On July 23rd, we hosted our very first webinar, "Common Ninja Goes AI," and what an incredible milestone it was! With live demos, practical examples, and exclusive behind-the-scenes glimpses into our latest innovations, we revealed how artificial intelligence is transforming the way you build and optimize websites.
If you missed the live event, don't worry, you can still watch the full replay here. But for now, let's dive into everything we unveiled and how these game-changing tools will revolutionize your workflow.
Who We Are at Common Ninja
Before diving into our AI innovations, let's quickly recap what makes Common Ninja special. We're a no-code platform trusted by over 500,000 businesses worldwide, from individual entrepreneurs and small businesses to large digital agencies. Our platform specializes in creating customizable website widgets: forms, sliders, popups, reviews, and so much more.
What sets us apart is how easy our widgets are to set up, how they're fully embeddable, and how they work seamlessly with any website builder platform. Plus, we integrate with essential tools like Zapier, Google Calendar, and Airtable, making it effortless to connect your widgets to your existing workflow.
Now, with our new AI features, you can even create widgets with just a prompt, making the process faster and smarter than ever before.
Revolutionary Tool #1: AI Website Analyzer
Our first major announcement was the AI Website Analyzer, a tool that makes website optimization simple and efficient. Here's how it works:
How It Works
Simply type in any website URL, and our tool instantly scans and analyzes the entire site. It understands the design elements, including colors and fonts, and identifies what content might be missing. Then, it suggests specific widgets (forms, FAQs, reviews, and more) all styled to match the website's existing design.
Why It's a Game-Changer
The best part? These widgets are ready to use immediately. No technical skills required. The tool provides actionable recommendations on what and how to improve the website to increase engagement and enhance overall appearance.
Perfect for Agencies
This is one of our favorite tools because it's an incredibly powerful marketing asset, especially for agencies. You can quickly show clients where their site could improve, suggest specific widgets, and offer this as a new service, all without any development work.
Revolutionary Tool #2: AI Chatbot Widget
Next, we talked about the AI Chatbot Widget, your new digital salesperson and support representative.
Core Functionality
The AI chatbot provides real-time answers using the data you feed it, acting like a knowledgeable salesperson or support rep. We demonstrated this with a furniture website, showing how visitors could ask complex questions like "suggest chairs that I can stack" and receive specific product recommendations with direct links to product pages.
What Makes Our Chatbot Unique
Here's where it gets exciting: we're integrating our chatbot with Common Ninja's existing 200+ widget library. This means your chatbot can display widgets directly within conversations, booking widgets for scheduling meetings, Google reviews for social proof, or even coupon codes to close sales. This integration happens naturally as part of the conversation, based on user intent and at exactly the right moment.
Easy Setup and Management
Setting up the chatbot is straightforward:
- Knowledge Base: Add your website, and our system automatically crawls all pages (no need to add them one by one)
- Multiple Sources: Include FAQ questions, text blocks, or upload files
- Lead Generation: Every chat becomes a potential lead (you can see what users are looking for and their intent)
- User Information Collection: Activate forms to collect contact details before chat initiation
Revolutionary Tool #3: Built-In AI Editor
Then, we introduced the AI Editor, a tool that lets you talk to your widgets and customize them using natural language.
What It Can Do
With the AI Editor, you can:
- Change content and adjust settings with simple prompts
- Transform the look and feel of widgets instantly
- Handle complex customizations that would normally take extensive time and platform experience
Real Examples in Action
During the demo, we showed how you can:
- Write "change the color scheme to dark mode with a leading blue color"
- Ask for "engaging messaging to promote a 20% Black Friday sale" for popups
- Request "update my availability to Monday to Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 4 p.m." for booking widgets
Live Demo Highlights
We demonstrated the AI Editor with two widgets:
- FAQ Widget: We asked it to "write five questions about the live webinar I'm currently working on about Common Ninja Goes AI," and it instantly generated relevant questions and comprehensive answers.
- Calendar Widget: We requested it to "remove all current events, add two new events in July, and change the color scheme to dark with leading pink." The AI perfectly understood the complex request and executed it flawlessly.
The beauty of the AI Editor is that it works alongside manual editing (you can always tweak and customize everything based on your specific needs).
Revolutionary Tool #4: Embeddable - The Ultimate Game-Changer
Finally, we unveiled Embeddable, our secret project that we've been developing for the past three months, and it's absolutely revolutionary.
The Problem It Solves
While Common Ninja offers 200+ widgets covering a wide range of use cases, we've received countless requests for highly specific or unique widgets that weren't practical to include in our standard suite. Our existing widgets cover only about 50-60% of what businesses truly need for scaling.
The Solution: Embeddable
Embeddable is an AI builder that empowers you to create fully customized widget experiences and embed them on any platform (Wix, Shopify, Duda, WebFlow, or any other platform you use).
Key Features
- SEO-friendly by design and optimized for performance
- Responsive and platform-agnostic
- Built-in powerful features: Dynamic CMS, database layer, third-party integrations, design inspector
- No developer required: Built specifically for non-technical users
Live Demo: Real Customer Request
We showcased Embeddable using a real customer request from just the day before. A customer asked us to recreate a complex five-step wizard widget. Using natural language, we described what we wanted to build, and within five minutes, Embeddable created:
- A "Schedule Now" button
- A five-step wizard popup
- Dynamic database storage for leads
- Built-in integrations for Slack, email, Facebook, Google Ads, and Google Analytics
- A design inspector for easy customization
When to Use What
Use Common Ninja when: You need pre-built, ready-to-use widgets from our 200+ widget suite for quick setup and broad use cases.
Use Embeddable when: You want to create custom widget experiences with full control over flow, design, and functionality, tailored exactly to your needs.
The two platforms complement each other beautifully!
