How it sells itself

Wismo adds an AI chat widget to your storefront that answers customer questions automatically. It looks up order status, checks product availability, explains policies, and handles inquiries. When the AI cannot resolve an issue, it creates a support ticket or hands off to live chat. All conversations are saved and analyzed, giving you insights into what customers ask about most.

Withly Inbox adds an AI chat to your storefront that answers from your products, collections, pages and policies, replying in the shopper's language. Answers quote your prices and stock, and product cards let shoppers pick a variant and add to cart in the chat. Questions it can't answer are listed so you can add them to Knowledge. When it can't help or you're closed, shoppers leave their email for your team.
