The integration is bidirectional. Content flows from your platform into Kai Brain for analysis. Aggregated emotional signals flow back out to your dashboard. All intelligence runs on Kai’s servers — you never see individual data from Kai’s side.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, you need:
  • A Kai Affective Intelligence API key (issued per organisation at onboarding)
  • Admin access to your host platform (WordPress, Slack, Teams, or custom)
  • Nominated content sources to monitor (channels, comment threads, or survey streams)

​
Integration flow

1

Install

Admin installs the Kai connector from the platform marketplace or via manual package. A single API key is entered — this ties the connector to the organisation’s Kai account and sets the data scope.
2

Configure

Admin nominates which channels, comment threads, or content sources to monitor. Sets anonymisation floor (minimum group size before signals are surfaced), alert thresholds, Kai tone, and which signal layers to include.
3

Ingest

The connector pulls content from nominated sources, strips all identifiers, assigns pseudonymous uids (customer-side — Kai never sees real identities), and sends text batches to POST /ingest. Raw text is never stored.
4

Render

The dashboard calls GET /pulse on a configurable schedule and renders aggregated signals — mood distribution, psychological states, topic trends, suggested actions — natively inside the host platform.

​
Platform requirements

PHP 8.0+. WordPress 6.0+. Calls Kai API server-side. Renders dashboard in admin panel or shortcode-embeddable widget.
Slack App manifest with slash commands and Block Kit rendering. Scheduled Pulse digest posted to nominated channel.
Teams App with adaptive card rendering. Dashboard tab in Teams channel. Alert notifications via bot framework.
REST API with OpenAPI 3.0 spec. React component library for white-label embed. SDK: JavaScript / Python.
