ShopChat

Overview

ShopChat adds an AI-powered chat widget to your WooCommerce store. Customers ask questions in natural language - about products, orders, shipping, and returns - and the AI responds using live data from your catalog. ShopChat reads your WooCommerce product database in real time, so answers about prices, availability, and specifications are always current.

             AI response with:
             • Product cards
             • Direct add-to-cart links
             • Order status info
             • Policy answers

ShopChat requires WooCommerce. It is not a general-purpose chatbot - its capabilities are focused on WooCommerce product discovery, order support, and returns assistance.
