See every featureLate at night a shopper is on your product page, wondering if it runs small. Nobody is there to ask, so she closes the tab, and you never knew she came. Answerhall gives her somewhere to ask. It reads every page, product and policy on your store and answers in plain words with an OpenAI model held to your pages, with a link to the source. When your store does not say, it says so and sends her to you.
CrawlBrain takes over the search box your theme already has. Install the app, let it import your catalogue, then switch search on in the theme editor. No code is needed. Shoppers see products as they type, even when they write "snekers". Filters for color and size narrow the list. A question like "do you have a warm jacket for winter?" gets an answer from your product pages, with the jackets it recommends.
- Answers from your pages and policies only, with the source linked. No guessing.
- See every question asked, the answer given, and what your store does not say.
- On your storefront from the theme editor, no code: an Ask button or a bar.
- Instant product results as shoppers type, with typo fixes and filters
- Answers questions from your product pages and store policies
- Reads requests like "black hoodie in size L" or "jackets on sale"
- Replies in the shopper's language, from the pages you already have
