How it sells itself

Frontkick adds an AI shopping assistant to your storefront. Shoppers can ask product questions, view product suggestions, add selected items to cart, and get information about shipping, payments, returns, and store policies. Merchants can customize the assistant, add store information, and manage how it appears in the storefront.

SellBot sells from your real catalog: shoppers get product cards with Add to cart, and answers from your shipping, return and FAQ policies. Smart Triggers open the chat at the right moment. When a shopper asks for a person, the AI steps back and your phone speaks up: reply as yourself from the free iOS/Android app or the admin, with roles and business hours.

Key points
  • AI chat for product and store questions
  • Helps shoppers compare products faster
  • Answers shipping, returns, and policy questions
  • AI product recommendations and comparisons from your catalog
  • In-chat order tracking and back-in-stock alerts
  • Live agent handoff with email and Slack notifications
  • Auto-answers from your store policies, one-click import
