How it sells itself

Many shoppers give up when they have to search or browse through a large catalog to find what they want. This app lets shoppers describe what they need in plain language, then searches your store's real product catalog and builds a cart from it automatically. Items are added through Shopify's own cart, so checkout stays unchanged.

Chatbase builds an AI agent trained on your Shopify store and your documents, and keeps it in sync as your products change. Shoppers can ask questions, search products by text or photo, add items to the cart, pay with a checkout link or cash on delivery, and track orders, in chat on your store, WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger.

Key points
  • Builds a ready-to-buy cart from a shopper's own words, no browsing needed.
  • Lets staff take over any chat live and reply straight from your admin.
  • Answers order status and common questions automatically, any time of day.
  • Matches shopper conversations to your existing Shopify customer records.
  • 24/7 Availability: Ensure continuous support for customer inquiries anytime
  • Search for Products: Help customers quickly find products within your store
  • Personalized Recommendations: Deliver tailored product suggestions based on data
  • Instant Order Tracking: Keep customers updated on their Shopify purchases
