Web Widget

The web widget is a chat bubble that appears on your website, letting visitors start a conversation with your AI agent instantly. It's the simplest way to deploy Sift.

In the dashboard sidebar, click Deploy.

You'll see a code snippet that looks like this:

<script src="https://api.sift.software/widget.js"
        data-org-id="YOUR_ORG_ID">
</script>

Add the snippet to your website's HTML, just before the closing </body> tag. This works on any website — WordPress, Squarespace, custom HTML, or any CMS.

<html>
  <body>
    <!-- Your website content -->
 
    <script src="https://api.sift.software/widget.js"
            data-org-id="YOUR_ORG_ID">
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Visit your website. You should see a chat bubble in the bottom-right corner. Click it to open the chat and test a conversation.

The widget appears in the bottom-right corner of the page by default. It's fixed-position, so it stays visible as visitors scroll.

Allowed Domains

You can restrict which domains the widget appears on. This prevents someone from copying your embed code and using it on their own site.

On the Deploy page, add your domain(s) to the Allowed Domains list:

youragency.com
www.youragency.com

If no domains are set, the widget works on any domain.

Customization

The widget inherits your agent's configuration:

Agent name — shown in the chat header
Greeting — the first message when a visitor opens the chat

How Conversations Work

Visitor clicks the chat bubble
The agent sends your configured greeting
The visitor types a message
Each message counts toward your monthly limit
The conversation is saved — the lead appears on your Leads page
If the lead qualifies, the agent may suggest property viewings

Note

Unlike the Playground, widget conversations are live — they count against your message limit and create real leads in your database.
