The problem it solves

Customers expect instant answers about products, orders, and policies, but your team can't be online around the clock. Repeating the same answers to common questions eats up time that could go toward sales or support that actually needs a person.

Who it fits

E-commerce businesses using WooCommerce or Shopify who want faster customer support.

How it works

  1. The system pulls in product data from WooCommerce or Shopify and past emails from Gmail
  2. AI converts that information into a searchable knowledge base
  3. When a customer sends a message, the system finds the most relevant information
  4. AI combines that with the conversation history to write a natural, accurate reply
What you get

Store questions answered from your own product info

Shoppers get accurate answers about your products pulled from your own store data and past emails, any time of day.

What you get

An instant, accurate chatbot reply drawn from your store's real data.

What you need

A WooCommerce or Shopify store, a Gmail account, and an OpenAI API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
