5-Minute Setup Guide

Here is the fastest way to go from zero to a working AI chatbot.

Create Your Account

Go to bestchatbot.io and click Get Started. Sign up with your Google account or email and password.

Create a Workspace

After signing in, create a new workspace. A workspace holds your knowledge base, settings, and integrations.
Each workspace is tied to one platform — either a Discord server or a web widget. Create separate workspaces if you need both.

Choose Your Platform

Pick how you want to deploy your chatbot:
  • Discord — add a bot to your Discord server
  • Web Widget — embed a chat widget on your website
For Discord, you’ll be asked to sign in with your Discord account to authorize the bot on your server. For the web widget, you’ll get a code snippet to paste on your site.

Add Knowledge

Give the bot something to learn from. You have three options:
  • Upload Documents: Drag and drop PDFs, DOCX, TXT, or MD files
  • Add URLs: Paste a website URL and let BestChatBot scrape the content
  • Let it learn from Discord: The bot picks up valuable moderator answers that add knowledge-base-related information. It applies intelligent filtering automatically, so only useful knowledge is captured.
After adding content, click Rebuild Knowledge Base so the bot can process your data.

Test and Go Live

Use the Retrieval Testing page in your dashboard to ask questions and check the bot’s answers before going live.Once you’re satisfied, the bot is already active. No extra step needed.
