Visitors do not always use the same words you used on the page. They ask a\nquestion in everyday language, use a synonym, or type an acronym you spelled\nout somewhere else. Keyword search misses the match even when the answer is\nalready on your site.<\/p>\n\n
Achla AI Search turns that question into a short answer drawn from your\npublished content, with numbered links to the pages that support it. Visitors\ncan ask in their own language and receive the answer in that language.<\/p>\n\n
Achla answers questions about your content. It is not a live chat, helpdesk,\nor support inbox.<\/p>\n\n
Free plan: 100 searches a month and 100 indexed pages. No payment card.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n As with any AI-generated output, visitors should check the cited pages when\naccuracy matters.<\/p>\n\n Achla includes the parts that site owners would otherwise have to assemble\nand operate themselves:<\/p>\n\n Achla runs the crawling, indexing, and model calls as a managed service. You\ninstall the plugin, connect the site, and choose where the widget appears.<\/p>\n\n Achla works on a small site, but its advantage becomes clearer when useful\ninformation is spread across more pages than a visitor can browse:<\/p>\n\n Specialized terminology is a natural fit. A visitor can ask about protein\nfolding when a page discusses conformational dynamics, use a field-specific\nname for a method, or enter an acronym that is defined elsewhere on the site.\nAchla matches the question to the meaning of the indexed content rather than\nrequiring the same wording.<\/p>\n\n Bubble and Inline work alongside the WordPress search you already have.\nAttach lets you reuse the search field already present in your design.<\/p>\n\n Extra usage is purchased in blocks of searches rather than model tokens. That\nmakes usage easier to understand and budget.<\/p>\n\n This plugin requires the third-party Achla AI Search service at\n https:\/\/achlaai.com. The service crawls permitted public content, builds and\nmaintains the index, generates cited answers, provides widget configuration,\nand manages service billing.<\/p>\n\n Ownership connection.<\/strong> When an administrator clicks Connect, Resume, or\nReconnect, the plugin sends the site origin, WordPress callback URL, and a\nshort-lived ownership challenge to Achla. The secret verifier is sent only\nafter WordPress validates Achla's signed callback. WordPress then stores the\nsite binding, project identifier, public widget key, and a server-side\nmanagement credential.<\/p><\/li>\n Lifecycle status and health.<\/strong> While connected, WordPress makes paced,\nauthenticated requests to read project and index status. Diagnostics can\ncontain only the classified states Disconnect.<\/strong> An administrator disconnect, or uninstall best effort,\nrevokes the installation binding and management credential. It does not\ncancel an Achla subscription.<\/p><\/li>\n Signed widget release.<\/strong> WordPress periodically requests a signed control\nand manifest from Achla. The connector checks its signature, expiry,\ncompatibility, rollback state, immutable asset URL, and Subresource\nIntegrity value. The browser loads only a verified release.<\/p><\/li>\n Widget use.<\/strong> The verified widget uses Achla's widget configuration and\nsearch APIs. When a visitor asks a question, Achla receives the question,\nthe site's public widget key, the page origin, and the visitor's IP address\ncarried by the HTTPS request. These data are used for site binding, abuse\ncontrols, and returning an answer from the indexed public content.<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n \n6. Plugin code updates (self-hosted package only).<\/strong> The self-hosted package\n checks signed update metadata at\n https:\/\/achlaai.com\/api\/plugin\/releases\/wordpress and downloads a selected\n immutable ZIP from\n https:\/\/achlaai.com\/api\/plugin\/releases\/download\/wordpress\/.... The\n WordPress.org package does not contain this updater and receives code updates\n only through WordPress.org.\n<\/p>\n\n The plugin's three public WordPress REST routes are limited to a signed\nownership callback, a no-store release decision, and nonce-protected,\nsame-origin runtime diagnostics. All management routes require an\nadministrator capability and WordPress REST nonce.<\/p>\n\n The local bridge does not use cookies, browser storage, advertising\nidentifiers, iframes, or page-content telemetry. Review the service terms\nbefore enabling the widget:<\/p>\n\n The widget appears only once the connection is valid, the project is active,\nthe index is ready, placement is on, and the current signed release passes\nverification.<\/p>\n\n\n Plugins that use your own API key leave you responsible for the\nmodel-provider account, a secret stored in WordPress, and a separate bill that\nchanges with token use. They may also limit indexing to content stored as\nWordPress posts.<\/p>\n\n Achla runs the crawler, index, and model calls as a managed service. It can\nindex permitted public content across the site, including PDFs and pages that\nare not WordPress posts. There is no model-provider key, separate token bill,\nor vector database for you to operate.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Achla answers questions from your published content and links to the\npages it used. It does not open tickets, route conversations to a human agent,\nor manage a support inbox.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. It includes 100 searches a month and 100 indexed pages, with no payment\ncard. It is an ongoing plan rather than a trial. When the monthly searches\nare used, search stops until the allowance renews; the plan does not\nautomatically charge you for more.<\/p>\n\n Free projects that remain completely unused are eventually removed after an\nemail warning.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Achla runs the crawler, index, and model calls. There is no model-provider\nkey to obtain, paste into WordPress, secure, rotate, or refill.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Plans are measured in searches. Paid plans include a fixed allowance, and\nextra usage is purchased as blocks of searches rather than model tokens.<\/p><\/dd>\n Achla is designed to show an answer only when it can cite supporting pages\nfrom your indexed content. When the available pages do not provide enough\nsupport, it says so instead. AI-generated answers can still be imperfect, so\nvisitors should follow the source links when accuracy matters.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The answer comes back in the language of the question, including\nright-to-left languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. Your pages do not have to\nbe translated first.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes, on a paid plan sized for the site. The free plan indexes 100 pages and is\nintended for testing one section rather than covering an entire archive. Start\nwith the section visitors ask about most, review the answers, and expand if it\nworks for your content.<\/p><\/dd>\n This is one of the main reasons to use Achla. Questions are matched against\nthe meaning of indexed pages rather than exact wording, so alternative terms,\nspelled-out acronyms, and plain-language phrasing can reach the relevant\ncontent. Answers still use your indexed pages as their sources.<\/p><\/dd>\n Only if you choose Attach. Bubble and Inline work alongside your existing\nsearch. Attach connects Achla to the search field already on the site.<\/p><\/dd>\n Public pages that Achla is permitted to crawl, including supported documents\nsuch as PDFs. Content behind a login, and content excluded by robots rules,\nstays out.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. It does not store visitor questions, IP addresses, page content, cookies,\nor widget sessions in WordPress. It stores only this site's connection,\nlifecycle, placement, release, and diagnostic state.<\/p><\/dd>\n Open Settings > Achla AI Search. The status screen identifies the reason and\nthe next step. Common causes include ownership confirmation still being\nrequired, indexing not being complete, placement being switched off, or the\nsigned release needing to refresh.<\/p><\/dd>\n Attach accepts a narrow set of CSS selectors and tests them on the server\nbefore saving. If the element is missing at runtime, the widget falls back to\nBubble and records a warning. The warning clears once the field is found\nagain.<\/p><\/dd>\n The widget disappears and scheduled work stops. The connection is retained,\nso reactivating the plugin continues from the previous state. Deactivation\ndoes not disconnect the site or cancel a subscription.<\/p><\/dd>\n Uninstall attempts to disconnect the site, then removes this site's options,\ntemporary connection data, locks, and scheduled hooks. It does not cancel an\nAchla subscription; subscriptions are managed in the Achla dashboard.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nWhat visitors get<\/h4>\n\n
