After Copying the SEATEXT AI Integration Code: The Full Setup Checklist

After you copy the SEATEXT AI integration code, paste it into your website's HTML. Then verify that SEATEXT sees your site name, and activate the agents you want from the Main AI Hub. This page walks you through the exact order.

The code itself won't change anything until it runs on your live domain and links to your SEATEXT account. Treat this as a five-step checklist: paste, check domain, activate, confirm, and turn on the agents.

Prerequisites before you paste

Make sure you have these ready before you start:

  • A SEATEXT AI account. You need one before you can install the script.
  • A real, registered domain. Localhost and dynamic development domains are restricted.
  • Access to your website's HTML or custom code section.
  • If you use WPEngine, install the WP Engine plugin that lets you add custom JavaScript to your pages.

Why these matter: the script ties to a single account and a single primary URL. Without an account the snippet has no backend to call. Without a valid domain the activation handshake fails.

1. Paste the code into your website

Put the copied JavaScript into the HTML of the pages you want SEATEXT to work on. On most platforms, that means a custom code or scripts area in your CMS. If you use WPEngine, install the WP Engine plugin that enables you to add custom JavaScript code, then apply it across all your pages.

Place the snippet in the <head> or just before the closing </body> tag. Both positions work; the head loads earlier, the body ensures the DOM is ready. Choose the method your CMS recommends.

If you manage multiple templates, add the snippet to the global layout so every page inherits it. You can later restrict which pages run agents in the Main AI Hub.

2. Check your domain and account setup

SEATEXT links one account to one primary URL. If you want to use it on a second domain, you need a separate account. Development URLs such as localhost are blocked. Use a real, registered domain. If you have a development domain that changes dynamically, it may not work because SEATEXT needs to associate traffic with your account.

Decision criteria: each brand, sub‑brand, or regional site that needs independent reporting gets its own account. Subdomains (e.g., blog.example.com) count as the same primary URL if they share the same root domain.

3. Activate the script by visiting your page

After the code is live, open your site and refresh it several times. Stay on the page for at least 40 seconds. This triggers SEATEXT to link the website to your account. Skipping this step is a common reason the integration looks installed but never activates.

Mechanics: the script sends a beacon on page load. The 40‑second dwell ensures the beacon fires and the backend registers a valid session. Short visits or bounces may not register.

4. Wait for your website name to appear

Wait at least five minutes after activation. Then look at the top of the SEATEXT dashboard for your website name next to the SEATEXT logo. That tells you the connection is ready. If the name doesn't show after ten minutes, contact SEATEXT support.

Why the delay: the backend processes the beacon, matches it to your account, and provisions the agent runtime. Five minutes is typical; ten minutes covers edge cases like CDN propagation.

5. Activate agents in the Main AI Hub

Go to the Main AI Hub and activate the AI agents you need on the pages you choose. Click Configuration to adjust parameters. This is where you choose which parts of the site get rewritten, translated, or optimized.

Agents available include: CRO Optimizer, Google Ads Landing Page Agent, Website Translation Agent (125 languages), Bot Protection Agent, AI A/B Testing Agent, and more. Each agent can be toggled per URL pattern.

6. Review and edit variants (optional)

SEATEXT creates an initial round of automatic translations and variants. If you want to check them, log in, open Variants Edit in the left panel, pick the URL and language, then review, create, or manually edit translations.

This step is optional but recommended for brand‑sensitive copy. You can approve, reject, or rewrite any variant before it goes live.

What the integration code does

Your JavaScript snippet is the bridge between your website and SEATEXT. Until you activate it, it stays inert and doesn't modify your content. After activation, it lets SEATEXT rewrite headlines, offers, and calls to action, translate pages, and run other agents. You control this in the Main AI Hub.

The script loads a lightweight runtime that communicates with SEATEXT's edge network. It reads page DOM, sends context to the AI, and applies returned changes without full page reloads.

Key facts

These facts come from SEATEXT's General Integration page.

ItemWhat to know
Account requiredBefore you can install the script, you need a SEATEXT AI account.
Domain ruleEach SEATEXT AI account is linked to a single primary URL.
LocalhostDevelopment URLs, such as localhost, are restricted for security reasons.
ActivationVisit or refresh your website several times and stay on your page for at least 40 seconds.
ConfirmationWait at least five minutes until you see your website name displayed next to the SEATEXT logo.
Next stepProceed to the Main AI Hub to activate the necessary AI on your preferred pages.

Limitations and when this advice doesn't apply

  • If you don't yet have a SEATEXT account, create one first. The script requires an account.
  • If you want to use SEATEXT on multiple websites, create one account for each website. Do not reuse the same code on different domains with one account.
  • If you're testing on localhost or a dynamic development domain, integration may fail. Use a valid real domain.
  • If you use WPEngine, the generic paste step won't work until you install the WP Engine plugin that adds custom JavaScript to your pages.
  • If you copied the code but haven't pasted it yet, go back to the General Integration page and complete the install before trying to activate.

Troubleshooting common issues

If the website name never appears, check that the snippet is actually loading. Open browser dev tools, look at the Network tab, and filter for the SEATEXT domain. A 200 response means the script loaded.

If the script loads but activation fails, verify you stayed on the page for 40 seconds. Ad blockers or strict CSP headers can block the beacon. Temporarily disable them for a test visit.

For WPEngine sites, ensure the plugin is active and the snippet is applied to all pages. Clear server‑side cache after saving.

Best practices for multi‑domain setups

Create a separate SEATEXT account for each primary domain. Use a consistent naming convention (e.g., brand‑com, brand‑de) so you can identify them in the dashboard.

If you have a staging environment that uses a real domain (staging.example.com), treat it as a separate primary URL and create a dedicated account. This keeps test data out of production reports.

Understanding the Main AI Hub agents

The Main AI Hub lists all available agents. Each agent has a Configuration button that opens parameters such as target URLs, language selection, and aggressiveness level.

Start with the CRO Optimizer and Website Translation Agent. They provide immediate visible changes. Enable Bot Protection Agent if you run paid campaigns and want refund evidence.

Next steps after activation

Monitor the dashboard for the first 24 hours. Check the Variants Edit panel to see generated translations. Review conversion lift reports in the Analytics section.

Schedule a weekly review to approve new variants, adjust agent parameters, and add new URL patterns as you expand.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to paste the code on every page?

For WPEngine, you apply the plugin across all pages. For the script itself, add it to your global site code so SEATEXT can work on the pages you choose later in the Main AI Hub.

What happens if I don't stay for 40 seconds?

SEATEXT may not link the visit to your account. You can visit again, refresh several times, and stay longer to activate it.

Why don't I see my website name after five minutes?

Wait up to 10 minutes. If it still doesn't appear, contact SEATEXT support because the installation may have failed.

Can I use the same account on a dev and a production domain?

No. Each SEATEXT AI account is linked to a single primary URL. Create separate accounts for each domain.

Is the AI active as soon as I paste the code?

No. It remains inert until activated. You activate it by visiting the page for at least 40 seconds and then turning on agents in the Main AI Hub.

What about localhost?

It is restricted for security reasons. Use a valid real domain.

Where do I edit the translations?

Log in to your SEATEXT account, navigate to Variants Edit in the left panel, and select the URL and language you want to edit.
