Overview

Product recommendations, order tracking, and abandoned-cart recovery for a Shopify store.

The Challenge

Urban Goods Co. had a growing Shopify store but struggled with high cart abandonment rates and a support team overwhelmed by repetitive product and order questions. They needed a way to guide shoppers to the right products and recover lost sales without hiring more staff.

Our Solution

We deployed ShopAssist, an AI sales chatbot trained on their full product catalog using LangChain and Pinecone for semantic search. The bot recommends products based on shopper preferences, tracks orders in real time via the Shopify API, and triggers personalized abandoned-cart recovery messages. It was embedded directly into their Shopify theme with no redesign.
