A simple yet effective plug-in for GPT with great support

edurepub August 28, 2024

I have been using the Kognetiks chatbot for quite a few months now and have also been part of the Discord server. The chatbot is very simple to use and the support given by Stephen has been incredible for so many people across the board. If you are looking for a no-fuss plugin to work with ChatGPT for your site, I highly recommend this one, especially for the Knowledge Navigator function as well. It’s a real credit to have the developer so hands-on and helpful as well, and it’s been great to see Kognetiks chatbot grow as more people use it and more use cases are seen. Thank you Stephen for your continued work and support in making an awesome plugin!
