Pricing & OpenAI Usage

No recurring fees for the plugin itself; just a one-time purchase. You do need an OpenAI API key, and your usage will be billed according to OpenAI’s pricing.

21. How much will using the OpenAI API cost me?

Because LiveSmart AI uses the “Bring Your Own Key” (BYOK) model, you only pay for what you use. By utilizing highly efficient models like gpt-4o-mini, the cost per conversation is extremely low – typically just a fraction of a cent. This makes it an incredibly cost-effective solution compared to traditional AI chatbots that charge high monthly subscription fees.

22. How do I update the plugin?

You’ll be notified of updates in your WP dashboard. Update as usual, and no conversations or settings will be lost.

• Proactive Sales Nudges: AI-triggered prompts to reduce cart abandonment.
• Video Avatar Integration: Partnering with solutions like HeyGen for a more human-like, seamless interaction.
• AI Business Insights: A dashboard for merchants to see ‘hidden’ customer intent.
• Possibility to add custom fields in the search.

---

 Data Privacy & Security (OpenAI)

---

24. Is my store and customer data safe when using OpenAI?

Yes. LiveSmart AI is designed with privacy in mind. Only the necessary product metadata (titles, descriptions, prices, and stock status) is sent to OpenAI to enable conversational search. Personal Identifiable Information (PII) is not transmitted unless specifically required for features like Order Tracking, and even then, it is processed securely. Furthermore, OpenAI’s API data is not used to train their global models, ensuring your business data remains your own. For more details check our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy pages.

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal data in connection with our WordPress/WooCommerce plugin that uses OpenAI function calling to provide AI-assisted inventory search and guided shopping. By installing or using the plugin, you agree to the practices described here. (last updated 9th of April, 2026)

What data we collect

We collect and process different types of data in relation to the plugin’s operation. The exact data collected depends on how you configure and use the plugin.

1. Information you provide

• Account and licensing data: admin email, site URL, license key, and related account information you provide to activate or manage the plugin.
• Support and communications: details you share when you contact our support team (e.g., copy of error messages, screenshots, or descriptions of issues).

2. Information we collect automatically

• Technical information about your environment: IP address, browser user agent, WordPress version, PHP version, server OS, and other diagnostic data.
• Usage data (optional): with your consent, we may collect aggregated usage statistics and feature usage to improve the plugin. You can opt out of telemetry in the plugin settings where available.

3. Data processed via the OpenAI API (the core of the AI functionality)

• When you use the plugin to perform AI-driven searches, data related to your store’s inventory and your search prompts is sent to OpenAI to generate responses or to drive function calls.
• Data categories may include: search text, product identifiers, titles, descriptions, SKUs, prices, stock status, and other product metadata that you choose to include in the request for processing.
• Important: the data you send to OpenAI may include information about your customers or your store data. We do not control the data that you submit to the API. You should review and configure your data inputs to minimize sensitive or personally identifiable information (PII) as applicable.
• If you use Voice or Image Search features, audio fragments or image files/URLs are transmitted to OpenAI for processing. We do not store these media files on our servers after the processing is complete.

How we use the data

• To operate and maintain the plugin (authentication, licensing, updates, and security).
• To provide AI-powered search results and function-calling features via OpenAI.
• To respond to support requests and troubleshoot issues.
• To improve the product (only with your opt-in consent for telemetry/usage analytics; otherwise, we do not use usage data for improvement).
• To comply with legal obligations and to enforce our terms.

Legal basis for processing (where applicable)

• Contractual necessity: processing required to provide the plugin and its features (e.g., license management, enabling AI features).
• Legitimate interests: improving product quality and security, provided interests do not override your rights.
• Consent: where you opt in to telemetry or analytics features, or to certain cookies.

Sharing and disclosure of data

• OpenAI: We transmit data that you request the plugin to process to OpenAI to perform AI functions and function calling. OpenAI’s processing and data handling policies apply to this data.
• Hosting and service providers: We may engage third-party service providers (hosting, payment processors for licenses, support tools) that process data on our behalf under appropriate data processing agreements.
• Legal compliance and safety: We may disclose data if required by law, or to protect our rights, property, or safety, or the rights/safety of users.
• No sale of personal data: We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

Data transfers and international transfers

• OpenAI data processing typically involves transfer to the United States and other jurisdictions where OpenAI operates. We rely on OpenAI’s data processing agreement and applicable data protection laws to address cross-border transfers (e.g., SCCs or other transfer mechanisms where required).
• We implement reasonable safeguards to protect data transferred outside your region, consistent with this policy and applicable law.

