FAQ

Can I use my own ChatGPT API keys?

• Yes! All Accounts will allow you to connect your OpenAI API endpoints. Basic and Advanced Accounts will also allow you to connect to custom API endpoints.

What if I don’t have AI API keys?

• No problem! You can use AI Tool Center’s managed API endpoints by upgrading to a Advanced Account — no extra setup needed. Or you can visit OpenAI and setup an account there to receive some paid API endpoints.

Is NimBot compatible with all WordPress themes?

• Yes! NimBot is designed to work seamlessly with any modern, properly coded WordPress theme.

Does NimBot slow down my site?

• No! NimBot is built lightweight with minimal resources — loading only when needed.

Code snippets are not styling properly!

• If you are using a Minify with your Page Cache you will need to remove wp-content/plugins/ai-tool-center/public/js/aitoce-public-nimbot-highlight.js from the Minify so it can be loaded normally.
