How it sells itself

BitoChat installs an AI chat assistant on your storefront that answers customer questions using your store's own products, pages, and policies. It gives instant, accurate answers around the clock and reduces support tickets. The app captures visitor leads, logs every conversation, and shows analytics in your admin dashboard. Customize the widget's look and launch it through a theme app embed — no code required.

Matter Chat answers your storefront's questions using your own pages. Shipping, returns, materials, sizing: it reads what you've already written and puts the source page under every answer, so shoppers can check it themselves. If your content doesn't cover a question, it says so. No guessing. The question goes on a to-write list so you can see what shoppers keep asking that your store never answers.

Key points
  • AI chat trained on your products, pages, and store policies
  • Product recommendations drawn from your live store catalog
  • Automatic lead capture from chat conversations
  • Full conversation history and analytics in your admin
  • Cited answers from your own pages — shoppers can check every claim
  • Honest refusals, logged as a ranked list of content to write
  • Pre-sale questions become leads with the conversation attached
  • One-toggle theme app embed — no theme code, clean uninstall
