Does Wix have a built-in AI chatbot?
How to add an AI chatbot to a Wix website
Install path | Tools in this guide | What Wix requires |
Wix App Market app | Wix Smart Chat, Chatway, Ultimo Bots | Select Add to Site on the app listing. Chatway's listing says a Premium site is required |
Wix custom code | SiteGPT, Tidio, Chatbase | A published site with a connected domain |
Path 1: install a chatbot app from the Wix App Market
- Open the app's listing in the Wix App Market.
- Select Add to Site and choose your site.
- Finish the setup in your Wix dashboard, then test the chat on the live site.
Path 2: paste the chatbot script into Wix custom code
- Publish your site and connect a domain. Wix lists both as requirements before you begin.
- Go to Settings in your site's dashboard.
- Select Custom Code in the Development & integrations section.
- Select + Add Custom Code and paste the chatbot's script.
- Name the code, then choose All pages or specific pages.
- Choose where to place the code. Chat widgets usually go in Body - end.
- Select Apply, then open your live site in a private browser window to test.
- Wix does not provide technical help for third-party code. The chatbot vendor does.
- Custom code is tied to a domain. If you assign a different domain to the site, Wix deletes the code snippets.
- In December 2025 Wix introduced new frontend security measures for custom code. Wix says some snippets that worked before may be blocked until the provider updates them.
How these Wix chatbots were ranked
- Wix fit. Is the tool made by Wix, listed in the Wix App Market, or installed through custom code?
- What the AI can learn. Does it read only the Wix site, or also files, drives, and other sources?
- Price and the unit you pay for. Credits, messages, AI responses, and resolved conversations are different units.
- Human handoff. Can a person take over the chat?
- Reviews. What do the Wix App Market and G2 show, and how many reviews sit behind each score?
