Project Overview
Retail brands increasingly engage customers through messaging platforms, with WhatsApp becoming a primary channel for order inquiries, product questions, delivery updates, and post-purchase support. Manual handling of WhatsApp messages leads to delayed responses, inconsistent communication, and operational inefficiencies.
We developed a WhatsApp-Based Order & Support Bot that uses AI-driven conversational automation to manage customer interactions directly on WhatsApp. The bot handles order-related queries, product discovery, and support workflows while integrating seamlessly with retail systems.

These challenges impacted customer experience and support efficiency.
