Overview

SleekAI is the AI product of SleekWP. It adds a chat for administrators, chatbots for site visitors, alt text for media library images and the Agent, an assistant that works beside the WordPress screen you are on. Requests go to the AI providers with your own API keys, so you pay the providers directly for what you use.

Where to find it

In the suite, SleekAI is AI in the workspace sidebar. Its start screen lists your chats and your chatbots, each with a search field and a button to create a new one. Below it, the sidebar lists:

• Chats: conversations with any configured model.
• Chatbots: chatbots for visitors, shown as a floating widget or an embedded chat.
• Alt text: alt text, captions and descriptions for images, generated on demand or on upload.
• Settings: the default chat model, custom models and which user roles may use the Agent; provider API keys live in the shared AI settings.
• License: see Activating.

The standalone SleekAI plugin shows the same screens under SleekWP > AI in the WordPress admin menu.

Providers

SleekAI works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and OpenRouter, and with any endpoint that accepts OpenAI-style chat completion requests through a custom model. A provider’s models appear wherever you choose a model once its API key is stored.

SleekAI and the workspace assistant

The assistant that opens from the workspace header belongs to the workspace, not to SleekAI. It runs on the workspace’s own AI service and works with no SleekAI installed. Both read the same provider keys and custom models, so a key entered once serves the assistant, SleekAI and the AI features of every other SleekWP product.

When SleekAI is installed, the assistant can also run SleekAI’s WP-CLI commands for you, such as listing chatbots or generating alt text; it asks before running one that deletes data. Its conversations are kept apart from SleekAI’s chats.

Updating from the standalone plugin

The standalone SleekAI plugin updates in place to its next major release from any published version. That release requires PHP 8.2 and WordPress 6.5; a site below either keeps its current version. Chats, chatbots, keys and settings carry over. Stored API keys are sealed again with a key unique to the site, so rolling back to an earlier release means entering the keys again. After updating, purge page caches and CDNs so visitors receive the new chatbot widget.
