Botender
The menu, in chat.
Botender is an AI budtender for dispensary websites.
What it does
Questions about the menu you already run.
-
Jane, as it stands now.
The chat reads the Jane menu you already run. Stock and product names come from there. Botender does not keep a second catalog that can drift from the counter.
-
Where it can be installed.
The install covers WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, and a tag manager snippet. If your site is one of those, you can put the chat on it without a rebuild.
-
A staff person at the end.
When the shopper asks for staff, the thread is handed over with what was already said still visible. The chat is not the last word.
What a shopper can read
A menu answer that stops at a medical ask.
That product is listed on today's menu. I will not say it helps with sleep, pain, or anxiety. A person at the shop can take this chat if you want one.
Approval
Menu facts can be answered. A claim about a body cannot.
Stock, product names, and store hours from the menu you already publish can be answered after the checks. A sentence that says a product treats, cures, or helps a condition waits, and in practice it is refused or handed to staff. Turning the age check off is a decision a person at the shop makes. We will not write an exception into the chat because a competitor's site says it.
-
Answered from the menu.
What is listed, what the shop's pages already say, and how to reach a person, after the shopper has confirmed they are of legal age.
-
Refused or handed over.
Sleep, pain, and anxiety are the usual asks. The reply is a refusal or a handoff, not a softer version of the claim.

Install.
botender.com/install is the checklist: the snippet, the menu connection, the age check. The product home is botender.com.
-
The free plan.
botender.com is where the free plan is described, including the free monthly replies it includes. Start there when you are ready to turn the chat on.
-
The build, if chat is not the whole job.
The dispensary page is the path around the chat: several stores, the promo, the reorder. Use the plan when the chat is not the whole job.
Questions
Before you put the chat on the site.
What does an AI budtender mean here?
A chat on your site that answers product questions from the Jane menu and hands the thread to a staff person when the shopper wants one. It is not a budtender on the floor, and it is not allowed to give medical advice. If your menu is not on Jane, say so before you install.
Which website builders can host it?
WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, and a tag manager snippet, according to the install checklist. If your site is a custom build outside that list, do not assume the snippet will behave. Name the platform on the plan.
Will it tell a shopper a product helps them sleep?
No. That is a medical claim. The product refuses those, and so do we. A shopper who keeps asking is handed to staff. We will not write an exception into the chat because a competitor's site says it.
What happens when the shopper asks for staff?
The thread goes to a staff member, with the menu answers still visible. The chat does not keep the shopper in a loop. Staff finish the conversation.
The menu
If the chat is the job, install Botender.
If the job is the promo calendar or the path around the menu, tell us that instead. Our team will say which one you are describing.
