About this plugin
RawCooked is an AI assistant for your WordPress site. It reads your pages, posts and WooCommerce products, then answers your visitors’ questions and guides them to the right page or product — in their own language.
Bring your own AI provider:
- Google Gemini — has a free tier, perfect to start at zero cost
- Anthropic Claude
- OpenAI
- Ollama — run Llama 3 and other open models locally, no API key at all
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG):
- Indexes products (name, price, stock, description), pages and posts
- Semantic search with embeddings stored in your own database — no external vector service
- Falls back to keyword search when no embedding provider is configured
- Auto re-index on save + nightly refresh
WooCommerce tools:
- Live product search (real-time price and stock)
- Order status — strictly limited to the logged-in customer’s own orders
Three ways to display it:
- Floating bubble in the corner (round, soft or square style, your color)
- Side panel sliding from the screen edge
- Dedicated page via the [rafiq_chatbot] shortcode
Privacy by design:
- API calls are made server-side; your API key never reaches the browser
- The model can only see data of the visitor it is talking to
- No internal IDs, emails or other customers’ data in answers
- Per-IP rate limiting protects your API bill
External Services
This plugin connects to the AI provider you choose and configure in the settings. No data is sent anywhere until you enter an API key (or an Ollama URL) and enable the bot.
Depending on your choice, the plugin sends visitor chat messages, recent conversation context, and excerpts of your own site content (for indexing and retrieval) to:
- Google Gemini API (generativelanguage.googleapis.com) — Terms, Privacy
- Anthropic API (api.anthropic.com) — Terms, Privacy
- OpenAI API (api.openai.com) — Terms, Privacy
- Ollama — a server you host yourself (local or private); no data leaves your infrastructure.
API keys are stored in your WordPress database and used only server-side; they are never exposed to visitors’ browsers. No analytics or telemetry is sent to the plugin author.
