This WooCommerce-integrated chatbot is designed to transform post-sales customer support by combining automation and artificial intelligence to deliver fast, secure, and personalized assistance.
The chatbot retrieves real-time order information, including shipping details and tracking numbers, after verifying the customer's identity through a strict email-based authentication system.
Beyond order management, the chatbot answers frequently asked questions about return policies, delivery times, and terms of service using RAG.
If a request is too complex, the system seamlessly escalates it to a human operator via Telegram, guaranteeing no customer query goes unresolved.
