How to add the website chat widget

Drop a live-chat bubble on your site with one line of code — no Meta account, no approval process, and visitors chat with your AI instantly.

  1. 1

    Open the Website chat tab

    From Setup & status, click "Set up" next to Web chat.

  2. 2

    Create a new widget

    Click "New widget". Optionally restrict it to specific domains ("allowed origins") so it only loads on your own site.

  3. 3

    Copy the snippet

    Click "Copy" next to the one-line embed code. It looks like this:

  4. 4

    Paste it into your site

    Add the snippet just before the closing </body> tag on every page you want the widget to appear on. Most website builders (Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, a custom site's footer template) have a place for exactly this kind of custom script.

  5. 5

    Test it live

    Reload your site, click the chat bubble, and send yourself a message — it should reach your Talko AI inbox and get an AI reply.

The snippet is a single async script tag: <script src="https://app.thetalko.in/api/widget/{your-site-key}/loader.js" async></script> — nothing else to install, and it won't slow your page down since it loads asynchronously.

Common questions

Do I need a developer to install this?

For most site builders, no — paste the one line wherever the platform lets you add custom scripts or footer code. A fully custom-built site may need a developer for a minute, but it's a single line.

Does this need a Meta or Google account?

No — the website widget is entirely independent of WhatsApp, Instagram, or Google. It works standalone.

Can I limit which sites the widget works on?

Yes — set "allowed origins" when creating the widget so it only loads on domains you specify.
