A chatbot that knows which vendor is selling what
Dokan stores vendors as WordPress users with the seller role, their store settings in wp_usermeta, and products as standard product posts owned by each vendor. SleekAI maps the active vendor for the current page (single store, single product, or vendor archive) and pulls store name, policies, shipping zones, and product catalog into the system message. A question on a product page answers from that specific vendor's data instead of the site-wide defaults.
For order and refund questions, SleekAI reads the standard WooCommerce orders layer (legacy posts or HPOS via wc_orders) and respects Dokan's vendor-order split, so a buyer asking about a sub-order gets the matching vendor's policy back. Display conditions scope a per-vendor bot to that vendor's store template, while a marketplace-wide bot can run on the homepage with no vendor context loaded.
Every conversation logs to WordPress with the model name, token usage, and the page URL, so marketplace operators can audit which vendors generate the most questions and tighten their store policies or product copy.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for Dokan
Vendor-aware context
The system message includes the current vendor's store name, policies, shipping zones, and product catalog so replies match that vendor instead of marketplace defaults.
Per-vendor display rules
Scope each bot to a vendor's store template, a vendor archive page, or the global homepage, with separate prompts for known buyers and guests.
Sub-order awareness
Dokan splits orders by vendor. SleekAI reads the matching sub-order so a buyer's question about a delayed package returns the correct vendor's fulfillment status.
Use cases
Where Dokan marketplaces use SleekAI
Pre-sales on vendor pages
Answer shipping, sizing, and stock questions from each vendor's data, on each vendor's product templates, without escalating every message to a human moderator.
Buyer order status
Logged-in buyers can ask about their open sub-orders. The bot reads the WC orders table, respects Dokan's split, and quotes the actual vendor's tracking field.
Cross-vendor discovery
A homepage bot can suggest other vendors in the same category when a product is out of stock, keeping the buyer on the marketplace instead of bouncing.
The bigger picture
Why marketplaces need vendor-aware AI
A Dokan marketplace is not one shop, it is many. Each vendor has different shipping zones, different return policies, different stock counts, and different language about their own products. A generic chatbot installed at the marketplace level either ignores all of that or invents a blended average that is wrong for every vendor.
Buyers on a product page do not care about the marketplace average. They care whether this specific vendor ships to their country, whether this specific item is in stock, and what this specific vendor will do if it arrives broken. Dokan already exposes everything needed to answer those questions through vendor usermeta, product authorship, vendor shipping zones, and the WooCommerce orders layer split by vendor.
SleekAI does the wiring through point-and-click data sources, multibot, and display conditions, so each vendor's page can answer from each vendor's data. The economic effect is real: vendor support load drops because the bot handles the common pre-sales loop, and conversion on individual vendor pages improves because the bot quotes accurate shipping and stock. For marketplace operators it also reduces moderation: fewer escalations from buyers who got a wrong answer about the wrong vendor.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Dokan
Yes. Dokan exposes the active vendor via WordPress query vars on store templates and via product authorship on single product pages. SleekAI reads that signal on every request and loads the matching vendor's store data, policies, and product set into the prompt. On the marketplace homepage where no single vendor is active, the bot falls back to a site-wide context with no per-vendor data exposed.
 Dokan splits a buyer's checkout into one sub-order per vendor, and each sub-order has its own status, shipping field, and tracking. SleekAI reads the relevant sub-order from the WooCommerce orders layer (legacy posts or HPOS) so a buyer asking about a slow package gets the correct vendor's fulfillment status, not a confused average.
 Yes. SleekAI's multibot mode runs multiple bots on one site with separate system messages, data sources, and display conditions. A common setup is one shared marketplace bot for the homepage and search, plus one per-vendor bot scoped by display condition to that vendor's store template. Vendors can have distinct tones without operators rebuilding each install.
 Yes. Dokan Pro stores additional vendor fields in the same usermeta layer and adds a vendor-side dashboard. SleekAI can read those fields like any other meta. A separate vendor-facing bot can run inside the dashboard URL pattern to help sellers with payout, listing, and KYC questions while the buyer-facing bot runs on storefront pages.
 Dokan stores shipping zones per vendor, and tax rules either inherit from WooCommerce or are vendor-overridden. SleekAI pulls the active vendor's shipping zone map and tax notes into the system message, so a quote-to-Toronto question returns that vendor's rate rather than a blended marketplace average.
 The bot can explain the vendor's refund policy and the marketplace's escalation path, and it can describe what action will be taken. It does not write refunds directly, since Dokan and WooCommerce both have approval flows. Wire the bot's escalation into a Dokan ticket or a WooCommerce email so the actual refund stays in the dashboard.
 Conversation logging stores the page URL alongside the message history. Operators can filter logs by URL pattern to see only one vendor's conversations, which is enough for QA without surfacing per-vendor logs to the vendors themselves. If you do want vendor-side log access, expose a custom view in the Dokan dashboard scoped by URL prefix.
 No, when the bot is configured correctly. SleekAI only loads the active vendor's context on a vendor page, and falls back to global marketplace context on neutral pages. The system message should not paste the full vendor list. For sub-order data, the bot only reads orders belonging to the logged-in user, so a customer cannot ask about another customer's sub-order.
