The AI chatbot on a plumber's website: it answers from the price list, checks the area and the time, and books the visit.
SoftVoltAI Voice Agent is an AI chatbot with a built-in voice assistant for WordPress. It works like an AI receptionist and sales agent on every page of your site: visitors talk or type, it answers from your own business facts, recommends the right service or product, books the appointment, and sends you every lead by email, Telegram or n8n.
It does more than answer questions: it asks one question at a time, recommends what fits, collects the details you choose and books the job. When a visitor would rather speak to a person, it hands them over as a hot lead, with a note of what they wanted and what it already explained. Every booking and hand-off is saved in WordPress before any alert is sent, so a lead is kept even if an email or message fails.
The voice agent listens and speaks through the speech features already built into the visitor’s browser. There is no speech service to pay for. It understands and answers in 31 languages, from English to Bengali, Arabic, Spanish, Hindi and Japanese. Browsers without voice support simply get the text chat, so every visitor can use it.
For a plumber, a clinic, a salon or a consultant, it works like a virtual assistant at the front desk: it asks what the visitor needs, where and when, collects a phone number or email, confirms the details and saves the appointment request. You get it straight away, with the whole conversation.
In a WooCommerce store the agent searches your live products and shows them as cards with the price, stock and an Add to cart button. New products and price changes are used the moment you save them. Customers pay at your normal checkout.
Start on a free AI model: OpenRouter’s free models, Groq’s free plan or Google Gemini’s free tier. When the leads justify it, move to DeepSeek, OpenAI (GPT) or Anthropic Claude for sharper answers, or any OpenAI-compatible service, including a model you run yourself. Each provider comes with step-by-step instructions for getting a key and a Test connection button.
On WordPress 7.0 or later you can instead choose WordPress AI connection: the agent uses the AI provider you connected under Settings > Connectors, with no second key to paste.
[softvoltai_voice_agent]One screen shows whether the agent is live, new leads, messages per day, the latest leads, and a health check that points to anything that needs fixing: the AI connection, HTTPS for voice, alerts, placement and your shop. Press Talk to your agent to try it the way a visitor would.
The plugin connects to outside services only as described here.
Needed to write the agent’s replies. Each time a visitor sends a message (and when you press “Test connection”), the plugin sends the provider: the instructions built from your settings (your business details, services, questions and pages), the visitor’s message, the recent conversation, and the results of any search the agent makes of your published pages or products. Nothing is sent until you choose a provider and add its key.
Only if you turn on Telegram alerts. When a lead is saved (or you send a test), the alert text with the lead’s details is sent to api.telegram.org through your own bot. Terms, privacy.
Only if you turn on the webhook. When a lead is saved (or you send a test), the lead’s details are sent as JSON to the address you enter, with your secret header.
Only if you tick the weekly check or press “Check now” on the Advanced tab. The plugin downloads https://www.softvoltai.com/voice-agent/catalog.json, a list of suggested models and setup guides. No information about your site or its visitors is sent. Terms, privacy.
Voice uses the Web Speech API built into the visitor’s browser. The plugin sends no audio anywhere, but some browsers (for example Chrome) use their maker’s online speech service to turn speech into text.
