Yes. Most food banks store partner pantries as a custom post type with address, weekday hours, walk-in status, appointment requirements, and any documentation needed. SleekAI reads those fields directly through the data-source wizard and answers neighbor questions like "what is open in zip 30310 this afternoon" with a specific address, time, and walk-in note. The list updates the moment a partner edits their page, with no retraining or redeployment required on the chatbot side.

It cannot process payments directly, but it can answer questions about gift levels, recurring options, in-kind donation rules, and tax deductibility, then link to your existing donation form with the right amount and frequency preselected. The bot stays out of the payment flow, which is what your donation processor handles. Most food banks use SleekAI as the conversational layer in front of GiveWP, Donorbox, or Classy, with the existing checkout doing the heavy lifting.

Yes, and this is a high-value feature. Most food banks cannot accept expired goods, opened packages, or homemade items, and most cannot accept fresh meat from individuals without a temperature-controlled handoff. Putting the do-not-accept list in the system prompt as a hard rule makes the bot warn donors before they drive across town with a trunkload the warehouse will have to throw out. The list is editable through a standard WordPress page so the operations team can adjust it seasonally.

SleekAI is sold as a standalone plugin or as part of the All Access Pass. If you are a registered 501(c)(3) food bank, email us with proof of status and we will work something out. We have made arrangements for regional food banks before, and we are happy to do the same here. The API cost is paid directly to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter on your own key, so there is no per-message markup from us either way and the bill scales gracefully with holiday-season demand.

Yes, in general terms. The bot can explain that the food bank does not administer SNAP, EBT, WIC, or TANF directly, link to the relevant state portal, and describe the documents the visitor will typically need. It does not give specific eligibility determinations, which would require a benefits counselor. Most food banks pair the chatbot with a referral to a partner navigator or 211, and the system prompt is configured to make that referral automatic when assistance-program questions come up.

Inside your WordPress database. Nothing is shared with Sleek or any third party beyond the API calls your key authorizes. You decide retention, you decide who in the organization can see logs, and you can purge old conversations on a schedule. Each log records the model name, token usage, and page URL, which is useful for spotting which neighborhoods produce the most pantry-search questions, which is where new partner capacity is needed.

Yes. The system prompt and context adapt per language, and WPML or Polylang content is honored. A neighbor reading the Spanish version of your pantry-finder page gets Spanish answers drawn from Spanish content, with Spanish citations. Most food banks run English, Spanish, and one or two community-specific languages (Vietnamese, Haitian Creole, Somali, depending on region), and the language-matched answer raises the chance a neighbor actually walks into a partner pantry.

Display conditions let you switch the chatbot on or off by URL, date, post type, taxonomy term, user role, or logged-in state. During a weather closure you can swap the regular bot for a single-message banner pointing neighbors to a partner still open or to a 211 referral. Date-based rules avoid the need for a manual toggle on closure days, which matters when the closure announcement goes out at 5am the day of.
