Description
Are you ignoring your visitors when you sleep?
Most website visitors leave because they can’t get answers fast enough. You can’t be online 24/7—but Oberon Chat can.
Oberon Chat isn’t just a “chatbot”; it is an intelligent employee that lives on your website. It answers questions, captures leads, and guides visitors to checkout while you sleep.
Unlike other plugins that lock you into expensive monthly subscriptions, Oberon Chat gives you total control. You connect directly to the world’s smartest AI models (OpenAI, Gemini, Claude) using your own API keys. No middleman fees. No data lock-in.

- Cut Support Costs: Let AI handle the repetitive questions so you can focus on growing your business.
- Total Privacy Control: Your data stays with you. We don’t proxy your conversations.
- Pay Less: Don’t pay a plugin subscription markup. Pay the AI providers directly for exactly what you use (often pennies per month).

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Oberon Chat is built for performance. Assets only load when required, ensuring your site speed scores remain high.
The plugin is free to download and use. You only pay the AI provider (like OpenAI) for the actual text generated, which is usually very affordable.
You can use the “System Prompt” area to paste specific instructions, business hours, or return policies that the AI will reference in every chat.
Not at all. If you can copy and paste an API key, you can use Oberon Chat. We have designed it to be “plug and play.”
