Voice Assistant Dialog Navigation

Descrição

This plugin adds voice to your web experience. The voice forms and voice survey feature allows users to dictated all input fields on your page.
The virtual voice assistant allows web page visitors to ask questions, get answers and use their voice to navigate the web page.
In combination this plugin will convert your wordpress web page into a an immersive voice experience. The voice interface is most useful for mobile users.
To customize the virtual AI voice assistant the web page builder can customize the response to a pre defined number of questions the AI understands. For example a user might
want to know how to contact you. Rather than hunting for the “contact us” link on the web page the user can simply click the microphone
symbol and ask for it. For example — “How can I contact you.” or “I would like to get in touch” –> the AI will understand the request,
respond verbally with the customized answer and change the page to the customized URL.

By installing this plugin web page builder can add virtual voice assistant – navigation and basic AI dialogs to the Word Press page within minutes.

The plugin utilizes the speak2web API service to access AI services. speak2web offers up to 500 API calls for free.
In addition speak2web offers customized dialog options for web developers who want more than just the standard dialog.
You can find more about all the available options on our web page.

This plugin is super easy to use. It adds a virtual voice assistant to the Web page that can be used to navigate your web page by voice input. Simply go to the settings page, enable the questions you would like the assistant to answer, write your response phrase into the little box and hit save. I set mine up in less than 15 minutes. The plugin will understand the your voice input, give a verbal response and flip the page for you. The new version has a much better voice, doesn't sound robotic at all. Makes browsing the web page on mobile devices much easier.

What a great new plugin! I never thought adding voice to my website could be so fast and easy....and fun too! The set up as easy and fast. The most time-consuming part was trying to determine what I wanted the AI to say. Luckily, changing the dialog is really simple too.
