Getting Started
Create an AI assistant, give it knowledge, and embed it on your site.
ChatAI is an open-source platform to create an AI assistant, feed it your knowledge, test it, and embed it on a website. Built by NightZeros (NZ/001).
What you will build
- An assistant with instructions and a welcome message
- A knowledge base (uploads, FAQs, or a crawled website)
- Answers in the playground with citations and a debug trace
- An embeddable widget or React component on your site
- Optional API access with hashed keys and the TypeScript SDK
- Optional spoken conversations in the widget with Voice (preview)
Version 1.1 is a public preview: the /api/v1 contract and widget embed are stable, while Voice is still in preview. See the changelog.
Next steps
- Installation — local development, Docker, or deploy stubs
- Self-hosting — production Compose, Ollama, backups, env reference, production checklist
- Assistants / Knowledge — product setup, Purpose and scope
- Widget / React / Voice — embed
- API — REST and OpenAPI
API/SDK docs and the interactive OpenAPI explorer are available under API and SDK. Runnable embeds live under Examples.
