Want it built, branded and tested on your content? A fixed $1,490, and you own everything.

List prices as of September 2026. Assumes about 2,660 input tokens per question plus conversation history, and 250 output tokens per answer. Prompt caching and shorter answers lower the cost further.

Everything included for $1,490

  • Trained on your content

    Up to 300 web pages and 50 documents (PDF, Word, Markdown), kept current with a weekly re-sync.

  • Answers with sources

    Every answer links to the page or document it came from, so visitors can check it and keep reading.

  • Your brand, any website

    A light chat widget in your colours, added with one script tag. Works on WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Next.js and more.

  • Guardrails

    It answers only from your content, says so when it does not know, resists prompt injection, and is rate limited.

  • Handoff and lead capture

    When it cannot help, it asks for the visitor’s email and sends you the question and the conversation.

  • Conversation insights

    A simple dashboard of what people ask and what the bot could not answer, so you know which content to add.

  • Your accounts, your costs

    It runs on your own AI and hosting accounts, with no per-message markup and no lock-in.

  • Tested before launch

    Checked against 30 real questions from your customers, and tuned until the answers are right.

  • 30 days of tuning

    Prompt and content adjustments for a month after launch, based on real conversations.

Not included

  • Voice, phone, WhatsApp or Messenger channels.
  • Taking actions in other systems, like bookings or order lookups. That is an add-on.
  • Fine-tuning a custom model. For answering from your content, retrieval works better and costs less.
  • Writing your help content from scratch.
  • The monthly AI and hosting bills, which you pay directly. Use the calculator to estimate them.

What I need from you

  • Links to the pages and documents it should learn from.
  • An account with Anthropic or OpenAI. I help you set it up, and you own the keys.
  • A way to add one script tag to your site, or a developer who can.
  • 20 to 30 real questions your customers ask, to test against.

How a chatbot trained on your content answers

Your content is indexed once. After that, every question takes five quick steps, and the answer streams back in a few seconds.

Indexing once, then after every content update

  1. Your content

    Pages, PDFs, help articles and policies.

  2. Split into passages

    Short, self-contained chunks with their source URL.

  3. Turned into embeddings

    Each passage becomes a vector that captures its meaning.

  4. Stored in an index

    A vector database in Postgres or on Cloudflare.

Answering every question, in a few seconds

  1. A visitor asks

    “Do you ship to Canada, and how long does it take?”

  2. Find the best passages

    The index returns the few passages closest in meaning.

  3. The model answers

    Only from those passages, inside guardrails.

  4. Answer with sources

    Streamed back in seconds, linking to your pages.

Not in your content? It says so instead of guessing, and offers to pass the question to you with the visitor’s email.

How an AI chatbot trained on your content works

A general chatbot answers from whatever it learned on the internet, which is why it confidently invents your prices and policies. A chatbot trained on your content works differently. It uses a technique called retrieval-augmented generation (RAG): before answering, it searches your own pages and documents for the passages that match the question, and the AI model writes its answer only from those passages.

That has three practical benefits. Answers are grounded in what you actually wrote. Each answer can link to its source. And when your content changes, the bot changes with it after the next sync, with no retraining and no model to maintain.

Custom AI chatbot vs a chatbot builder subscription

Builders are a good way to test the idea. Once a chatbot is part of how you support or sell, owning it usually works out cheaper within the first year, and you control exactly how it behaves.

What an AI chatbot costs to run each month

AI providers charge per token, roughly per word read and written. A typical question sends about 3,200 tokens to the model (your instructions, the matching passages, and the conversation so far) and gets about 250 tokens back.

ModelPrice per million tokens (in / out)4,000 questions a month
GPT-5.6 luna$0.20 / $0.75about $3
GPT-5 mini$0.25 / $2.00about $5
Claude Haiku 4.5$1 / $5about $17
Claude Sonnet 5$2 / $10about $35
List prices as of September 2026. Assumes about 3,200 tokens in and 250 out per question, four questions per conversation.

Indexing is close to free: embedding 300 pages with OpenAI’s text-embedding-3-small costs a few cents. The vector database fits in the free tiers of Supabase or Cloudflare for most small sites, and hosting the answer endpoint on Cloudflare Workers costs $0 to $5 a month. The calculator above does this maths for your traffic.

Keeping answers accurate and safe

  • Grounding. The model is instructed to answer only from the retrieved passages, and to say it does not know when they do not cover the question.
  • Citations. Every answer links to its sources, so a wrong answer is easy to spot and fix at the content level.
  • An evaluation set. Your real questions, with expected answers, run before launch and after every change, so quality does not quietly drift.
  • Prompt-injection resistance. Instructions hidden in a message or a page cannot override the bot’s rules or reveal its setup.
  • Rate limits and cost caps. Per-visitor limits and a monthly spend cap mean nobody can run up your bill.
  • Privacy. Anthropic and OpenAI do not train their models on API data by default, and conversation logs stay in your accounts.

What content makes a chatbot good

The bot can only be as good as what it reads. The best sources are the ones customers already rely on: FAQs, pricing and plan pages, shipping and refund policies, product pages, and help articles. Clear headings help retrieval find the right passage, and outdated pages are worth removing before indexing, because the bot will happily quote them.

The hidden benefit

The “could not answer” report is a free content roadmap. Every question the bot misses is a page or paragraph your site is missing, and adding it helps human visitors and search engines too.
