Can I keep my existing website?
Yes. Keep your current website and add AI chat with the external embed, or publish an AI companion alongside your main site.

Can I use AI chat on my existing website?
Yes. Hosted Answer Cloud sites receive the integration when published. Websites hosted elsewhere can use the external embed with the intended organization and site settings.
