# Ask it something

This page runs a real Assist conversation against this site's live content.
Ask a question below and watch retrieval, citations, and the streamed answer
happen for real — nothing is staged.

1

## The question

Type anything a visitor might ask, or pick a suggestion. This is the same input
your visitors would see — in the widget, a docs sidebar, or your help centre.

Live demo, politely rate limited — a handful of questions per visitor.

How much does storage cost? What makes the CDN fast? How do I stop bots without annoying users? Can I deploy a VM from the CLI?

2

## The sources

Before a word of the answer is written, Assist retrieves the most relevant
passages from this site's index. These are the pages the answer will be
grounded in — and the citations your visitor can check.

Waiting for a question…

3

## The answer

Streamed word by word as it's composed, with the sources linked inline. Assist
answers only from your content — ask it something this site doesn't cover and
it will say so rather than make something up.

The answer will stream in here.

## The integration

Everything you just watched is what your visitors get from one line of code.
Point Assist at your content, paste the snippet, done. Prefer no integration at
all? Every site also gets a hosted assistant page you can simply link to.

```
<script src="https://assist.edge.network/widget.js"
  data-sitekey="ea_your_sitekey" defer></script>
```

## Now imagine it on your content
