Ansera.AI

Ansera Search replaces the default WordPress search with an intuitive AI powered answer engine based on your site’s existing content.
We all know that when website visitors can’t find the answers they’re looking for, they will leave in frustration never to return. Traditional website search just returns a list of links for visitors to sort through themselves while most chatbot solutions are annoying and require significant set up.
Ansera solves for these issues and more by providing your website visitors with human readable natural language search responses based only on your site’s content.
Unlike traditional website search tools, Ansera can be up and running in as little as 5 minutes by even the least technical users. Once you install Ansera on your site, all you have to do is select the pages you want to train it to answer on. Additionally, you can link to externally stored content like youtube and vimeo videos or presentations.
Ansera’s analytics let you see what answers your users are actually seeking and how to improve your content and conversion to better serve them.
Features: 
– Out of the box set up while also providing several visual customization options for more advanced users 
– Human readable natural language search results 
– Real-time sync that updates answers as site content is updated 
– User analytics for all search queries 
– Customizable guiding questions 
– Visitors can email results to themselves 
– Integrate a custom lead generation form into the Ansera widget
Bring conversational AI search to your site in minutes – no coding required!
