The Challenge

Retail customer service is dominated by questions the retailer has already answered thousands of times (where is my order, do you have this in my size, what is your returns policy), and every one of them costs money to answer through a human agent.

  • 160-80% of inquiries routine and repetitive, yet handled at full agent cost
  • 2$8-12 cost per human-handled customer interaction
  • 3Cart abandonment near 70%, much of it from unanswered pre-purchase questions

Our Approach

CloudGate deploys a retail assistant that resolves routine inquiries automatically in Arabic and English, integrates with POS, inventory and order systems so it can answer stock and order questions with real data, and makes personalized product recommendations from the shopper's history and context.

  • Automated resolution of 60-80% of routine inquiries across channels
  • Native Arabic and English support including dialect
  • Live POS, inventory and order management integration for real answers
