AI chatbot for Presto Player videos: answer questions live
SleekAI reads pp_video_block posts, their settings postmeta, chapter timestamps, and CTA configuration, so viewers can ask about topics, jump to the right chapter, or get a transcript summary using your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key.

Videos sell, but only if viewers stay
Presto Player turns WordPress into a serious video host: chapters, CTAs, branding overlays, custom posters, and the pp_video_block custom post type to organize them. It's the right tool for course creators, agencies, and product teams who don't want to ship visitors to YouTube. But video is still a passive medium. A 22-minute course video answers most questions if you watch all 22 minutes. Most viewers don't. They scrub, give up, and leave with the wrong impression.
SleekAI sits next to the player and reads the pp_video_block post. It can see the video title, description, chapter markers, CTA configuration, and any transcript text you've added to postmeta. When a viewer asks "where do you show the export step?" the bot can answer with a chapter title and a timestamp instead of a generic deflection. When they ask "does this cover pricing?" the bot checks the chapter list and the transcript before saying yes or no.
Generic chatbots have no idea your page contains a video, let alone what's in it. They see the embed wrapper and stop. SleekAI maps the Presto data per page, so the bot on /lesson-3/ behaves differently from the bot on /lesson-7/, and both stay accurate to the exact video the visitor is watching. That accuracy is the difference between a chatbot that helps and one that invents.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for Presto Player
Chapter-aware deep links
Each pp_video_block can have chapter markers in its settings. SleekAI reads them and tells viewers exactly which chapter covers their question, with the timestamp. No more scrubbing the timeline hoping to land in the right minute.
Transcript-powered answers
If you've added a transcript as postmeta or attached a VTT file, the bot can search it before answering. That turns a 25-minute video into a knowledge base you can ask questions of, instead of a blob you have to watch end-to-end.
Course navigation
On multi-lesson sites, the bot can compare what's covered in lesson 3 vs lesson 6 and send the viewer to the right one. Useful for course creators whose support inbox fills up with which lesson covers X questions.
Use cases
Where this chatbot earns its keep
Online course platforms
Students asking which lesson covers a topic, where to find resources, or whether a specific tool is shown in the video they're currently watching.
Product demo pages
Prospects on a sales page asking what the demo covers, whether enterprise features are shown, and at what timestamp the integration example begins.
Webinar replays
Replay viewers asking which 5 minutes of an hour-long webinar covers the Q&A or the key chart. The bot points them to the chapter and saves them the scrub.
The bigger picture
Why videos with chatbots convert better
Video earns attention but rarely answers questions efficiently. A typical course lesson takes 15 to 25 minutes to deliver a single skill, and most students arrive with a specific question that the lesson buries under context. Presto Player's chapters help, but only if the viewer notices them.
Most don't until the lesson is half over. A chatbot bridges the gap. When a student types where do you show the export step, the right answer is chapter 4 at 13:42, not watch the whole video.
That single direct answer keeps the student on the page instead of leaving for YouTube where they'll find a competitor's content. For product demos and webinar replays, the same logic applies. Prospects want to know whether the video covers their use case before they commit 20 minutes.
A chatbot that has read the chapters and transcript can say yes, the integration with Salesforce is shown at minute 8 or no, this demo focuses on the consumer version, you'll want the enterprise overview instead. Both answers protect the prospect's time and your reputation. Video-only pages bleed attention because they can't talk back.
Video plus a chatbot that knows the video starts feeling like a person walking you through the material. That's a different experience entirely.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Presto Player
No. It reads the pp_video_block post and its postmeta, which contain titles, descriptions, chapter markers, and settings. The actual video file (MP4 on your server, Vimeo, YouTube embed, Bunny) doesn't need to be touched. SleekAI never streams or downloads the video.
 It reads whatever you've stored as structured data: chapters, descriptions, CTAs, transcript text. If you haven't added a transcript, the bot can still answer navigation and metadata questions but can't quote what was said. Adding a VTT transcript unlocks deeper answers.
 Not by default, but you can wire a small JS bridge. SleekAI exposes a JS API for sending events from the chat to the page. A short handler can call Presto's player API to seek to a chapter when the bot returns a timestamp.
 Not in core. SleekAI reads transcripts you provide. Generating a transcript from scratch is a separate task, usually handled by Presto Player Pro's auto-transcribe feature or a third-party service. Once the transcript exists as postmeta or VTT, SleekAI uses it.
 Yes. Playlists are collections of pp_video_block posts. Map the playlist context so the bot knows which video is currently active and which others are in the playlist. It can then answer questions like which video covers X across the whole playlist.
 Yes. SleekAI reads the pp_video_block post regardless of where the actual video file lives. Whether you embed from Vimeo, YouTube, Bunny, or self-host, the postmeta is the same. The bot's accuracy depends on metadata you've added, not the hosting provider.
 No. SleekAI only returns what the model generates in chat. Viewers don't see raw postmeta, transcripts, or your CTA configuration. The bot uses that data as context, then writes a natural-language reply. Internal data stays internal.
 It depends on your model choice and how much transcript context you include. For a 5-minute video with chapters and no transcript, a typical exchange uses 800 to 1500 input tokens. With a full 5000-word transcript, expect 6000 to 10000 input tokens. Use GPT-4o mini or Claude Haiku to keep costs low.
