An AI voice agent for websites is software that lives on your site and holds a real conversation with visitors — by voice or text — instead of making them read, scroll, and hunt. It greets them, understands what they're asking in ordinary language, answers from your approved business information, and acts: it navigates the site, captures the enquiry, and books the appointment. Maya is that agent — it arrives already configured from your own pages, so it knows your business and looks like it belongs, live in about ten minutes.

Most site chat is a text box that sits in the corner and waits. The visitor has to type, phrase the question well, and hope the canned reply matches — and it can only ever reply. It can't move through the site, it doesn't speak, and it doesn't know your live prices or stock. So the visitor who couldn't find what they came for still leaves, and you never learn they were there.
Maya begins where that box stops. A static website sits there like a parked car — everything works, but the visitor has to drive it themselves. Maya is the chauffeur: the visitor just says where they're going, by voice or text, and Maya takes them there — scrolling and navigating the real site for them, hands-free, answering from your live data, capturing them if they go, and booking them if they're ready. Once it can do all that, "chat widget" stops being the right word.
It sets itself up from your site — you don't build it, you point it at your pages — Maya reads your public website, catalogue, page structure and connected business data and configures itself — no flows to draw, no FAQ to write. You review what it learned and correct anything in a sentence. A non-technical owner is live in about ten minutes, not a two-week project.
It greets every visitor by voice or text — in their own language, from the first word — the visitor can talk to it or type to it, and Maya opens in their language, not yours. That first moment — answered in their own words, out loud if they want — is what tells them this isn't a dead brochure with a bot bolted on.
It drives the site for them — scrolling and navigating by voice — the visitor doesn't point-and-click; they say what they want and Maya moves through the pages for them, hands-free — no mouse, keyboard, or screen — right up until they choose to book or pay. So even someone with their hands full, or who can't use a mouse, gets where they're going by just talking.
It understands the structure of your site — it knows where things are and takes you there — when a visitor asks "where's your cancellation policy" or "show me the family rooms," Maya doesn't hand back a link — it knows which section holds the answer and takes them to it. The visitor uses your site without ever having to learn how it's laid out.
It follows the visitor's language — even when they switch mid-conversation — Maya replies in the language of every message, and if a visitor slips from English into German mid-sentence it follows without missing a beat or asking them to start over. And when your site already has that language, it switches to the correct version. The foreign visitor who'd have bounced can read, talk, and book in their own words.
It captures the visitor the moment they'd have left — the enquiry that would have walked out at 11pm stays — name, need, and contact — instead of a form nobody checks till morning. You get a recoverable lead instead of an anonymous bounce.
It answers objections and books the appointment inside the conversation — the visitor about to close the tab gets an informed response, the right next step, and a reason to continue — and "call us to book" becomes "you're booked," while your team stays with the customers in front of them. (Booking plan and up.)
It tells you what visitors kept asking for that you don't yet offer — you stop guessing what to add next — your own visitors surface the gaps every week, so "14 people asked about airport transfers" becomes a decision instead of a blind spot.
This is the question every business asks about a voice agent, and it's where Maya is strongest. Maya checks its answers against your approved business information before it responds. When it can't verify something — a price you never listed, a policy it doesn't have — it says so instead of guessing, offers the visitor the right next step, and flags the question for you. You can mark it correctly handled, or teach Maya the answer in one sentence.
What that means for you: Maya gets more useful over time without ever being rewarded for confidently inventing things — so a voice agent that speaks with confidence never speaks a price you don't charge or promises something you don't do. That's the difference between an agent you can put in front of customers and one you can't.
Both, by design. A visitor can speak to Maya and be answered out loud, or type to it and read the reply — same agent, same actions either way. It answers, navigates, captures, and books whether the visitor talks or types. Voice matters most on mobile, where typing is the friction that loses the enquiry, but nothing is voice-only.
Voice works in real browsers and on iPhone. On many Android in-app browsers — the ones inside Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook — the microphone is blocked by the app, so there Maya falls back to text capture and a hand-off to a real browser rather than pretending voice works. It's honest about where it can and can't listen, so a visitor is never left tapping a dead mic.
A traditional chatbot follows predefined flows and matches common intents, usually answering with a canned reply or a link. A capable AI agent understands an open-ended request, holds context across the conversation, checks it against live business information, and acts — navigating, capturing, booking. Maya adds one more difference: the business doesn't build that agent from a blank canvas — Maya configures itself from your existing website.
One script tag before the closing body tag — live in about ten minutes — or a one-click install on WordPress, WooCommerce, Shopify, Wix, GoHighLevel, Squarespace, and BigCommerce. Three plans by capability: Connect (answer + capture), Booking (adds selling and appointment booking), and Reception (adds phone, SMS, and multiple sites) — each priced predictably, not metered per visitor. Every plan has a free trial.
