The POWR AI Shopping Assistant helps you turn more browsers into buyers by answering your shoppers' questions, recommending the right products, and guiding them to checkout — all in real time, and all without writing a single line of code.
It lives as a friendly chat bubble on your Shopify storefront. Your shoppers simply tap it, ask whatever's on their mind in plain language, and get instant, helpful answers — just like having a knowledgeable salesperson on hand around the clock.
What It Does
The assistant chats with your shoppers in natural language and helps them move from "just looking" to "ready to buy." Here's what it can do:
- Answer product questions — sizes, materials, features, and more, drawn straight from your store.
- Recommend products — a shopper can ask for something like "a gift under $50" and get tailored suggestions.
- Check variants and availability — sizes, colors, and what's currently in stock.
- Share store information — details that live in your product catalog and store content.
- Add items to the cart — right inside the conversation.
- Guide shoppers to checkout — so they can finish their purchase with less friction.
Because it draws on your live Shopify product catalog, store content, and inventory, every answer reflects your real store as it is right now.
It's also built to be honest. If the assistant doesn't know something — like the status of a specific order — it says so and points the shopper to your support, rather than making something up.
Beyond the chat itself, the assistant includes a couple of helpful extras:
- Nudges — gentle, proactive prompts that invite shoppers to start chatting at the right moment, such as when they seem to need a hand.
- Pills — tappable suggested chips inside the chat (including ready-made conversation starters) that make it easy for shoppers to get going.
You're in control of how it looks and feels. You can customize the colors, name, and welcome message right in the app, then enable it on your store — no coding required.
Common Use Cases
The assistant shines anywhere a quick, helpful answer can keep a sale moving forward:
- Turn browsers into buyers by answering pre-purchase questions instantly, before doubt creeps in.
- Help shoppers find the right product faster with personalized recommendations.
- Reduce "where do I find X" friction by surfacing the right info from your catalog and content.
- Offer help at moments of hesitation — for example, when a shopper has a busy cart and could use a little reassurance.
Getting started
The assistant is free during early access and available for Shopify stores. Setup takes just a few minutes, with no code involved.
