Mika AI Chat

Description

Mika is a lead conversion platform built for small businesses. It lives on your website around the clock, answers visitor questions using your actual business information, captures leads, and books appointments. No coding, no training, no ongoing work.

Unlike generic chatbots that need scripts and decision trees, Mika reads your website and learns your business automatically. It holds natural conversations, guides visitors toward action, and sends you their contact info the moment they are ready to connect.

Zero-Storage Privacy Mode

For businesses in privacy-sensitive industries where visitor data needs strict handling:

• No visitor data stored. Chat messages, leads, and appointments are never written to a database
• PII redacted before AI processing. Phone numbers, emails, SSNs, insurance IDs, and names are replaced with tokens before reaching the AI model
• Secure notifications. Lead details are encrypted (AES-256-GCM) into a time-limited link. PIN sent via separate SMS channel. Staff need both to view details.
• Industry-specific guardrails. Configurable rules to keep conversations focused on scheduling and general inquiries, not sensitive topics.
• Available on the Pro plan ($49.99/mo)

Built for healthcare practices, therapy and counseling, legal consultations, financial advisors, insurance agencies, addiction recovery, and any business where visitor privacy is non-negotiable.

What This Plugin Does

This plugin adds the Mika AI chat widget to your WordPress site by inserting a small JavaScript snippet in your site’s footer. The snippet loads the Mika widget from api.hiremika.com, which displays a floating chat button on your pages.

When visitors click the chat button, they can have a conversation with Mika, your AI assistant. Mika uses the information from your website to answer questions, capture contact details, and book appointments.

External service: This plugin connects to hiremika.com, a third-party AI chat service operated by Dcipher LLC. Visitor chat messages are sent to Mika’s servers for AI processing. No WordPress admin data, user accounts, or site configuration is transmitted. Review our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
