Sleek AI – Chat with AI Right from Your WordPress Dashboard

When the AI assistant lives in another tab

Anyone who works with WordPress every day tends to keep ChatGPT open in one tab, the website in another, and copy text from one to the other. The thread gets lost, conversations get mixed up, and every writer or editor ends up with their own account and their own history. Sleek AI puts that chat inside the WordPress dashboard, with an interface similar to ChatGPT, so talking to a model becomes part of the work and not a detour.

The idea behind it: on a site with several people, the problem is rarely the AI, but where the conversations happen. If they live outside the site, nobody can find them later. Here they stay saved and listed on the Chats page.

What the Sleek AI chat does when you really use it

• Several saved chats: you create as many conversations as you need, they save themselves and you switch between them from a sidebar. All of them appear on the Chats page inside the SleekAI section.
• Model switching mid-conversation: you can hand a hard question to a more capable model or compare answers from two models without starting over.
• Branches: from any earlier message you open a new chat with the history up to that point, and the original stays intact.
• Regenerate: if a reply doesn't convince you, you ask for another one from that message and the earlier context is kept.
• Images and PDFs as context: you can include files from the Media Library so the AI analyzes their content before replying.
• Mermaid diagrams: the chat generates diagrams with Mermaid syntax, such as flowcharts or sequence diagrams, and shows them already rendered.

Who Sleek AI fits, depending on your situation

If you manage a site with several editors

A shared chat inside the dashboard prevents each person from depending on an external account. The plugin lets an unlimited number of users talk to the AI, and everything goes through your API keys.

If you are a freelancer or work at an agency

It is handy to have an assistant nearby while you review a page, write a text or think through a project's structure. Uploading a screenshot or a client's PDF from the Media Library to ask for an analysis saves steps.

If you need to explain processes

Mermaid diagrams are useful for sketching workflows or sequences without leaving the chat.

Which providers it works with and how it connects

Sleek AI works with your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini or OpenRouter. You set up the keys once in the general SleekAI settings and the chat is ready, with no additional steps. The available models are those of the keys you have configured.

This means you pay for usage directly to the provider you choose, according to how much you and your team use it. If several users chat a lot, that cost grows, so it is worth watching it in the provider's dashboard.

It needs your own API keys

The plugin does not include AI models or credits: without a valid key from at least one provider, the chat does not respond. It is also not a chatbot for your visitors; this chat is for working from the admin dashboard. If you want a public assistant facing your customers, that is a different feature from the one covered here.
