A WooCommerce help desk with order context built in

Run a store on WooCommerce? The plugin brings your ecommerce data into every conversation, with no extra setup.

AI agent chat recommending two products with prices and buy buttons

Sell while you support

The AI agent uses your product data to recommend items shoppers can act on, right in the chat. A sizing question becomes an order instead of an abandoned cart.

Cart contents in the conversation

See what's in the shopper's cart while the chat is happening, and step in before they leave.

Order data next to the reply

Order details appear alongside the conversation, so nobody asks a customer for an order number twice.

Sales reports for your store

With an ecommerce integration configured, All Sales and AI agent Sales reports count the orders placed during a conversation or within 30 days after it.

Live chat and every channel in one inbox

Email, live chat on your WordPress site, WhatsApp, Messenger, and SMS land in the same queue, so nothing gets lost between tools.

WhatsApp, Messenger, and SMS conversations flow into the same inbox as the chat on your site.

An AI agent trained on your WordPress content

The AI agent learns from your website and help center and resolves an average of 73% of routine questions before they ever become tickets, in the customer's language.

List of customer conversations resolved by the AI agent with resolution and CSAT metrics

Fewer tickets, same team

Where is my order. How do I reset my password. When will you reply. The AI agent resolves the repeat questions the second they arrive, so they never reach your queue.

AI agent handing a conversation to a human teammate with the history attached in HelpDesk

Hard cases go to a human

When a request calls for judgment, like a refund dispute, the AI agent passes the conversation to the right teammate with the history attached.

I can explore chats and discover what people are actually inquiring about. I can then shape the marketing content and campaigns based on that qualitative data.

What is a WordPress help desk plugin?

A WordPress help desk plugin connects your site to a ticketing system, so visitor messages become tickets your team or an AI agent can track and resolve from one inbox.

Some plugins keep everything inside the WordPress admin, which means support lives on your hosting, next to your themes and updates. A connected help desk works the other way around: the plugin handles the install, and the conversations run on a platform built for support, with rules, views, and reporting your site never has to carry.

Call it a helpdesk for WordPress or a WordPress support plugin. It's the same thing: a ticketing system connected to your site, with AI help desk features on top.

Does WordPress have a built-in help desk?

No. WordPress manages your pages, posts, and plugins, but nothing in it manages customer conversations. Site owners add a help desk through a plugin.

HelpDesk is built and operated by Text. The official plugin connects your WordPress site to tickets, live chat, and an AI agent in a few clicks. You can install AI Chatbot by Text straight from the WordPress Plugin Directory.

What to look for in a WordPress help desk plugin?

Plenty of plugins put a contact button on a website. Three things separate a real support ticket system from a widget.

An install that stays in wp-admin

You shouldn't paste code or call a developer. Look for a plugin you install, activate, and connect in a few clicks.

AI that acts, not just answers

An FAQ bot deflects. An AI agent resolves cases end to end and hands off to a human when the case calls for one.

One inbox for every channel

Chat, email, and messaging apps should land in the same queue, with order data attached when you sell online.

Get those three right and support stops eating your day. Your team only sees the tickets that need them, and your site visitors get answers the moment they ask.

Frequently asked questions

Does WordPress have a built-in help desk?

No. WordPress manages your site and content, not customer conversations. You add a help desk with a plugin that turns visitor messages into tickets and chats your team can track and resolve.

What should a WordPress help desk plugin include?

A support ticket system with rules and views, one inbox for email and chat, an AI agent that resolves cases on its own, and reporting. If you sell online, order data should appear inside conversations.

Can AI answer questions about my WordPress site?

Yes. The AI agent trains on your website content and answers visitor questions end to end. When a case needs a human, it hands the conversation to your team with full context.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. You get a free 14-day trial with no credit card required, and the AI agent is included.

How do I add a help desk to my WordPress site?

Install the official AI Chatbot by Text plugin from the WordPress Plugin Directory, activate it, and select Connect Text in your admin sidebar. Your ticketing system, chat widget, and AI agent connect in minutes.

Does it work with WooCommerce?

Yes. If your site runs on WooCommerce, the plugin automatically brings cart contents, product details, and order data into conversations, with no extra setup.

What are the requirements for the plugin?

WordPress 6.0 or higher and PHP 7.4 or higher. You can install the plugin from the directory search in your admin panel or upload the .zip from WordPress.org.
