KrateCMS includes a built-in AI chat powered by OpenAI, accessible directly from your admin panel. You can use it to brainstorm ideas, draft and refine content, or switch into agent mode and let the AI take real actions on your posts — creating, searching, fetching, and updating content on your behalf.Documentation Index

Opening AI chat
Navigate to AI Chat in the admin sidebar. The chat interface loads immediately — no additional configuration is required on your end. If you do not see the AI Chat option in your sidebar, the feature may not be enabled on your plan. Contact your site administrator for access.Chat modes
KrateCMS AI chat offers six modes. Pick a mode from the selector at the top of the chat panel — each one tunes the assistant for a different task. You can switch between modes within the same session.- Chat
- Email Copy
- Images
- Code
- API Q&A
- Agent
The default conversational interface. Use it to ask questions, get writing feedback, brainstorm topics, or generate draft text you can copy into your posts.Example prompts:
Conversation history and token usage
Your conversation history is maintained for the duration of your session. You can scroll back through the full exchange to review earlier messages or copy generated content. Token usage for every message is recorded behind the scenes. Inline counts are not shown in the chat panel itself — to review per-message token usage and model costs, super-admins can open Admin → Conversations and inspect any conversation.Tenant scope
The AI agent operates entirely within your tenant’s content. It can only see and act on the posts that belong to your site — it cannot access other tenants’ data or take actions outside your account.Tips for better results
Be specific with your prompts
Be specific with your prompts
The more context you give, the more useful the response. Instead of “write a blog post,” try “write a 300-word blog post introduction about the benefits of async communication for remote engineering teams, written for a non-technical audience.”
Use chat mode to draft, then copy into the editor
Use chat mode to draft, then copy into the editor
AI chat is a great place to generate raw content. Once you have something you like, copy it into the post editor and refine it with TinyMCE before publishing.
In agent mode, confirm before publishing
In agent mode, confirm before publishing
When the AI creates or updates a post, it saves as a draft by default. Open the post editor to review, adjust, and set a publish date before making it live.
Iterate on responses
Iterate on responses
If the first response isn’t quite right, follow up with a refinement. For example: “Make that shorter” or “Change the tone to be more formal” — the AI retains the conversation context.
Common use cases
Content drafting
Generate introductions, conclusions, or full draft sections for your posts. Use chat mode as a writing partner when you’re starting from a blank page.
Post management
Switch to agent mode to list, search, or fetch posts without leaving the chat. Useful for quickly finding a specific post to reference or update.
Bulk updates
Ask the agent to update a post’s content in one step — paste the new text and let the AI handle saving it, so you skip navigating to the editor.
Brainstorming
Use chat mode to explore angles for a topic, generate SEO-friendly title variants, or workshop a call-to-action before writing the full post.
