Transform Your Hardware Store's Customer Interaction on WhatsApp

Stay connected with every customer, day or night.

Picture this: a local hardware store in Milimani receives a WhatsApp message at 10pm from a painter needing quick access to your paint stock. With your staff off duty, potential sales can slip through the cracks. Our WhatsApp AI bot captures those messages, providing instant replies about stock availability and delivery options, even when you’re closed. Just last week, customers in Kondele were inquiring about special paint finishes for their projects, and our bot ensured no queries were left unanswered. By integrating with your existing tools, like Xero for pricing and Fresha for appointment bookings, we help you manage all customer interactions seamlessly, even exchanging photos of products right in the chat. Your team can focus on what they do best while we handle the rest.
