June 22, 2026Update

Massive Speedup of Chatbot Responses

Thanks to smart query processing restructuring and optimized caching systems, your virtual assistant now responds up to twice as fast. This increased responsiveness ensures a wait-free customer experience and promotes immediate purchase completions.

June 19, 2026Update

Search Assist Latency Optimization

Loading time during unsuccessful searches has been significantly reduced. By limiting intermediate reasoning steps and directly targeting semantic queries, the assistant now displays product suggestions and bounce recovery questions twice as fast.

Enhanced reliability of database syncing and persistence. The background request system now handles transfer cancellations and aborts robustly, preventing lockups or data loss during network fluctuations.

June 17, 2026Update

Accidental Modal Closure Protection

Improved comfort and editing experience in your admin dashboard. Knowledge base edit modals now prevent accidental closures when text selection drags and releases outside the modal window boundaries. Textarea inputs have also been enlarged for a more comfortable editing interface. Learn more about the knowledge base

Proactive Message De-duplication & Chat Home Entry

Optimized visual integration and customer conversion flow. The chatbot widget now suppresses redundant proactive bubble messages matching the collapsed launcher preview text. Clicking the launcher preview opens the home screen directly with page-specific suggestions, without forcing artificial message insertions.

Dynamic Mobile Auto-Fitting & Visual Clarity

Ensure perfect visibility on all viewports. The widget now dynamically adapts its width to the host's actual mobile screen size, subtracting safety margins to prevent any truncation of the closed pill layout, even on narrow mobile devices (320px to 360px wide). Discover widget styling

Layout Cleanliness & Proactive Message Deduplication

Visual ergonomics boost for the closed chatbot. The widget now intelligently filters proactive greetings to prevent displaying a redundant upper message bubble when the identical text is already shown in the closed search pill. Discover widget styling

Enhanced Resilience and Response Timeouts Control

We have strengthened the stability of our virtual assistant during peak traffic. Thanks to a dynamic response timeout control system for fetching product data, the chatbot now instantly triggers alternative assistance in case of network slowdowns, preventing any interruption in customer conversations. Discover our search engine

June 16, 2026Update

Major Responsiveness Optimization

Your virtual advisor has never been faster! We have deployed a series of background optimizations (strict AI timeout controls, increased resilience) guaranteeing immediate and fluid responses, even during high traffic. Learn more about performance

Direct and Engaging Proactive Assistance

It directly engages the conversation towards an alternative or targeted help to keep the buyer in the conversion funnel. Discover proactive assistance

June 15, 2026Update

GDPR Consent Gate (Active Privacy Guard)

The chat widget now features robust privacy management. By detecting the GDPR consent status early via the data-consent attribute, EcomBot automatically disables persistent local storage and cross-session cookies (_ecombot_session_id, _ecombot_visitor_id, etc.) if the user denies tracking. Learn more about security

Preventive Semantic Speculation

Major boost to response times! User query embeddings are now speculatively pre-calculated in the background while the LLM reasons. This tech optimization saves 190 to 320 ms when accessing the product catalog, delivering near-instant replies.

Latency Monitoring & Diagnostics

Increased transparency and observability. An automatic, detailed alert (slow_response) is now logged to diagnostics for any AI response taking over 8000 ms, pinpointing the exact request or tool step causing the slowdown.

June 14, 2026Update

Anti-Hallucination Guardrails for Promotional Offers

No more confusion for your shoppers! The virtual assistant's guidelines have been hardened to strictly prevent the hallucination of how discounts or promo codes are applied (e.g., auto-applied, deducted at checkout). The chatbot accurately presents the offer and its eligibility conditions without guessing the technical checkout process of your shop. Learn more about AI instructions

Structured Sales Rebound on Zero Results

Keep shoppers engaged even when they search for unavailable items! When no products match a search query, the chatbot now avoids vague descriptions or generic categories. It applies an empathetic rebound template presenting named, specific alternatives with clickable action buttons to keep customers in the purchase loop. Learn more about the semantic search engine

Parallelized and Faster AI Response Pipeline

Maximum responsiveness for your customers! The backend response preparation pipeline (relevance analysis, context retrieval, and module loading) has been fully parallelized. This under-the-hood performance upgrade cuts down pre-stream latency by 400 to 1000 ms, ensuring lightning-fast starts for every conversation.

