Overview
What is WelloChat?
WelloChat is an AI chatbot for Shopify that works like a sales associate on every page of your store. It reads your live product catalog and store policies, answers shopper questions in seconds, recommends the right products, adds them to the cart, and starts checkout without the shopper leaving the conversation.
Unlike support-first tools such as Tidio or Gorgias, WelloChat is built to sell. It also handles the questions that fill your inbox (shipping, returns, sizing, and “where is my order?”), and when a shopper wants a person, you or your team can take over the chat live with the full conversation in view.
