I'm getting my AI chat plugin into the WordPress directory. Here's what it's trying to fix

Hi r/Wordpress. I built KipDesk, an AI chat assistant for small business sites. The WordPress plugin is submitted to wordpress.org and waiting for review. Until it's approved, you can download it from the dashboard and upload it yourself.

The problem I'm trying to fix: most AI chatbots will make up an answer. On a plumber's or salon's site, that means quoting a price the owner never set. Visitors also leave at 9pm when nobody answers, and the enquiry is lost.

How it works:

- It reads your site and drafts your facts: services, prices, hours and areas. You approve each one, and it only answers from those, showing the source under each answer.

- When it doesn't know, it says so, shows a short form for the visitor's name and number, and emails you the lead.

- Visitors can ask for a real person at any time.

Two ways to add it:

- The plugin: install it, click "Connect to KipDesk", and you're done. No code. You can hide it on certain pages or switch it off from the plugin settings.

- The script: one line of code, if you'd rather not add another plugin. It works on any site, not just WordPress.

Either way, it loads after your page has finished, so it doesn't slow the site down.

I'd love feedback from people who build WordPress sites. What would make you put this on a client's site, and what would stop you? And is anything in the plugin settings missing that you'd expect?