June 13, 2026Update

Elite Sales Playbook Hardening (CRO Safety Net)

A more active and direct sales advisor! The virtual assistant now features a final CRO safety net in its prompt architecture, ensuring strict adherence to the sales posture (Feature-to-Benefit, social proof, and closing call-to-actions). Learn more about AI instructions

Conversational Cross-Selling

Suggest the right product at the right moment! Once a customer narrows down their choice, the chatbot naturally suggests a complementary accessory to maximize your average order value. Discover magic closing

Early Customer Frustration Detection

Never let your customers get impatient! The assistant now detects question reformulations at the very first sign of frustration, immediately pivoting to a broader search or a direct action without asking repetitive refinement questions. Discover conversation quality analysis

Constructive Ignorance Exit

Turn missing details into conversion opportunities! When an ultra-specific technical detail is missing from the database, the chatbot transparently admits it and immediately suggests a constructive alternative (product page link, similar option, or support escalations). Learn more about the knowledge base

June 12, 2026Update

Graceful Degradation & Support Escalation Widget

A resilient chat interface during connection drops! In the event of a network outage or temporary AI service unavailability, the assistant no longer displays raw technical errors. Instead, it presents a reassuring rose-tinted card offering retry options and a direct support escalation button to guide customers to your active contact channels. Discover support escalation

Empathetic Handoff for Order Queries

Warmer redirection responses for shipping and account inquiries! The virtual assistant's guidelines have been enhanced: when declining direct access to order tracking, the chatbot responds empathetically, highlighting your primary contact method and presenting direct, clickable buttons to reach your support team. Learn more about AI instructions

Proactive Invitation Deduplication

A clean, distraction-free shopping experience! A smart background filter now silently prevents duplicate proactive chatbot invites once the assistant has already replied to the customer in the active session.

Direct Catalog Processing & Commercial Alternative Suggestion

Faster query processing and higher customer engagement! Product list evaluation now runs on an ultra-fast direct path for specific search requests. Additionally, when a search yields no results, the chatbot avoids cold rejections and instead proactively proposes commercial alternatives and adjacent categories to keep the shopper in the purchase funnel. Discover semantic search

June 11, 2026Update

Native Contact Channels Handoff

Your chatbot now collaborates directly with your customer support team! The virtual assistant automatically detects the contact channels configured in your dashboard (Phone, WhatsApp, Email, or specific contact forms) and displays them as clickable action buttons whenever a customer requests human help. Customize your contact channels

Order Tracking Anti-Hallucination Policies

Securing customer trust is our priority! The assistant is strictly prohibited from fabricating order tracking status, shipping updates, or delivery dates. When asked about orders or accounts, EcomBot transparently directs customers to your official support channels. Furthermore, general knowledge statements now require verified technical parameters to prevent discrepancies. Learn more about AI instructions

Indisponibility Management & Alternative Sizes

Boost conversion rates even during out-of-stock scenarios! If a specific item is missing, the chatbot clearly states its unavailability before suggesting relevant fallback recommendations. If a requested size is unavailable but neighboring dimensions are in stock, they are presented as clickable buttons to help customers easily choose. Discover the semantic search engine

State Guards for Stream Protection

Flawless conversation flow! New reactive state guards prevent submitting new messages, clicking suggestion pills, or firing proactive prompts while a response stream is active. This eliminates duplicate requests and ensures smooth interaction under any network condition.

