The official plugin puts Bastian on your WordPress site without touching a line of code. Download it below, upload it to your site, and paste in your license key — the whole thing takes about two minutes.
Prefer a manual install? You can also download the plugin zip directly.
In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New Plugin and search for "Bastian Assistant" — look for the little blue face.
Click Install Now, then Activate. No downloads, no uploads — WordPress handles it, and future updates arrive automatically.

Bastian works anywhere you can paste a snippet of code. Install the web widget →
Install from your dashboard, grab a free key, and give your visitors someone to ask.
