Step 1 — Sign up and get an API key (2 min)
Visit the contact page and submit a trial request. We'll send your API key within 24 hours. Free 30-day trial, all features unlocked.
Store the API key securely — it identifies all your calls.
Step 2 — Upload your knowledge base (2 min)
In the dashboard's Knowledge Base section, upload the documents the bot should know: FAQ, user guides, internal protocols. Supported formats: PDF, DOCX, HTML, Markdown.
The system handles chunking and embedding automatically. Typical time: 30 seconds to 5 minutes depending on volume. You can also upload via API — see openapi.json.
Step 3 — Add the script tag (30 sec)
Add this before </body> on every page where the bot should appear:
<div id="slatech-chatbot"
data-api-key="YOUR_API_KEY"
data-lang="auto"></div>
<script src="https://api.slatech.ai/embed.js"></script>
That's it. The widget loads asynchronously and doesn't block page rendering.
Step 4 — Customize appearance (optional, 1 min)
The widget supports these data-attributes on the div:
data-lang — auto / en / he / ru / ar
data-position — bottom-right / bottom-left
data-color — hex code for the primary color, e.g. #3b82f6
data-name — name displayed to the user
data-greeting — opening message (supports multi-language content)
Deeper customization (CSS, avatars, animations) lives in the dashboard.
Step 5 — Test and ship (30 sec)
Load your page. The bot appears in the bottom-right corner. Ask it questions from the knowledge base — it should answer with source citations.
If everything looks right, ship to production. No backend redeploy needed; the widget pulls configuration from api.slatech.ai.
Done. Your chatbot is live.
What comes next
The five minutes above ship the platform baseline. Typical next steps:
- Domain ontology — define entities and flows specific to your vertical. 2–4 weeks.
- External integrations — CRM, ticketing, telephony. 1–3 weeks per integration.
- WhatsApp / Telegram — same engine reachable through WABA + Bot API. 1 week.
- Custom actions — conversation steps that take action (create ticket, calculate price). Depends on complexity.
- GDPR / HIPAA compliance — switch to on-prem deployment with local LLM.