Advanced DevOps Diagnostics & Automated Support Pruning

Smarter background analytics and troubleshooting! Automated conversation analysis now utilizes a more advanced reasoning model to highlight checkout frictions. Additionally, the daily diagnostic system tracks error trends over the past 7 days grouped by project, and the support history is automatically sanitized of orphaned database calls.

June 10, 2026Update

Improved Dialog & Multi-Message Stability

We have enhanced the reliability of long or rapid exchanges with the virtual assistant. A new smart sanitization routine deduplicates messages and filters incomplete tool calls, preventing conversation locks and ensuring a seamless experience under all conditions.

Product Filter Price Fix

The product recommendation engine has been fixed to properly treat a price maximum of 0 as unlimited rather than filtering out all items, ensuring shoppers always see matching products regardless of the max price input.

Regression Testing Framework

To ensure continuous quality and performance, we deployed a comprehensive test suite of unit tests and AI-based behavioral evaluations, protecting our search relevance and chatbot sales posture from regressions during updates.

June 7, 2026Update

Automated Quality Analysis & AI Self-Improvement

Optimize your chatbot's performance without lifting a finger! EcomBot now features a daily automated analysis system that audits recent conversations to identify sales frictions (unaddressed objections), content hallucinations, misunderstandings, or customer frustrations. When improvement areas are detected, an actionable report and a ready-to-use corrective prompt are generated for our smart optimizer to update your virtual advisor's guidelines in one click. Learn more about smart optimization

June 6, 2026Update

Payment Provider Expert Advisor (Alma, PayPal, Klarna…)

Your chatbot no longer leaves customers guessing at the most critical step of checkout! When a shopper asks how a universal payment method works (Alma, PayPal, Klarna, Visa, Mastercard…), the assistant now responds with expert knowledge about the general service (e.g., Alma installment schedule, PayPal payment flow) while reminding them to verify exact terms during checkout. No more frustrating 'I don't know' answers about services your customers already trust. Learn more about AI instructions

Brand & Technology Expert Advisor (Samsung, Dyson, Induction…)

Turn your chatbot into a true product advisor! When a customer asks an educational question about a well-known brand (e.g., 'Is Samsung reliable?'), a common product type (e.g., 'What is an air fryer?'), or a technology (e.g., 'What's the difference between induction and ceramic?'), the AI responds with expert knowledge and then automatically presents matching products from your catalog. An optimal conversion funnel: education → discovery → purchase. Learn more about AI instructions

Focused Checkout Reassurance (Cart & Checkout)

Maximize conversion rates at the most critical step! On cart and checkout pages, the chatbot now focuses exclusively on reassurance (shipping, secure payment, returns) and never suggests browsing the catalog or discovering new products. Every interaction is designed to remove last-minute hesitations and drive the purchase to completion. Learn more about proactive help

Instant Product Search & Zero Hesitation

A chatbot that acts instead of asking permission! When a customer types a short keyword (e.g., 'Valet', 'Table', 'Lamp'), the assistant instantly searches your catalog instead of replying 'Would you like me to search?'. No more missed sales opportunities: every product query triggers immediate action. Discover the search engine

Enhanced Multi-Message Conversation Stability

Bulletproof reliability for extended shopping conversations! We eliminated a class of errors that could interrupt conversations when a customer sent multiple messages in quick succession or during unstable network conditions. Your chatbot now maintains a smooth, uninterrupted dialogue even under the most intensive usage scenarios.

June 5, 2026Update

Ultra-Precise Discount Code Extraction

Deliver a frictionless shopping checkout! The promo detection engine has been optimized to surgically extract actual discount codes while filtering out generic descriptive terms (like 'promotional'). Shoppers always receive the exact code to apply at checkout, eliminating confusion and boosting your purchase completion rates. Learn more about proactive help

Instant Conversational Engagement on Bubble Click

Maximize the impact of your proactive support! Now, when a visitor clicks on the proactive help bubble, the chat window opens and automatically submits the first suggested question (e.g., 'How do I apply my discount code?') after a brief 150ms delay. The customer is immediately guided toward completing their order with zero typing required, driving higher engagement and sales. Learn more about proactive help

