Who it's for

Best for

  • Shopify ecommerce brands that want order data and tickets in one place
  • Support teams answering email, chat, social DMs and voice from one inbox

Not for

  • High-volume stores whose ticket counts spike and need flat, predictable pricing
  • Teams wanting a hands-off AI agent for complex warranty and technical tickets

Features

  • AI Agent trained on brand rules

    An AI agent pre-trained on ecommerce conversations applies a brand's tone, policies and SOPs with guardrails. Complex cases hand off to human agents with full context.

  • Native Shopify data

    Shopify orders, accounts and products appear inside the ticket without leaving the helpdesk, alongside 300+ integrations such as Recharge, Klaviyo and Yotpo.

  • Revenue attribution reporting

    Reporting shows how much revenue support conversations generate, alongside automation rates and team performance, tying support work directly to sales.

  • AI coaching and ticket routing

    Proactive coaching tips help agents improve with every conversation, while tickets are routed, assigned and managed across the team for collaboration.

What users say

Pros

  • Every ticket opens with order history and lifetime spend beside the conversation, removing tab-switching to the store admin.
  • Automations and macros answer roughly 40% of inquiries instantly and noticeably cut handling time.
  • Email, live chat, social DMs and voice messages all land in one inbox, with teammates tagged on tickets.
  • Revenue attribution ties conversations to actual sales, so managers can report a revenue figure for the team.

Cons

  • The AI agent needs heavy training and still sends wrong answers that agents must apologise for after handoff.
  • The forced layout change merges separate sections into one cluttered screen and adds an always-on AI button that cannot be hidden.
  • Billing counts automated order-tracking emails as tickets, so the monthly cost climbs with volume instead of headcount.
  • AI replies are billed per conversation at roughly $1.50, so a busy month can produce a four-figure bill.
  • Inquiries go through an AI bot, get an automated acknowledgement, and then sit unanswered for weeks or months.
  • The Shopify connection shows only basic order and account data, with no B2B and retail distinction and no live cart contents.
