LoopHQ vs S2B AI Assistant – ChatBot, Chatbot Inspector, Image Generator

Your visitors get answers. You get booked appointments. LoopHQ puts an AI agent on your WordPress site, trained on your own pages, documents, and Q&A. It answers follow-up questions without losing the thread, and moves each conversation toward a next step: a booking, a captured lead, or a live person on your team. You can check that before you sign up. Enter your website address at loophq.dev and 60 seconds later you are talking to a trained agent that answers questions about your business. Your agent stays inside your content. It will not invent a service you don’t offer or quote a price you never published. When something isn’t covered, it says so and offers to take the visitor’s details. The same agent also answers Instagram DMs, Facebook Messenger, and SMS. Conversations and leads from every channel land in one dashboard. Why LoopHQ? Every answer comes from your own content. Add your website, upload documents, or write Q&A entries. Updates apply the moment you save them. Your agent asks the questions your team would ask. It qualifies the visitor, offers a time, captures the contact, or brings in your team. Visitors book on your real calendar. Connect Google Calendar and your agent offers open times, creates the event, and sends the invites. It won’t book over something you already have. Leads arrive scored and tagged. Each one carries a Hot, Warm, or Cold score, the service the visitor asked about, and the full conversation. Words like “leak” or “ASAP” push a lead to the top. One agent covers every channel. Website chat, Instagram DMs, Facebook Messenger, and SMS run on the same knowledge base and feed the same lead pipeline. Returning visitors don’t start over. When someone who chatted before comes back on the same channel, your agent picks up where they left off. You can take over any conversation. Step in from the dashboard, reply as yourself, and your agent resumes when you’re done. Your agent is bilingual. It detects whether a visitor is writing in English or Spanish and answers in that language, down to the widget’s own text. Installing takes no code. Paste your Project ID into the plugin settings and save. Everything else lives in your dashboard. The free plan runs the website agent with 100 message credits a month. Contact capture, Spanish, and analytics start on Starter. Live calendar booking, lead scoring, live takeover, and the Messenger, Instagram, and SMS channels are on Pro. Who is LoopHQ for? Any business where people ask questions before they book, buy, or call. LoopHQ ships industry-tuned behavior for home services, dental and medical practices, law and accounting firms, beauty studios and med spas, fitness studios, auto services, real estate, hospitality, childcare, pet services, SaaS, and e-commerce. Your agent asks what matters in your field. An HVAC visitor gets asked how urgent the problem is. A real estate visitor gets asked about area and timeline. For law firms, financial advisors, insurance agencies, and medical and dental practices, your agent runs with stricter behavior. It still answers the questions people ask most: who your team is, what you charge, how to book. Anything that needs professional judgment goes to a human, and the required disclaimers appear automatically. Pricing The WordPress plugin is free. LoopHQ offers a free plan with 100 message credits per month. Paid plans start at $39/month for more credits, advanced features, and multiple agents. View plans How it works Go to loophq.dev and enter your website address. In 60 seconds you have a working agent, trained on your pages and running side by side with your real site. Ask it the questions your customers ask, for as long as you want. Change its name, color, and industry while you watch. When you like what you see, claim it with your email and a 6-digit code. Your dashboard opens on the agent you tested, already trained. Open the Deploy tab, copy your Project ID, and paste it into this plugin. Claiming and deploying take about two minutes. From there you can add more content, connect your calendar and your other channels, and change how the agent looks and behaves. It all happens in your LoopHQ dashboard and applies instantly, with no plugin update needed. External Service This plugin relies on LoopHQ as a third-party service to provide AI agent functionality. A free LoopHQ account is required. What the plugin sends to LoopHQ: Your Project ID, which loads the correct agent configuration A deployment ping on plugin activation, which confirms your agent is live (contains only your Project ID and the source “wordpress”) What loads on your site: The LoopHQ widget script (https://loophq.dev/widget.js) is loaded asynchronously on every page for visitors to interact with your AI agent. Visitor messages are processed by LoopHQ’s AI service. Service links: LoopHQ Terms of Service LoopHQ Privacy Policy

Build AI chatbots and automation agents for WordPress without coding. The built-in Chatbot Inspector module helps locate pages containing S2B AI Assistant shortcodes as well as chatbots and shortcode placements from popular third-party chatbot plugins. It can also detect popular widget-based chatbots across your website. Generate images using the OpenAI API. Core Modules 🤖 Chatbots Develop multiple AI chatbots with different styles and behaviors on different pages of your website. You can choose models from different AI API providers: OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, xAI, Deepseek. Personalize the appearance of each chatbot, including colors, styles and text, as well as its position, window size and behavior by configuring the model, instructions, temperature, token limits and other options. OpenAI Responses API and Knowledge Files S2B AI Assistant supports the OpenAI Responses API, allowing you to create chatbots that can use your own documents as a knowledge source. Upload product documentation, manuals, FAQs, company information or other supported files and let the chatbot search this knowledge when answering visitors’ questions. Each chatbot can have multiple knowledge files and its own independent knowledge base. S2B AI Assistant automatically manages the OpenAI Vector Store and File Search integration, so you do not need to create or configure vector stores manually. The Responses API integration also supports conversation history and model-specific options such as reasoning effort and response verbosity. You can use a regular Responses API chatbot without knowledge files, or add files when you want the chatbot to answer questions using your own content. This provides a modern alternative to the deprecated OpenAI Assistants API for document-based chatbots. Deep Customization feature This allows you to create a unique view for each chatbot using custom CSS rules. To do this, you need to find the ‘Deep customization’ section on the “Chatbots” tab, add the unique HTML ID of the closed and opened chatbot. You can then add CSS rules to each closed and open view of any chatbot. Separate CSS rules can be applied to different chatbots. Chatbot view modifications Use shortcode attributes to change how chatbots are displayed. [s2baia_chatbot view=embedded] — display chatbot directly inside the page without a modal window [s2baia_chatbot view_mode=fullscreen1] — open chatbot in fullscreen mode automatically after page load [s2baia_chatbot view_mode=fullscreen1 hideclose=1] — fullscreen chatbot without close button Available in S2B AI Assistant Pro Restrict chatbot access by user Link chatbot access to WooCommerce products Learn more about restricting chatbot access 🔍 AI Chatbot Inspector Detect chatbots from supported WordPress chatbot plugins and find where they are used across your website.

You can configure generation options on the Image Generation tab. On the same tab you can generate and store new images using Dall-e-2 and Dall-e-3 models. 🧠 Content-Aware Chatbots (RAG) Build AI chatbots that answer questions using your website content. The plugin supports Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) using external vector databases, Embedding API, and Chat Completion API. Upload selected posts or pages into a vector database to enable semantic search across your website content. When visitors ask questions, the chatbot retrieves relevant content and sends it together with the user query to the AI model. This allows you to: Build website-aware AI chatbots Reduce Chat Completion API costs Limit answers only to your website content Improve response relevance using semantic search Learn more: * Content-aware chatbot * RAG setup guide 🧩 Additional Features Conversation logging Token usage statistics Fullscreen chatbot mode Embedded chatbot view allows you to update models directly from OpenAI and independently choose the model to use from OpenAI API platform https://platform.openai.com/docs/models .
