How to Activate SeaText AI Features After Installing the Code

After you paste the SeaText JavaScript snippet into your site, you still need to activate the AI features. The code itself does nothing until you tell it which agents to run and on which pages. Here is the direct answer:

Log in to your SeaText account, go to the Main AI Hub, select the specific pages where you want to deploy the AI, and click Configuration to adjust the parameters. You also get an initial round of variants to review in the Variants Editor. Plan for about one hour after installation before anything appears, because SeaText needs time to scan your site and generate content variants.

What the code does before activation

Installing the snippet is safe. It does not change any text, layout, or code on your site until you explicitly activate an AI agent. That is a deliberate design choice, so you can install without risk and then decide what to turn on.

The code only collects information about your pages and structure. After about an hour, SeaText has scanned your site and created a first set of translations and content variants. Those are drafts you can review, but they are not live until you activate something.

Step-by-step: How to activate AI features

1. Log in to your SeaText account. Use the same account you used when you received the snippet code.
2. Open the Main AI Hub. This is the control panel where you pick which agents run on which pages. It is separate from the Variants Editor.
3. Select the pages. Choose the specific URLs or page groups where you want AI to work. You do not have to activate on every page at once.
4. Click Configuration. For each selected page or agent set, adjust the AI parameters to match your needs. For example, you can set the tone, the target languages for translation, or the keywords for headline rewriting.
5. Save and activate. After you configure, confirm the activation. The agent then starts running on those pages.
6. Check the Variants Editor. Go to the "Variants Edit" section in the left panel, select the URL and language, and review or edit the content variants that were generated.

That is the core process. If you use a CMS like WordPress or Shopify, you may see an activation switch directly in the dashboard, but the Main AI Hub is where you control everything.

Managing the initial variants

Right after installation, SeaText creates an initial round of automatic translations and content variants for testing. These are not automatically published. You must review them first.

In the Variants Editor, you can:

• See every URL and language variant that exists.
• Edit the copy manually if the AI proposal is not perfect.
• Create new variants from scratch.
• Compare variants and decide which to use.

This step is optional, but it is how you keep control. If you skip it, the AI uses its default settings when you activate, and you might not like the result.

Configuring AI parameters in the Main AI Hub

The Main AI Hub is where you make activation decisions per page. It is not a single toggle for the whole site. Instead, you choose the scope.

For example, you might activate the Translation Agent on your product pages only, or the CRO Optimizer on your landing pages. Each agent has its own configuration panel where you set:

• Which pages it applies to
• What language settings to use (for translation agents)
• Which keywords or campaigns to match (for ad intent agents)
• How aggressive the changes should be (if the agent supports it)

Configuration is also where you set limits. If you only want the AI to change headlines and CTAs, you say so. If you want full page rewrite, you choose that.

Common mistakes to avoid

Here are the most frequent errors when people try to activate SeaText AI after installing the code:

• Waiting zero time. SeaText needs roughly an hour to scan your site. If you open the dashboard immediately, you will not see any variants yet. Give it the full hour.
• Activating without reviewing variants. The initial variants are drafts. If you activate an agent before reviewing, the AI might use copy that is not what you want. Review first, then activate.
• Using the wrong panel. The Variants Editor is for editing content. The Main AI Hub is for activating agents. Do not confuse the two.
• Selecting too many pages at once. Start with one page or a small group. Check the results before you scale to the whole site.

Key facts about activation

Limitations and when this advice does not apply

This activation path works for the JavaScript snippet installation described in the SeaText documentation. If you installed via a specific platform plugin (WordPress, Shopify, Wix, etc.), the dashboard may show a quicker activation toggle, but the same Main AI Hub is still the source of truth.

The one-hour scan time is an estimate. Large sites or sites with many pages may take longer. You can check the dashboard to see when the initial variants appear.

If you are using a completely custom integration or a headless setup, the activation flow might differ. In that case, check the implementation guide for large websites or contact support.

Terminology you will see

• Main AI Hub — The control center where you activate and configure AI agents per page.
• Variants Editor — The section where you review and edit the content the AI generates.
• Agent — A specific AI feature that performs one job, like translation or headline rewriting.
• Activation — The action that makes an AI agent start working on a selected page.

Frequently asked questions

How long after installing the code will AI start working?

SeaText needs about one hour to scan your website and generate the first set of variants. After that, you can activate agents in the Main AI Hub.

Can I activate AI on only some pages?

Yes. In the Main AI Hub you select the specific pages where you want to deploy the AI. You do not have to activate the whole site at once.

Do I have to edit the initial variants before activating?

No, but it is recommended. The initial variants are drafts. If you activate without reviewing, the AI uses its default settings. Reviewing lets you catch issues early.

What if the code is installed but I do not see the Main AI Hub?

Make sure you are logged in to the correct SeaText account and that the snippet is properly installed on the live site. If the hub still does not appear, re-check the installation steps and wait the full scan time.

Will activating AI change my site permanently?

The AI changes content only on the pages you activate. You can always go back and edit or deactivate from the Main AI Hub. Nothing is overwritten until you approve the variants.

Is there a cost to activate after installation?

The SeaText documentation says "Click here for pricing" and the homepage mentions enterprise plans. Activation itself is part of your plan, but you should check your contract or the pricing page for what is included.
