AI for New Zealand Retailers

Shoppers ask questions on your website at 9pm, DM your Instagram about stock, and abandon carts because nobody answered fast enough. An AI agent handles all of it — in real time, in your brand's voice.

The Challenge

Retail runs on volume, and volume is where things get missed.

Enquiries outside trading hours

A shopper asks about sizing or stock at 8pm. By the time someone replies the next morning, they've bought it elsewhere.

Abandoned carts go unchased

Most stores have no real follow-up beyond a generic automated email, so recoverable sales are simply written off.

Repetitive questions eat staff time

"Where's my order", "do you have this in stock", "what's your returns policy" — the same questions, answered manually, all day.

Enquiries split across channels

Instagram DMs, Facebook Messenger, website chat and phone calls all land in different places, so some simply get missed.

Where AI Helps

One AI agent, briefed on your products and policies, working every channel at once.

  • Product & stock questions — answered instantly from your catalogue, day or night
  • Order tracking — shoppers get a status update without emailing support
  • Returns & exchanges — policy explained and the process started automatically
