Deploy WhatsApp e-commerce agents that recover abandoned checkouts, answer real sizing and product questions in-thread, and hand off a pre-loaded one-tap checkout link.
The Recovery Pipeline
Trigger, generate customized visual recommendations, and recover checkouts dynamically.
Triggers when a customer abandons checkout, capturing variant items, quantities, and buyer parameters.
Generates custom recommendation images and recovery discounts matching the abandoned catalog items.
Sends a custom WhatsApp recovery message, answering variant sizing or price questions autonomously in the same thread.
Generates a pre-loaded checkout link with the variant and code, logging the full conversation for attribution.
Technical Features
Sends recovery messages strictly to users who opt in to WhatsApp alerts during checkout, respecting privacy and marketing consent laws.
Maintains chat history across turns, allowing buyers to adjust order variables directly via text without restarting the conversation.
Integrates with official WhatsApp Business API gateways for robust, high-deliverability messaging rather than unofficial workarounds.
Beyond cart recovery, the same conversational channel handles delivery updates, review requests, and reorder prompts.
Walkthrough
A customer adds a jacket to cart, selects a size, but abandons at the shipping step.
20 minutes later, the agent sends a WhatsApp message with a personalized image of the item and a 10% recovery code.
The customer replies asking if the jacket runs small — the agent answers using your actual sizing data for that specific SKU.
Satisfied with the answer, the customer requests the checkout link directly in the same thread.
The agent sends a pre-loaded checkout URL with the variant, size, and discount code already applied for one-tap payment.
