Built For Joomla Sites
Joomla sites tend to carry a lot of content (service pages, articles, policy documents, member areas) and visitors rarely read all of it before asking a question. FastBots crawls your Joomla site, learns what's on it, and answers visitor questions from that content. It works as an AI chatbot for everyday questions, and as an AI agent when you turn on live internet search or route captured leads into your other tools.
Providing AI Chatbots to Trusted Brands Around The World
Respuestas rápidas
A Joomla chatbot is an AI chat widget added to a Joomla-built website that answers visitor questions using your own site content. FastBots crawls your Joomla articles, category pages and menu items, then answers from that material instead of generic AI guesses.
You copy a small script from your FastBots dashboard and paste it just before the closing </head> tag in your active Joomla template's index.php file. Save the template, refresh your site, and the chat widget appears across every page.
Yes. The widget is a standard JavaScript snippet, so it works on Joomla 3, Joomla 4 and Joomla 5, and with any template that lets you edit index.php. You don't need a separate Joomla extension or plugin.
The widget script is lightweight and loads asynchronously, so it shouldn't affect your page load time in a noticeable way. It sits in the corner of the page and only fully activates when a visitor opens the chat.
¿Por qué FastBots?
Point FastBots at your Joomla domain and it crawls your articles, menu items and category pages. The bot answers from what's actually published, not generic AI knowledge.
Paste a single script tag before </head> in your template's index.php. No Joomla extension to install, update or break when you change templates.
Most Joomla sites belong to organisations, agencies or service businesses with set hours. The chatbot handles enquiries through evenings and weekends so nothing waits in a contact form.
When someone asks about pricing, a quote or a callback, the bot can collect their name, email and message. Leads are emailed to your team and stored in the dashboard.
Joomla sites get updated often. New articles, price changes, policy edits. Auto Retrain on Business plan and above re-crawls selected pages daily, weekly or monthly to keep the bot current.
On Business plan and above, Live Chat lets a team member claim the conversation and reply in real time. The visitor stays in the same chat. No starting over.
Turn on live internet search and the bot can answer beyond your trained content. Connect Zapier or Make and captured leads can flow into your CRM, spreadsheet or email list once the chat ends.
If your Joomla site serves multilingual audiences, the chatbot can respond in the visitor's language. Useful for international organisations, public-sector sites and tourism.
Situaciones reales
Answer questions about services, pricing brackets, locations and process before a visitor fills in a contact form. Push the qualified ones straight through to your team.
Council pages, charities and member organisations get repetitive questions about hours, policies, eligibility and forms. The chatbot answers from your published content.
Surface joining info, member benefits and renewal details to visitors browsing the public side of the site, then capture enquiries from anyone wanting to join.
Course details, intake dates, fees and entry requirements live across dozens of Joomla articles. The bot pulls the right answer instead of making the visitor hunt for it.
If your Joomla site lists local businesses or services, the chatbot can help visitors find a listing, filter by category and capture enquiries for featured advertisers.
Joomla agencies can deploy a branded chatbot per client site, then manage them centrally. Reseller plan adds full white-label and custom domains.
Joomla is often used to publish manuals and internal docs. Train a FastBots assistant on those pages so staff or customers can ask plain-English questions.
If you use Joomla's multilingual features, the chatbot can pick up the visitor's language and reply in kind, drawing on the content you've already translated.

Sound Like Something Your Joomla Site Could Use?
Plan gratuito, sin necesidad de tarjeta de crédito. Crea tu primer chatbot en cuestión de minutos.
Configuración
Give FastBots your Joomla domain or sitemap. It crawls your articles, menus and category pages so the bot answers from your real content.
Voz de la Cámara
Professional and helpful, plain English, no jargon. If the bot doesn't know an answer, offer to take the visitor's name and email so a consultant can follow up. Never guess at pricing or scope.
Tell the bot how to speak, what to say when it doesn't know an answer, and when to offer a contact form or escalate to a human.
Open your active Joomla template's index.php, paste the FastBots script just before </head>, and save. The chat widget appears across every page.
Comparación imparcial
If you run a Joomla site, your main alternatives are a static contact form, a third-party live chat widget pasted into your template, or a Joomla-specific chatbot extension. Here's how FastBots compares.

No. FastBots installs as a small JavaScript snippet that you paste into your active template's index.php file, just before the closing </head> tag. There's no extension to maintain, and the widget appears on every page that loads your template.
Yes. The embed is plain JavaScript, so it doesn't depend on a specific Joomla version. As long as you can edit your template's index.php and save changes, the chat widget will load.
You'll need to paste the script into the new template's index.php as well. It's a 30-second job, but worth checking after any template change so the chat widget keeps appearing on your site.
Yes. When you set up the bot, FastBots crawls the URL or sitemap you give it and pulls the page text into its knowledge base. From then on, the bot answers from that content. You can also add files, Q&A entries and manually written text to fill in anything that isn't published on the site.
Not directly during a conversation. The chatbot can collect appointment requests, contact details and preferred times inside the chat, then hand those off to your team or to a tool like a CRM through a Zapier or Make workflow once the chat ends. Use your existing booking page or payment link for the actual transaction.
You set the fallback. The bot can say it doesn't have that information and offer to take the visitor's name and email, or (on Business plan and above) offer to connect them to a real team member through Live Chat. Unanswered questions are logged so you can improve the bot's training later.
Our data handling is GDPR compliant and that uploaded data is not used to train OpenAI models through the API connection. You can also make a chatbot private, restrict it to specific domains and rate-limit messages. Always pair this with your own privacy notice covering chat use.
There's a free plan with 1 chatbot and 50 messages per month. No credit card needed. Paid plans start at $39/month for Essential. Live Chat, Auto Retrain and Email Replies are on the Business plan ($89/month) and above. See the pricing page for current details.
Yes. Agencies can run several chatbots from one account, and the Reseller plan adds full white-label, custom domain, custom 'Powered by' text and up to 5 brands. Each client site gets its own bot trained on its own content, with one script per site.
Build it on the free plan, paste one script into your template, and see how it handles real visitor questions before you pay anything.