Data retention and deletion

• We retain license and basic administrative data for as long as your license is active or as required to provide support and comply with legal obligations.
• Diagnostic logs and usage data (if collected) are retained for a period of [e.g., 30–90 days] unless you opt out of telemetry, in which case they are not collected.
• Data sent to OpenAI for AI processing is governed by OpenAI’s data handling terms. We do not control retention of that data by OpenAI beyond what OpenAI provides in its policy. You may review OpenAI’s data usage terms for details.
• The conversation history and search logs are stored locally within your WordPress database. We do not have access to your store’s private chat history unless you explicitly share it with us for support purposes.

Security

• Data in transit is protected with TLS (HTTPS).
• Access to data is limited to authorized personnel and subcontractors who need it to provide services, under written agreements.
• We implement reasonable security measures (industry-standard controls, regular updates, and vulnerability management) to protect data on our systems.
• We do not guarantee absolute security; you should understand that no method of transmission over the internet or storage is 100% secure.

Your rights and choices

• Access and correction: you may request access to personal data we hold about you and request corrections.
  Deletion: you may request deletion of personal data, subject to applicable legal and contract requirements (e.g., license data and required business records).
• Data portability: you may request a copy of your data in a structured, commonly used format where applicable.
• Objection and restriction: you may object to processing or request restriction under certain circumstances.
• Automated decisions: our plugin’s processing is not intended to include decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects for you without human intervention.
• How to exercise rights: contact us at the details in section 2. We will respond in accordance with applicable data protection laws and within a timeframe specified by law.

Cookies and similar tracking technologies

If we use cookies or similar technologies for admin analytics or session management, we will provide a separate consent mechanism and a description of what is stored and why. You can disable non-essential tracking in your browser or plugin settings where available.

Children’s privacy

The plugin is not intended for use by children under the age of 16 (or the minimum age required by applicable law). We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to this privacy policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes and update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the plugin after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

Data Processing Agreement

If you sign up for the plugin under a commercial license, you may request a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) that describes the roles and responsibilities as a data processor and data controller, the security measures, breach notification, sub-processors, and data deletion/return at end of processing.
To request a DPA, contact us at [Your Privacy/Support Email].

Summary

LiveSmart AI Video offers the possibility to monetize incomes by enabling subscriptions for LiveSmart customers and using it as SaaS. Customers are organized in tenants, or semantic organizational structures with own configuration, branding, logo and user interface. One tenant can be any client of LiveSmart owner or different departments. For example LiveSmart can have several tenants – company1, company2, company3 – and each of them can have many users sharing own configuration, branding and payment plan. Monetization functionality is available for customers with Extended license.

Payment and subscription

Owner of LiveSmart can enable or disable subscriptions globally for the site and set different tenants to be paid. Also can set different payment plans with different time intervals and prices and check payment subscription history. Admin user can also set a usage package by minutes. Subscriptions can be paid by using the most popular payment gateways – PayPal, Stripe and Authorize.net. By default payment is set to test mode. Also payments are not recurring. Subscription is a one time payment and when is due to expire, tenant admin will receive a notification email. Body, title and notification days are configurable.

– how to set up a Stripe account. Check this tutorial on how to create publishable API keys for Stripe:

– how to set up an Authorize.net account. Check this article on how to obtain Login ID, Client ID and Transaction Key.

Tenants, organisers (hosts) and users

Owner of LiveSmart is the super administrator. He can add hosts, organized in tenants and can set a tenant admin. Tenant admin is responsible for payments and will receive notification emails when subscription is due to expire. Each tenant has their own chat and recording history and can set up their own users.

Demo

You can login to the demo dashboard to test the subscription functions. There are two accounts with enabled payment: admin tenant with paytestadmin/paytest and regular user paytest/paytest. Admin tenant can also check tenant recordings, chat history, manage other organisers and users of the tenant.

Here are the primary differences:

1. Purpose and Usage
HeyGen (Core): Designed for generating high-quality marketing videos, tutorials, and presentations. You input text, and the platform renders a video file for you to download or share.
LiveAvatar: Built for instant, two-way conversations. The avatar “listens” and responds in real-time with low latency, making it ideal for live customer support, virtual assistants, or AI-driven coaching.

2. Platform and Technology
Separate Environments: Although developed by the same team, they operate on different platforms. LiveAvatar is the official production version of what was previously “Interactive Avatar” in HeyGen Labs.
Architecture: LiveAvatar uses a new architecture optimized for WebRTC streaming to ensure smooth, responsive dialogue, whereas standard HeyGen is optimized for high-definition video rendering.

3. Subscription and Pricing
Independent Plans: A standard HeyGen subscription does not automatically include LiveAvatar access.
Cost Structure: LiveAvatar uses its own credit system. For example, the Essential Plan ($100/mo) provides credits that translate to roughly 500 to 1,000 minutes of live streaming, depending on the integration method. Standard HeyGen plans focus on “credits per minute of generated video”.

