Short answer

How can I use AI to stop cart abandonment?

Your AI identifies when a customer hesitates on price during a chat. It then generates a custom Shopify discount code to nudge them toward checkout. You get a direct path from hesitation to a completed sale.

The payoff.

Where every sale lands.

Once the AI identifies a hesitant buyer, it moves toward these outcomes.

CONVERSION

Closed sales

The AI uses the discount tool to lower the barrier to entry. This turns a departing visitor into a paying customer.

DATA

Price sensitivity insights

You see exactly which products or price points cause people to stall. This helps you adjust your base pricing later.

AUTOMATION

Instant code generation

The AI handles the creation of the discount in Shopify. You don't have to manually type out codes during a live chat.

HUMAN

Escalation to you

If a customer asks for a discount higher than your set limits, the AI stops. You step in to handle the high-value negotiation.

The workflow

What your AI does when a customer hesitates.

The AI acts as a real-time sales agent that has permission to negotiate.

  1. Detect hesitation

    The AI analyzes the chat transcript to find phrases indicating price concern. It recognizes when a user is looking for a better deal.
