Bring your own chatbot. You keep the backend; MangoApps is the front end — in Ask AI, a pop-up, a full-page tab, or a Home widget.

Overview

Register a customer-controlled chatbot and surface it inside MangoApps without rebuilding it. Embed it by URL (iframe) or connect it by authenticated API and let MangoApps proxy questions and stream answers back. Choose where it appears — routed inside the unified Ask AI box, as a site-wide pop-up bubble, a full-page tab, or a Home dashboard widget — as a setting, not a separate build. Ask AI routing sends the right questions to the right assistant (yours for its domain, native agents for everything else), disambiguating across multiple registered bots. API endpoint and keys live encrypted in Integrations, never exposed to app code, with optional HMAC request signing.

Route questions by topic so the right brain answers — your bot for its domain, native agents for everything else.

FAQ

No. In iframe mode we render your URL; in API mode we proxy the question and stream back the answer. Your backend owns the logic and data.

An authenticated HTTPS endpoint that accepts a JSON question and returns a JSON answer. Endpoint and keys are stored encrypted in Integrations.
