AI Chatbot for WooCommerce
The AI chatbot for WooCommerce that sells while you sleep
An AI chatbot for WooCommerce is a chat window that learns your store, then answers shoppers on its own.

No plugin, live in 10 minutes.
- Trained on your own store pages
- Answers delivery & returns questions
- Works with any WordPress theme
- From $14.50/mo · 5-day free trial
What can an AI chatbot for WooCommerce actually do?
Markleyo is conversational AI trained on your own store, not the open internet. It picks the right product for each shopper, answers the delivery and returns questions, keeps every chat in one inbox, and passes the hard ones to your team with the full story attached.
It picks products and walks shoppers to checkout.
Trained on your product pages, it suggests real items with the right size, colour and price, and puts the options and the Add to Cart button right inside the chat. Nobody has to dig through your shop page or filter menus to find the thing they already asked for.
It never drops a customer.
Every chat and every lead lands in one shared inbox, whether it came from your store, WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger or Telegram. Your team sees the name, the question and the history in one place, so nothing sits unanswered for three days.
It handles your store support.
Sizing, stock, delivery times, payment options, refunds and returns, all answered from your own product pages and policies. Roughly 9 out of 10 of these repeat questions get solved without anyone on your team touching them.
It learns your WooCommerce store by itself.
Paste your store URL and it trains on your product pages, prices, FAQs and policies in minutes. Add PDFs or spreadsheets on top. It answers from that library only, so it will not invent a discount or promise next-day delivery you do not offer.
It knows when to call a human.
Odd request, angry customer, a refund worth arguing about? It hands the chat to your team with the whole conversation attached, so your agent starts halfway through instead of asking the shopper to explain it all again.
Why do WooCommerce stores lose sales at 2am?
Shoppers ask about size, stock, delivery and returns in the last minute before they buy. If nobody answers right then, they close the tab and you never find out what they wanted.
Questions sit there unanswered
- Shoppers leave when size or delivery is unclear
- The same five questions fill your inbox every week
- Every visitor sees the same static product page
- Nobody helps the shopper who is nearly ready to buy
- You only sell while a human is online to reply
Every shopper gets a helper
- Instant answers pulled from your own product pages
- Explains delivery, payment and returns on its own
- Answers the last question before a cart is abandoned
- Captures every lead and walks buyers to checkout
- Replies 24/7 in each shopper’s own language
What changes the day
your AI chatbot goes live.
What WooCommerce merchants see once the AI answers first, in seconds, at any hour, in any language, without waking anybody up.
Averages across stores running Markleyo. Your own numbers depend on traffic, catalog size and how well the bot is trained.
What is the best AI chatbot for WooCommerce, and what does it cost?
First, a warning if you moved from Shopify: Gorgias AI Agent, Rep AI and Shopify Sidekick do not run on WooCommerce at all. Of the tools that do, Tidio has the biggest install base but bills Lyro separately, so a growing store realistically pays $68–$348 a month. WoowBot Pro is a native plugin you own outright. AI Engine is cheap at $79 a year but you supply your own AI key. Chatbase is $40–$500 and has no native store integration. Markleyo is the flat one: $29 a month, or $14.50 for your first term with code EARLY50. Prices checked in August 2026.
MarkleyoHow to add an AI chatbot to a WooCommerce store
Five steps, one snippet, about ten minutes. No plugin to install, no developer and nothing to redesign.
Create your chatbot and set the greeting
Sign up, name your bot, write the first line shoppers will see and choose who replies: AI, your team, or both. Markleyo connects to WooCommerce on every plan, so nothing here is locked behind a higher tier.
Make it look like your store
Drop in your logo, avatar and brand colour, pick which corner the bubble sits in, and switch on lead capture and the help centre. Shoppers should feel like they are still in your shop, not in someone else’s widget.
Let it learn your products and policies
Paste your store URL and add any PDFs, spreadsheets, FAQs or help articles you already have. Training takes minutes. After that it answers from your own store only, so its facts match what is on your product pages.
Paste one snippet into WordPress
Copy your embed code and paste it just before the closing </body> tag. The easy route is your theme’s footer scripts box, a Custom HTML block or a header-and-footer plugin, so you never touch a theme file. Save, and the bubble is live on every page, including product, cart and checkout. It loads on its own, so page speed stays where it was.
Switch on your other channels
Link WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger and Telegram so the same trained bot answers there too, with every chat landing in one shared inbox. No extra fee, on any plan.
AI chatbot for WooCommerce: your questions answered
What WooCommerce merchants ask us most often before they switch it on, including what the alternatives really cost.
Start freeHow do I add an AI chatbot to a WooCommerce store?
Five steps, about ten minutes. Create the chatbot in Markleyo, brand it with your logo and colour, train it on your store URL plus any PDFs or FAQs, then paste one snippet before the closing </body> tag. On WordPress that means your footer, a Custom HTML block or a header-and-footer plugin. No plugin to install and no theme files to edit.
What is the best AI chatbot for WooCommerce?
It depends on how you want to pay. Tidio has the biggest install base but Lyro is billed separately, so a growing store realistically pays $68–$348 a month. WoowBot Pro is a native plugin if you would rather own it than rent it. AI Engine is cheap but needs your own AI key. Markleyo is flat at $29, or $14.50 with code EARLY50.
Do I need a plugin to run an AI chatbot on WooCommerce?
No. Markleyo installs with one embed snippet, so there is no extra plugin to keep updated and nothing that can break when you change theme. It works with any WordPress theme, page builder or WooCommerce setup.
Will an AI chatbot slow my WooCommerce store down?
No. The widget loads separately from your page, from a fast CDN, so it never blocks your product images, prices or checkout. Your page speed and Core Web Vitals stay where they were, which matters because speed affects both rankings and conversions.
Does the chatbot read my WooCommerce products and prices?
It trains on your store pages, product descriptions, prices, delivery and returns policies, plus any PDFs or spreadsheets you upload. It answers from that library only, so it will not invent a discount, a variation you do not stock or a delivery promise you never made.
Can it handle WooCommerce customer support questions?
Yes. Sizing, stock, delivery times, payment options, refunds and returns are all answered from your own pages, in seconds, at any hour. Around 90% of these repeat questions get closed without your team stepping in, and the rest go to a human with the full chat attached.
Will my Shopify chatbot work if I move to WooCommerce?
Usually not. Gorgias AI Agent, Rep AI and Shopify Sidekick do not run on WooCommerce at all, so a store migrating from Shopify has to rebuild its chat stack. Markleyo connects to both, so the same bot and training follow you across.
Can it talk to shoppers in other languages?
Yes. It spots the language a shopper writes in and replies in that language, across 70+ languages, so you can sell in new countries without translating your whole store.
What happens when a shopper needs a real person?
It hands the chat to your team with the full conversation attached, so your agent picks up halfway through instead of asking the shopper to start again. Everything lands in one shared inbox with your WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger and Telegram chats.
