image/GIF.
- Any position — bottom-right, bottom-left, bottom-centre, side-centre, top corners or fully custom offsets. Separate position and size for desktop and mobile.
- Animations — pulse, bounce, shake or ring to draw attention.
- Display rules — show on the whole site or chosen pages only, hide on specific post types, desktop/mobile only, logged-in/guests only, time or scroll delay, and business-hours scheduling.
- WhatsApp quick-launch icon — when your Tech Pad number is connected, visitors get the green WhatsApp icon next to the chat button.
- AI-powered replies — the Tech Pad AI Copilot can answer visitors instantly from your dashboard, and hand off to a human any time.
- Free to start, no API keys — connect with just your admin email (the plugin creates your free Tech Pad workspace and chat key automatically), or paste a public key from your dashboard.
- Shortcode — drop an inline chat button anywhere with
[techpad_ai_chat]. - Google Analytics — optional dataLayer event on every click (off by default).
The chat window, greeting, pre-chat form, agent handoffs and automations are all managed from your Tech Pad dashboard — this plugin just puts the button on your site.
External services
This plugin connects your site to The Tech Pad (thetechpad.com), the messaging workspace that hosts the chat. The connection is required: the chat window, inbox, AI replies and agent handoffs are provided by the service.
- What the service is used for: the chat button loads a small widget script from The Tech Pad that opens the chat panel on your pages; conversations (web chat and, when a number is connected, WhatsApp) are delivered to your Tech Pad team inbox, where AI Copilot and human agents reply.
- What data is sent, and when:
- On connect: the admin email you entered, your site URL and site name, so the workspace and chat key can be created and this site allowed.
- When a visitor opens the chat and sends a message: their message text and the page they are on (sent to The Tech Pad so the AI can answer from your site content). Visitors never need an account.
- The widget script is loaded from
thetechpad.com/chat/widget.json pages where the button is shown.
- How it is protected: all traffic goes over HTTPS. The Tech Pad’s Terms of Service and Privacy Policy apply to this service.
