What we build
AI Agents for e-commerce, specifically.
- 01
Order status and delivery exceptions
Reads the live carrier status, explains what actually happened, and offers the right remedy — reship, refund, or wait — according to your policy rather than the model's judgement.
- 02
Returns and exchanges
Checks eligibility against your rules, issues the label, and books the exchange against real stock, so the customer isn't promised a size that sold out yesterday.
- 03
Pre-purchase product questions
Answers fit, compatibility and materials from the catalogue and your reviews, with the source shown — the questions that decide whether a cart converts.
What we measure
- Full-resolution rate without human touch
- CSAT on agent-handled versus human-handled conversations
- Contact rate per hundred orders
- Cost per resolved conversation
Instrumented in week one and reported weekly. These are the numbers the engagement is judged on — not a forecast of what they'll be.
Constraints
What has to be true in e-commerce.
- 01
The catalogue is the ground truth
Answers about price, stock and fit come from your product data at query time, never from what the model remembers about a product from training. Out-of-stock claims are a refund conversation later.
- 02
Peak traffic is a design input
Sale-day load is where naive AI support falls over and where costs spike hardest. We put rate limits, caching and per-conversation cost ceilings in before launch, not after the first invoice.
- 03
Returns policy is policy, not vibes
Eligibility is evaluated by your rules engine, with the agent explaining the outcome. A model improvising goodwill on returns is an unbudgeted liability.
How it runs
The AI Agents engagement, step by step.
- 1
Use-case scoping
Pick the workflow with the strongest ROI. Define success metrics, guardrails, and integration points.
- 2
Tools & memory
Connect the agent to your real systems — CRM, helpdesk, data warehouse, internal APIs — with auth and audit trails.
- 3
Eval suite
Build a versioned eval set from real conversations so we can prove the agent improves before each release.
- 4
Pilot with humans
Shadow mode → suggested replies → autonomous on low-risk tasks. Humans stay in the loop where it matters.
- 5
Production scale
Monitoring, fallbacks, cost guards, and observability. Weekly improvement cycles based on production data.

FAQ
AI customer service agents for e-commerce: your questions.
How does it handle sale-day spikes?
Queueing and graceful degradation are part of the build: under load it prioritises order-status intents, which is the bulk of spike traffic, and defers anything expensive. Capacity is tested against your last peak, not a synthetic benchmark.
Can it handle WhatsApp and Instagram DMs?
Yes — same agent, same tools, same escalation rules across channels. Keeping one behaviour set is the point; per-channel bots drift apart within a quarter.
How is this different from a chatbot?
Chatbots reply. Agents act. Our agents call APIs, update records, send emails, schedule meetings — with audit logs and rollback. They take actions in your systems, not just respond in a chat window.
Which LLMs do you use?
We pick the right model for the task — Claude Sonnet/Opus for reasoning, GPT-4o for tool use, Llama / open-weights when data residency demands it. We're not locked into any vendor and we'll tell you what's cheapest at your volume.
