tells — Text Analysis Widget
tells is a text-first analysis widget that reads between the lines of any message. Coaches, mediators, communication trainers, recruiters, and intake teams add it to a WordPress page or post so that clients can analyze their own messages — or so that practitioners can surface signals before a session begins.
Two modes are included:
- Public demo widget — free, no account required. Useful for articles, landing pages, and audience education.
- Licensed practitioner widget — paid white-label embed. Client-data privacy controls, higher analysis volume, and your branding. Requires a tells embed license from tells.voiddo.com.
The plugin includes a shortcode, a dynamic Gutenberg block, and a settings page. It does not analyze content inside WordPress and does not send post content to tells. It only renders the widget where you place it.
Shortcode
Use the site-wide settings:
[tells_widget]
Force public demo mode:
[tells_widget mode="public" height="700"]
Use a licensed embed for one page:
[tells_widget mode="licensed" license="paste-license-here" height="760"]
Block
The plugin registers a dynamic block named tells widget. The block lets you choose plugin settings, public demo mode, or licensed mode per page.
External Services
This plugin connects to the tells service at https://tells.voiddo.com.
What data is sent and when:
In public mode the widget loads a sandboxed iframe from https://tells.voiddo.com/embed/message-analyzer.html. Text entered by a visitor inside that iframe is submitted by the iframe directly to tells for analysis. No WordPress data is involved.
In licensed mode the plugin’s frontend JavaScript sends the configured embed license key, the current site hostname, and the browser user-agent string to https://tells.voiddo.com/api/v1/embed/init to obtain a short-lived session token. The analysis widget then runs inside a sandboxed iframe at https://tells.voiddo.com/embed/iframe.
What is NOT sent: WordPress post content, page content, comments, users, admin credentials, or any database rows are never sent to tells by this plugin.
