Add the HoverBot AI assistant to your WooCommerce or WordPress store in one step. No theme editing.

== Description ==

HoverBot is an AI assistant that answers shoppers' questions about your products, shipping and
returns from your own store content.

* Connect in one step: create a HoverBot account from inside WordPress and the chat goes live.
  The store domain is registered with HoverBot automatically.
* Already a HoverBot customer? Paste your Chatbot ID and Widget Key instead.
* Hide the chat on the cart or checkout page if you prefer.
* Disconnect removes the chat and revokes the plugin's access in one click.

The plugin adds one script to your storefront footer. It does not change theme files and reads
no order or customer data.

== External services ==

This plugin connects to HoverBot (https://www.hoverbot.ai), operated by HoverBot.

* When you click "Create account and connect", the email, name, password, assistant name, chosen
  template and brand color you enter, plus your store's domain, are sent to
  app.hoverbot.ai to create your account and chatbot. The password is not stored in WordPress.
* When connected, your store's domain is sent to app.hoverbot.ai so the chat is allowed on it.
* On every storefront page, visitors' browsers load the widget from cdn.hoverbot.ai and send
  their chat messages to app.hoverbot.ai.