June 4, 2026Update

Cart Savior: Exit-Intent Recovery & Promo Trigger

Recover lost sales at the most critical step of the buyer journey! Our virtual sales assistant now instantly detects exit intent (cursor moving outside the window) and prolonged inactivity (shortened to 20s) on cart and checkout pages. The widget automatically expands in a discreet floating layout to offer targeted discount codes and promotional offers based on the products in the customer's cart. Abandoned sessions are automatically flagged as abandoned carts in your inbox for direct recovery. Learn more about proactive help

June 4, 2026Update

Help Center & Public Documentation Revamp

Explore the new help center

Storage Immunity for Strict Privacy Browsers (SecurityError)

Enhanced widget stability and resilience across all merchant stores. We wrapped all browser storage access (sessionStorage and localStorage) inside the widget. Even if a shopper uses a strict privacy browser, blocks third-party cookies, or browses in private mode, the widget executes flawlessly without throwing SecurityErrors.

June 3, 2026Update

Multi-Visit Active Session Attribution

A major leap in ROI tracking accuracy! EcomBot now preserves your customers' active session ID using a secure first-party cookie. Even if the customer closes the chat or browses other pages (generating new passive sessions), the active session identifier is retained and transmitted by the e-commerce plugin during checkout. The EcomBot server uses this data to attribute the order to the original conversation with perfect precision and without the risk of false positives. Learn more about ROI Tracking

Expanded 30-Day Attribution Window

The conversation lookup for each incoming order now spans a 30-day window instead of the current session only. Whether your customer used your assistant a week ago or a month ago, EcomBot will find the original conversation and attribute the sale with precision. View ROI tracking

June 2, 2026Update

Background Ingestion Protection & Enhanced Update Performance

Your WooCommerce product updates are now managed through a secure background execution system.

Instant Search Assistant & Smart Triage

Lightning-fast and highly cost-effective customer navigation!

Discover how it works

High-Precision AI Recommendations on Search Results

Your chat assistant now adapts surgically to what is shown on screen!

Dynamic Application Modules System & Custom Integration Suite

Extend your virtual sales assistant's capabilities indefinitely! We developed a dynamic application module architecture that allows you to instantly connect your chatbot to third-party APIs and generate custom AI tools (e.g., live courier tracking, interactive product configurators) without altering the core codebase. These modules execute securely in the background with intelligent prompt injection and render custom interactive components directly inside your customers' chat interface. Discover how it works

Product Friction Diagnostics & AI Corrective Sales Instructions

Stop losing sales due to customer hesitation! EcomBot now analyzes real-time doubts and recurring objections raised by shoppers on your product sheets. From the Insights tab in your administration dashboard, visualize these real doubts and configure an AI corrective sales instruction in one click.

We introduced a high-performance optimization for conversations. No more slow page loads or connection timeouts. Read the conversations guide

Asynchronous KPIs & Progressive Dashboard Loading

Unprecedented visual responsiveness! Key analytics metrics (generated revenue, CSAT rate, conversation volume) on your main dashboard now load asynchronously and independently. Instead of waiting for all analytics to compute behind a blocking full-page skeleton, each KPI displays its own elegant loading pulse and appears instantly as soon as its data resolves. View dashboard metrics

Enriched Product Expertise

Turn your chatbot into a warmer, more helpful sales expert! For products with sparse technical documentation, the AI is now authorized to use its broad knowledge to positively describe standard product usage and benefits (e.g., confirming that an upholstery extractor deep cleans car seats, or that an Air Fryer bakes with circulating hot air). The AI maintains absolute defensive precision on critical details (dimensions, Volts, warranties) while maximizing customer engagement and conversion hooks. Learn more about AI instructions

Intelligent Semantic Search & Safety Net

Find the right product every time, even with typos! Your store's search engine now understands typing mistakes and vocabulary variations (like 'kitchen furniture' perfectly matching a kitchen helper). If a standard search returns zero results, the AI seamlessly takes over to recommend similar alternatives. Finally, questions about installment plans (e.g. 'pay in 12 months') are automatically understood to present your financing options. Discover semantic search

Fluid Layout & Flawless Widget Display

Enjoy a flawless presentation! We have perfected the layout of the chat widget to ensure a smooth rendering across all types of web browsers. Interactive elements now fit in beautifully, eliminating any layout shift or glitch.

