The store and the customer are made up. These are the stops we can set up for your store.

  1. A question comes in

    By phone, website chat, email, or an Instagram or Facebook DM. This one is website chat.

    Hi! Do you ship to Canada? My order #1187 hasn’t shown up yet. And how much for 200 embroidered patches, 3 in.? I need them by Nov 1.

  2. It answers from your policies

    Shipping, returns and product questions come from your own FAQ and policies.

    Yes, we ship to Canada. It usually takes 7 to 12 business days.

    Source: your shipping policy

  3. It looks up the order

    It finds the order and tells the customer where it stands.

Speckle & Pine is a made-up camp-goods store. Ask its assistant, Wren, a question and watch the sources, checks and ticket appear beside the chat.

Built for online stores that answer their own email.

Online stores

It suits stores whose customers ask a lot before they buy, like patches and pins, signs, outdoor gear or wedding stationery.

Our demo is Wren, the assistant for Speckle & Pine, a made-up store that sells camp goods. It answers from the store’s own pages, looks up sample orders, drafts quotes from its price list and hands the rest to the team.

Web designers

If you build or look after stores for clients, send them our way. We build the assistant from the store’s own FAQ and policies, you stay their designer, and you get a revenue share on every store you refer.

Email us

We’ll send you a free sample built from your own store before you decide.

  1. Send us your FAQ and policies

    Shipping, returns, product info, and your price list if you quote custom orders. Links, PDFs and spreadsheets all work. Tell us how you talk to customers and what should go to a person.

  2. We build it, you test it

    We set it up in your words. Chat with it, email it and try to trip it up. Tell us what to change and we fix it.

  3. You decide

    Tell us whether it goes live, and on which channels: website chat, email or DMs.

Before you email us

Does it pretend to be a person?

No. It’s an AI and says so whenever someone asks.

What if it doesn’t know the answer?

It tells the customer it will pass the question on, and your team gets a ticket. It’s set up not to guess at prices, stock or delivery dates. A QA check compares every reply with your FAQ, policies and prices before it goes out, and sends anything it isn’t sure about to your team. For your store we can run this check with a second AI.

Which requests go to a person?

Any you name. Complaints, damaged orders and refunds are good examples.

Is the demo store real?

No. Speckle & Pine is a made-up camp-goods store we built so you can try the assistant. We set yours up with your own FAQ, policies and prices instead.

Can I try it without talking to anyone?

Yes. Chat with Wren or talk to it by voice in our demo, right in your browser. There’s nothing to sign up for.

Send us your FAQ.

Tell us what your store sells and which questions you want off your plate. We’ll send you a free sample built from your own store before you decide.
