SiteAssist – add a fully-branded AI assistant to any site in 5 min

1•rohiddev•6mo ago
Hi HN!

I’m Rohid, founder of SiteAssist (https://siteassist.io).

After months of dog-fooding on my own projects I just pushed the public launch and would love your feedback.

What is SiteAssist?

SiteAssist lets you drop a privacy-friendly AI assistant on any page—product, docs, admin dashboards, e-commerce—by adding one script tag. A lightning crawler indexes your pages (and soon PDFs / files / Notion / Google Drive), then the assistant answers only from that data. You can spin up multiple assistants with different “personalities”. Also, you can call the REST API(with OpenAPI Spec) directly and build your own UI.

What makes it powerful?

· RAG-powered accuracy – the model never hallucinates outside the indexed data.

· Fast crawler – parallelized scraping + focused deduping indexes ~5 k pages in <120 s.

· Customer Identification – you can identify each customer with your own app's ID, email, name and other attributes.

· JavaScript SDK – we have built a powerful js sdk to let you control pass messages between your website and the chat widget to control it programmatically.

· Actions (Coming Soon) – define safe server-side functions (SQL read, post to Slack, etc.) and the assistant will call them via tools.

· OpenAPI spec – everything you can do in the Chat Widget you can do via API. So if you want to have custom UI we have you covered.

· Brand control – colors, greetings, bubble vs inline, language, all configurable.

· No vendor lock-in – choose models from openai, google, anthropic etc. If you don't find your model or want to integrate your own models just reach us. We are happy to add more models.

If you build sites, sell products, or maintain big docs and want faster answers for users, give it a whirl and let me know where it breaks. Honest critiques > compliments.

Live demo & docs: https://siteassist.io

Happy to answer anything about the crawler, the RAG pipeline, infrastructure, future plans or pricing. Thanks for reading!

— Rohid