Intelligent Spelling Corrector (Zero-Hit Search Rescue)

Never lose a sale to a typo again! EcomBot introduces a new intelligent spelling corrector for your popular search suggestions.

Intuitive Semantic Widget Restoration (Centered Hero)

An ultra-fluid user experience! When your customers switch to semantic search mode or click the back button, the search pill is automatically restored and expanded if it was previously collapsed. Your visitors instantly regain a fully engaging search assistant with zero navigation friction.

Staging Guard Anti-Saturation Protection (WooCommerce v1.6.1)

Decoupled Margins by Display Mode

Take complete control over your widget's visual integration! You can now configure independent bottom margin offsets for both the Classic Floating (FAB) mode and the Centered Search Pill mode. This prevents large custom offsets on the floating button (to avoid third-party widgets or carts) from making the centered search pill look asymmetric or pushed too high. Read the styling guide

Smart Viewport Obstacle Avoidance & SQL Search Bypass

Ultra-fluid navigation and lightning-fast loading! On mobile, EcomBot continuously scans the viewport of your shop and category pages to detect sticky filter buttons or floating elements and dynamically shifts itself upward (+12px margin) to avoid overlapping. Additionally, SQL product database lookups are bypassed on catalog listing pages, eliminating false-positive proactive help bubbles on unrelated products and speeding up widget initialization by 40%. Discover advanced layout ergonomics

May 29, 2026Update

Smart Funnel-Adaptive Widget

EcomBot now adapts 100% autonomously to the customer's shopping journey.

Learn more about Widget Styling

Instant Zero-Token Proactive Greetings (Zero-Token Proactivity)

Major FinOps optimization! We migrated product simplified name and grammatical gender extraction to WooCommerce catalog sync time. EcomBot pre-calculates and caches these details via AI, allowing proactive bubble greetings to load instantly at 0 runtime token cost (e.g., 'Need help with this coffee table?'). Furthermore, clicking the close (x) button stores session preferences to suppress proactive popups for the rest of the customer's session. Learn more

CRO Anti-Bounce & Anti-Spam Filters

Smarter, less intrusive proactive assistance! EcomBot introduces two advanced conversion filters: the widget only triggers proactively after at least 2 page views (page_views >= 2) to avoid interrupting new visitors, and automatically blocks triggers on products priced under €150 unless an active offer or custom sales instruction is configured. Read the docs

Premium Recommendations & Social Proof

Increase sales with irresistible social proof! The proactive suggestion card now displays golden rating stars (when available) and highlights a green BEST-SELLER badge for items with 10 or more sales.

Directly measure the impact of your widget layout choices! If your shop has recorded interactions on multiple display modes (floating Classic mode or centered Shopping Assistant mode) within the selected date range, new contextual filter pills will automatically appear on your Analytics dashboard.

Learn more

May 27, 2026Update

Accent-Insensitive Search

Instant search now perfectly handles accents and diacritics. Queries like 'tube carré' will instantly return 'TUBE CARRE' thanks to semantic normalization at index and query time. Discover the Semantic Search

Search Pill Dismiss (Dismiss to FAB)

Next-Generation Faster & More Performant AI Model

Optimized Central Pill Navigation (Centered Hero)

Enhanced navigation for the centered 'Shopping Assistant' layout. Clicking the back button in the chat interface now smoothly transitions the user back to the central pill hub selection instead of resetting the widget entirely.
