Answer the shopper, track the order, win back the cart.

Shoppers ask the same questions before they buy and after they pay: does it come in my size, when will it arrive, how do I return it? AI agents answer instantly, give live order updates and follow up with shoppers who agreed to hear from you.

Who this is for: Online shops, retail stores, franchise outlets and brands that sell direct.

Retail and e-commerce

Where time and money leak.

"Where is my order?"

Order-status questions fill the support inbox after every sale.

Product questions

Sizing, stock and compatibility questions go unanswered at night, and the sale is lost.

Abandoned carts

Shoppers leave at checkout and are never reminded.

Returns admin

Each return needs the order, the reason and the right next step.

Seasonal peaks

Black Friday and December multiply questions overnight.

How this is worked out

Order questions a week x minutes each / 60 x hourly cost x 4.33 weeks. Abandoned carts a month x average order x your estimate of the share you could recover.

Your figures and chosen agents are added to the booking notes for you to edit before you send anything.

An example day

What a day looks like with AI agents in place.

  1. Yesterday's 60 orders get a dispatch update; nobody needs to ask where theirs is.

  2. A shopper asks if a jacket runs small. The assistant answers from your size guide; they buy.

  3. Shoppers who agreed to reminders and left a cart get one friendly email.

  4. A customer starts a return on WhatsApp; the request arrives with the order number and reason.

The care we take

Built for the rules your industry works under.

  • Cart reminders and offers go only to shoppers who opted in, or where your lawyer confirms the existing-customer rule applies (POPIA section 69).
  • Returns follow the Consumer Protection Act and, for online sales, the ECT Act cooling-off rules; the agent applies your policy and refers exceptions to a person.
  • Card details are never taken in a chat.
  • Age-restricted products need age checks set by you.
  • In the UK, EU and US the same care applies under their own laws (UK GDPR and PECR, the EU GDPR, and US rules such as CAN-SPAM). We confirm the rules for your country before any build.
