WP Click to Chat – vs Akukita Chat with AI Translation

Turn your WordPress site into a global community. Got visitors from different countries who don’t share a common language? With Akukita Chat, an English speaker and a Spanish speaker hold a perfectly natural conversation — each one reads and writes in their own language. The translation happens in between, instantly and invisibly. No API keys, no monthly fees, no configuration. Activate the plugin, answer two questions in the setup wizard, and you have a multilingual chat running in under a minute. What’s new: direct messages, moderation and reactions are now free The 1.5 release moved three of the biggest add-on features into the free plugin. They are not trials or teasers — they are complete and yours to keep: ✉️ Direct messages — Private one-to-one conversations with the same automatic translation as the rooms. Conversation list, user search, unread badges and a slide-out sidebar you can open from any page. 🛡 Moderation — Ban or temporarily mute anyone, delete messages, straight from the chat with a right-click or from the admin panel. It works on guests too, which is where spam actually comes from. 😊 Emoji reactions — React to any message with 👍 ❤️ 😂 😮 😢 🔥. Guests included. Everything you get 🌍 70+ languages, zero configuration — Works out of the box with the free MyMemory engine. No registration, no credit card, no API key. 🧙 Guided setup in 60 seconds — A wizard runs the moment you activate: pick a translation engine and get a ready-to-use chat page created for you. 👥 Open the chat to anyone — Guest mode lets visitors join with just a display name and a language, no account needed. Spam protection (rate limiting, length limits and a honeypot) is always on. 💬 Multi-room chat — As many topic-based rooms as you want, each with its own shortcode. ✉️ Direct messages — Private translated conversations between registered users. 🛡 Moderation — Ban, mute and delete, for members and guests alike. 😊 Emoji reactions — Lightweight engagement on every message. ⚡ Real-time — Messages appear as they are sent, with no page reload. 🧠 3 translation engines — Free (MyMemory), high quality (DeepL), or state of the art (OpenAI GPT-4o-mini). Switch any time without losing history. 🚀 Smart caching — Each phrase is translated once and then served instantly to everyone, which saves your quota and your server. 📱 Looks right on mobile — Responsive dark-glass interface built for phones as much as desktops. 🇪🇺 GDPR-ready — Privacy text generated for you, configurable retention, and nothing leaves your database except the sentence being translated.