How do I get HeyGen paid API credits and more avatars?

Purchase credits here: https://labs.heygen.com/interactive-avatar (see “purchase API Credits”). Paid API plans start at $99/month (Pro).

How can I train avatars?

1. Simple: In the Dashboard, use “Avatar attitude” to define persona, behavior, and provide your domain knowledge.
2. Advanced: Add your functions in server/callTools.php and define them in Advanced Tools (function, description, parameters). Examples:
   • Weather: getCurrentWeather(location, unit)
   • Booking flow: getAvailableTimeslots(...) → bookTimeslot(email, name, timeslot)

   Docs: https://www.new-dev.com/videoaidoc/

   

3. OpenAI Assistants: Create an Assistant in OpenAI and assign it in Rooms → AI Avatar → Predefined Assistants.

Summary

LiveSmart Server Video offers the possibility to monetize incomes by enabling subscriptions for LiveSmart customers and using it as SaaS. Customers are organized in tenants, or semantic organizational structures with own configuration, branding, logo and user interface. One tenant can be any client of LiveSmart owner or different departments. For example LiveSmart can have several tenants – company1, company2, company3 – and each of them can have many users sharing own configuration, branding and payment plan. Monetization functionality is available for customers with Extended license.

Payment and subscription

Owner of LiveSmart can enable or disable subscriptions globally for the site and set different tenants to be paid. Also can set different payment plans with different time intervals and prices and check payment subscription history. Subscriptions can be paid by using the most popular payment gateways – PayPal, Stripe and Authorize.net. By default payment is set to test mode. Also payments are not recurring. Subscription is a one time payment and when is due to expire, tenant admin will receive a notification email. Body, title and notification days are configurable.

– how to set up a Stripe account. Check this tutorial on how to create publishable API keys for Stripe:

– how to set up an Authorize.net account. Check this article on how to obtain Login ID, Client ID and Transaction Key.

Branding

Each tenant can setup own branding for both administration and video panels – logo, look&feel, page title and wording. Each tenant can have own styling file and possibility to edit the tenant UI:

Tenants, organisers (hosts) and users

Owner of LiveSmart is the super administrator. He can add hosts, organized in tenants and can set a tenant admin. Tenant admin is responsible for payments and will receive notification emails when subscription is due to expire. Each tenant has their own chat and recording history and can set up their own users. Users in terms of LiveSmart are the non anonymous visitors. For example if a host wants to set up a room that is private, this can be done in two ways – by setting a global password for the room and all attendees need to know it in order to do video, or add multiple users with usernames and passwords.

Demo

You can login to the demo dashboard to test the subscription functions. There are two accounts with enabled payment: admin tenant with paytestadmin/paytest and regular user paytest/paytest. Admin tenant can also check tenant recordings, chat history, manage other organisers and users of the tenant.

[LiveSmart Team]

This is a demo page, where you can see how LiveSmart Server Video voice to text and translation module works. This functionality works only with desktop and mobile Chrome browsers.

Click this attendee link to copy it in the clipboard and send it to a new device so there is no echo. The attendee should see subtitles in his language while the agent is speaking. His voice on the other hand will be translated to the agent language.

WARNING! Please note that you have to allow your browser to access camera and/or microphone in order the video chat to work.

In order to reduce the echo if you are on the same machine, you can mute microphone or lower the volume. For optimal demo results it is good to use two different devices.

LiveSmart can be legally purchased only from CodeCanyon. If you have obtained the software from another source, you face the risk of it not working properly, or to have inclusions that may harm your system.

[LiveSmart Team]

Meeting Room

LiveSmart Server Video is a video chat between an organizer and one or more (theoretically unlimited number) attendees. The organizer role can be performed by tutor, doctor, support personnel, real estate agent, car reseller, registered user in a social media, etc
In order a call to be performed, both parties need to be online in one room. You can generate rooms for your customers in a couple of ways:
– Generate a room from the Dashboard page. You can add room ID, visitor name (if you are expecting someone to come), protect the room password if you want this room to be protected and organizer name;
– Make the link to be dynamically generated by your system;
When you enter a meeting the first time and if attendee names are not defined, you will be prompted to provide a name. After that you need to grant permissions for camera and/or microphone.

When the meeting starts attendees can chat, toggle video or audio, draw on the whiteboard, transfer a file, do a screen share or take a snapshot* of the other party video screen. Also the organizer can perform attendee management like mute, block, respond to raised hands.

