Add a live AI assistant to my website for $0 extra

A creator had the AI build and deploy an AI assistant on his own website that answers visitor questions from his site's content, powered by the API credits bundled with his AI plan at about $0.0006 per question. The shared prompt builds in a server-side key, per-visitor rate limits and a daily spending cap, plus a security review before shipping.

How it works

  1. Give the AI the shared prompt with his site content as the only source
  2. The AI proposes the simplest stack
  3. Builds the chatbot with server-side API key
  4. Adds rate limits, message caps and a daily spending cap
  5. Runs a security review
  6. Deploy live on his website

Why it’s worth knowing

A live, guarded customer-facing assistant runs on credits already bundled in his plan at a fraction of a cent per question.
