Problem
eCommerce stores lose the majority of visitors because site navigation and product discovery are slow or confusing, leading to high bounce rates and low conversion despite paid traffic.
Solution
ShopAssist provides an AI-powered shopping assistant that engages visitors in natural‑language conversations, answers product questions, and proactively recommends items. The assistant crawls the store’s website to build a contextual knowledge base, supports all languages, and can ingest additional documents such as sizing guides or manuals for deeper product insight. It integrates with major platforms (Shopify, WooCommerce, or any API‑compatible shop) and syncs product data daily or in real time for larger plans. Merchants receive analytics on conversation volume, intent trends, and sales impact, enabling continuous optimization of the virtual sales associate.
Target Audience
ShopAssist is aimed at DTC and eCommerce brands of all sizes—from emerging stores under $2 M revenue to large enterprises exceeding $10 M—that sell online through Shopify, WooCommerce, or API‑compatible platforms and seek to improve conversion and customer engagement.