From the inline meeting settings an organizer can choose video/input and output devices. From the second tab, you can go full screen (the whole window), raise a hand, manage the participants and lock the room. Third tab is for recording. Here you can start/stop or pause a recording. Next is the option to start broadcasting a video from YouTube. Last one is a Share button, from where you can scan a QR code, copy the URL of the meeting or send it directly to an email.

From the inline video session window an organizer can mute an attendee. Also all the participants can take snapshots or go fullscreen.

Screen Sharing

You are able to share the whole screen, separate application or a browser tab if your browser is Chrome 72+, Firefox 52+ or MS Edge 17+.

Whiteboard

Whiteboard feature allows you to show your visitors some drawings, diagrams, images or links. It is enabled by default . You can disable it from the dashboard.
It can be started from chat screen by clicking on the Whiteboard icon. You can do this while in call.

Recording

You can record your whole screen from the Settings button -> Recordings

Broadcast

There is one or more broadcaster and many viewers. This is a perfect tool for online lecturers and enterprises.

From the dashboard you can start a meeting and check “Attendees will start audio and video disabled” in the Room management section.

Dashboard panel

The admin panel has a backend information about the organizers, rooms, locales and configuration.

Check here with demo/demo.

In the Page management you are able to generate custom room. You can specify a time period, duration of the meeting, visitor name, host name, room ID and if the room should be password protected. The save button is saving each generated room in a DB if available.

Private Access

You can set password protection for your meeting in two ways:
– when creating or saving a meeting room set a global password in the Room form;
– from the configuration section in the Dashboard enable Server Side -> Login Form. This will enable users to enter with their email and password and you need to define them in Users section of the Dashboard.

Localization

From the Dashboard panel you can assign and change as many as you need localizations.

Go to Locales section and in the field type the name of the locale. It can be any string helping your to identify it later – es_ES, Spanish, SP. Choose the Spanish locale from the list and fill in relevant values.

Now you need to assign a new configuration with the new locale. Go to Configuration section and add a new configuration with some name to help you identify this is for the new locale. Of course you can assign the new locale to any existing configuration.

Then from the Room management you can edit, add new or start directly a new room by assigning the configuration with the Spanish locale to it.

Speech-to-text, Text-to-speech and Translate

LSV offers the possibility to transcribe voice to text, or the speech recognition module. It can be enabled from Configuration section of your Dashboard. The default language of the speech recognition is English. All the list of available languages can be seen here.
In addition to the speech recognition, there is a possibility to translate the transcribed text. You need to have a Google API key. In this tutorial is described how to get it.
After you get the key, it needs to be set in the Configuration section in the Dashboard.

While typing a chat message your attendee will receive voice. This functionality can be combined with the translation module. For example, you speak in Spanish, your attendee will receive subtitled message and voice in English. Text to speech, together with the speech to text and the translation modules provide the ultimate facility for multilanguage video session tool.

Another option of the transcription module is to use voice commands. This can be enabled from the configuration section of Dashboard. Available commands are: ‘share room’, ‘new room’, ‘exit the room’, ‘start the audio’, ‘stop the audio’, ‘start the video’, ‘stop the video’, ‘start the screen’, ‘stop the screen’, ‘open the chat’, ‘send chat message’, ‘close the chat’, ‘open the whiteboard’, ‘close the whiteboard’, ‘start the recording’, ‘pause the recording’, ‘resume the recording’, ‘stop the recording’, ‘open the settings’, ‘close the settings’, ‘open a file’, ‘close a file’, ‘swap the camera’, ‘raise the hand’, ‘lower the hand’, ‘open email’, ‘stop the voice recognition’.

<div id="nd-widget-container" class="nd-widget-container"></div>

<script id="newdev-embed-script" data-message="Start Video Chat" data-source_path="YOUR_DOMAIN" src="YOUR_DOMAIN/js/widget.js" async></script>

The script accepts some data attributes, so you can personalize it:

Data attribute	Description

In this demo the organizer of the meeting (teacher, tutor, streamer) starts with camera and microphone on, but his attendees are muted and video is disabled. They can take part in the meeting with video and/or audio by raising a hand. The meeting organizer can mute/unmute participants, allow/disallow video from the setting options, or allow the top right corner. Also to enter the meeting is required the host admission approval.

1. Open the organizer link.

2. Click on the viewer link to copy it in the clipboard and send it to a new device or open in incognito tab and receive live streaming.

From the visitor side, you can share screen, raise a hand to request to speak in the conference and participate in the common chat.

WARNING! Please note that you have to allow your browser to access camera and/or microphone in order the video chat to work.

In order to reduce the echo if you are on the same machine, you can mute microphone or lower the volume. For optimal demo results it is good to use two different devices.

If you need assistance or facing problems with the demo, please do check the contact options.
