Use case · E-commerce

Customers answered in seconds, at any hour.

At an online homeware shop with 25 employees, most support messages ask the same questions: where is my order, does this fit, what can I do about it. See how a support chatbot, connected through MCP to the shop, the carrier and the helpdesk, answers with real data — and passes the rest to the team.

Sofia

Head of customer support

Most messages ask something the shop already knows. We spend the day copying answers from one screen to another.

Illustrative persona, based on typical online retail roles.

A day in support

Meet Sofia.

Sofia leads customer support. Sales have doubled in two years; the support team is still three people.

  1. 140 messages arrived overnight through the chat, email and social networks.

  2. Half ask where an order is. Each answer means opening the shop back office and the carrier's website.

  3. Questions about sizes, materials and compatibility wait hours — and some customers give up on the purchase.

  4. A complaint about a damaged item is buried in the queue. The customer has already written twice.

The challenge

The answers exist. Getting to them takes too long.

Order status, stock and policies are all in the shop's systems. But the customer asks in the chat, and someone has to go and find the answer.

  • Customers waiting

    Simple questions sit in the queue, and each delay means another message chasing the first.

  • Lost sales

    Product questions answered the next day often arrive after the customer has bought elsewhere.

  • Complaints buried

    The cases that really need a person are mixed in with everything else.

What changes

A chatbot that knows your shop.

With MCP servers connected to the shop, the carrier and the helpdesk, the chatbot answers with real data and only acts with the customer's confirmation. Refunds and sensitive cases go to the team, with the whole story already summarised.

      Safeguards

      Automation that knows when to step aside.

      • Clearly an AI

        The chatbot always introduces itself as an AI assistant and the customer can ask for a person at any time.

      • Verified customers

        Order details are only shown after checking the order number and the customer's email or code.

      • People decide

        Changes need the customer's confirmation; refunds, compensation and exceptions are always decided by the team.

      • Data in the EU

        Processing in the European Union; your data does not train third-party models.

      Frequently asked questions

      Will it work with our shop platform?

      We connect to the most common online shop platforms and carriers through their APIs. The assessment confirms the best route for you.

      What happens when the chatbot does not know the answer?

      It says so, does not make up an answer and offers to pass the conversation to the team, with a summary of the case. Outside working hours it opens a ticket and tells the customer when to expect a reply.

      How long does the first implementation take?

      A proof of concept with order tracking and the most common questions typically takes 3 to 6 weeks.
