This guide takes you from a new account to a working chatbot on your website. No code is needed until the final step, and that step is one copy-paste.
1

Create your account

Sign up at sitegpt.ai. SiteGPT uses email links to sign in, so there is no password to manage. Every plan starts with a free trial. See plans and pricing for what each plan includes.
2

Create a chatbot

On the Chatbots page, select Create New Chatbot. Give it a name your team will recognize. You can change everything about it later.
3

Train it on your website

The fastest way to add knowledge is to point the chatbot at your website:
  1. In your chatbot’s sidebar, open Website Links.
  2. Choose Scrape Website and enter your site’s URL, or choose Add from Sitemap if you have a sitemap.xml.
  3. Start the import. Pages appear in Links List with live status badges: Trained, Pending, or Failed.
You do not need to wait on this screen. Training continues in the background, and the list updates in real time as pages finish.
You can also upload files, connect Notion or Google Drive, paste text, and write exact Q&A answers. See Add your content for every option.
4

Test it

Open Dashboard in your chatbot’s sidebar and use the chat preview to ask real questions your visitors would ask. Answers include source links so you can check where each answer came from.If an answer is wrong or missing, the fix is usually one of these:
  • Add the missing page or file to your content.
  • Add a Custom Response for that exact question. Custom responses take priority over generated answers.
  • Adjust the instructions to change tone or behavior.
5

Put it on your site

Open Installation in the sidebar and copy the script snippet into your site’s HTML. It looks like this:
Using WordPress? Install the official SiteGPT plugin instead and paste only your chatbot ID. Platform-specific steps for WordPress, Shopify, Wix, Squarespace, and Webflow are in Install on your website.
