How it sells itself

Shoppers have questions before they buy. Fala lets them ask, out loud or by typing, and answers from your own store content. Click Create my FALA agent, then Train from my store to read your policies, pages, and products. Turn Storefront agent on in the theme editor. Answers link shoppers to the right page, and anyone who wants a follow-up is asked for a phone or email.

Voice Bar helps merchants reduce support inquiries, improve customer experience, and engagement by answering common questions through a voice assistant. It’s easy to set up - just customize the voice, color, and knowledge base. No coding required.

Key points
  • Voice and typed answers on the storefront from a single agent bubble.
  • Create the agent from Shopify Admin using your public store pages.
  • Turn Storefront agent on in the theme editor. No theme code edits.
  • Choose from 4 voices and 8 vibrant colors to suit your store.
  • Add info easily by uploading docs or pasting text into the knowledge base.
  • Shoppers ask questions and get instant answers by voice.
  • Supports multiple languages for global customer reach.
