A website chatbot that also uses APIs

Hi! "Another chatbot for your content" you may ask? Not really! Let me explain. I have realized that there's an untapped potential for ChatGPT plugins: why leave them locked up in the OpenAI store? Let's embed them on websites or share using links! Let's make chatbots ~ do stuff ~, not just talk about what they know. That's how Chatwith was born. It is a chat widget, it scrapes your website, knowledge page, notion etc - but more importantly, it also understands your API. It can interact with that API on your or your visitors' behalf. Some use cases & ideas: - Shopify bot - ask it for order…

A website chatbot that also uses APIs launched on August 14, 2023 with 46 votes, #1,474 of 4,347 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.

In plain words

Chatwith is a website chatbot widget that combines web scraping and API integration to perform actions beyond conversation. It learns from a website's content, knowledge bases, and Notion pages, then can interact with connected APIs on behalf of users—enabling tasks like checking Shopify order status, retrieving real estate listings, collecting survey responses, or accessing airline boarding passes. Designed for businesses wanting to add functional chatbots that do more than answer questions, it transforms ChatGPT-like capabilities into interactive tools embedded directly on websites.

  • Outlines is a Python library that focuses on text generation with large language models. Brandon and I are not LLM experts and started the project a few months ago because we wanted to understand better how the generation process works.
