Citations On Every
Answer. No Hallucinations.

Every chunk retrieved becomes a clickable citation chip beneath the bot’s answer. When confidence drops below the threshold, the bot refuses politely instead of making something up. This is what every other WP AI plugin gets wrong — and what every site owner secretly fears.

  • Citation chips link back to the source post, page, or PDF
  • Refusal threshold tunable in Settings (default: cosine similarity < 0.65)
  • Grounding-first system prompt — bot says “I don’t know” when chunks don’t support an answer
  • Every chat logged with the exact chunks used — full audit trail
  • Voyage AI embeddings (primary) with OpenAI fallback for redundancy

Admin Power Tool

“Ask Your Content”
From Your WP Admin.

The visitor chat is half the plugin. The other half is the admin tool that turns your entire WordPress install into a queryable knowledge base for you. Find that one paragraph from a 2023 post in three seconds. Audit your content for gaps. Draft answers to support tickets without leaving wp-admin.

  • Full-text + semantic search across every post, page, and indexed CPT
  • Switch model per query — Haiku for speed, Sonnet for quality, Opus for nuance
  • Export query results to CSV or JSON for downstream workflows
  • Content audit mode — surface topics with thin or duplicate coverage
  • Reply drafting — paste a support ticket, get a sourced draft answer

What did we say about prompt caching in our launch posts?
Claude Sonnet 4.6 0.42s · 3 chunks
Three posts mention prompt caching: the launch announcement, the “Why Claude-First” blog, and the v1.1 internal-engine preview. Key claim: 90% read discount on cached input tokens with 80–95% hit rate on typical sessions.

Surface The Cache.
Save 90%.

Anthropic’s prompt caching gives you a 90% read discount on cached input tokens. Most plugins don’t pass the caching headers. We pass them, then surface the savings in a first-class dashboard so you see exactly what the cache saved you this month. Other plugins leave this money on the table.

  • Live spend tracker — per chat, per day, per month
  • Cache hit-rate gauge — typical sessions run 80–95%
  • Monthly cap with auto-throttle when you hit it — no surprise bills
  • Per-bot, per-CPT, per-tier cost breakdown for multi-bot setups
  • Forecast: project end-of-month spend from current trajectory

Index Everything

Posts, ACF, Pods,
PDFs, DOCX.

Most WP AI plugins index post titles and call it done. Smoak Knowledge crawls posts, pages, custom post types, ACF field groups, Pods, Meta Box, WooCommerce products — and ingests PDF and DOCX uploads as first-class content. Your entire site becomes searchable.

  • Auto-indexes on publish/update via WordPress save hooks
  • ACF, Pods & Meta Box field group support — configure per group
  • PDF upload with text extraction (multipage, OCR-ready)
  • DOCX upload with formatting preserved as Markdown
  • Markdown upload for static content & SOPs
  • WooCommerce product indexing (Studio Pro+)

MCP-Ready

Claude Desktop,
Cursor, Claude Code.

WordPress 6.9 shipped the Abilities API in core. The official WordPress/mcp-adapter went stable in February. Smoak Knowledge v1.1 (free auto-update for Pro customers) hooks into both: register a search_site_semantically ability, expose it via an MCP server endpoint with bearer-token auth, and your WordPress site becomes a queryable data source for any MCP client.

  • Self-hosted Claude Connector experience — for the 60M+ WP installs not on WordPress.com
  • Bearer-token auth, audit-logged on every MCP call
  • Multi-bot manager: unlimited bots with distinct scope, persona, model
  • Role-scoped content: public, private, role:editor, custom
  • Internal-only CPTs for SOPs, handbook, training, case studies, policies

The Difference

Other WP AI Plugins
vs Smoak Knowledge

AI Engine · MxChat · AI Power

  • × Hallucinations — no grounding-first system prompt
  • × No citation chips — bot answers feel unsourced
  • × No admin “Ask Your Content” tool — it’s visitor-only
  • × Prompt caching headers not passed — 10x more expensive
  • × No cost dashboard — bills come as a surprise
  • × Subscription-only ($150-300/year recurring)
  • × No MCP server — Claude Desktop can’t query the site

Site Owners & Devs
Love Smoak Knowledge

Built for the people who run content-heavy WordPress sites — here’s what early users say.

★★★★★
"The refusal logic alone is worth the Pro tier. My old chatbot would confidently invent return policies. This one says ‘I don’t know’ when it doesn’t know, and my support inbox is half what it was."
SP
Sarah Patel
Owner, BrightCloud Documentation
★★★★★
"The admin ‘Ask Your Content’ tool is the killer feature. I find a 2-year-old blog paragraph in three seconds. Replaces a half-hour of Google site: searches every week."
MK
Marcus King
Content Director, Helix Publishing
★★★★★
"My Anthropic bill went from $128 to $13. The cost dashboard makes the 90% prompt-cache discount real — you can watch it work."

James Liu
CTO, Pivot SaaS
★★★★★
"ACF field groups indexed out of the box, PDF uploads work, citation chips link back to source. This is what AI Engine should have been three years ago."

"Agency Pro + Ollama gave me a fully on-prem RAG stack for a healthcare client. Same plugin UI, zero data leaves their VPC. Sold the deal in one demo."
