AI Shopping Helpers

Q How does Telegram AI Helpers work?
AI Shopping Helpers creates an AI-powered bot on Telegram that represents your brand. It can answer customer questions, recommend products, send promotional campaigns, and provide analytics—all automatically. You simply connect your product catalog, set your brand personality, and let the AI handle customer interactions 24/7.
Q What ecommerce platforms are supported?
We support Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, and most major ecommerce platforms. You can also add custom products manually or via CSV upload if you use a custom solution or don't have an existing store.
Q How does product search work?
Customers can search through your entire product catalog using natural language. They can ask questions like "show me red running shoes under $100" or "what's good for sensitive skin?" Your AI understands the intent and finds matching products, then provides personalized recommendations based on customer preferences and behavior.
Q Can I add a knowledge base to help the AI?
Yes! You can upload files (PDFs, documents, product manuals) or add text directly to your knowledge base. Your AI learns from everything you upload, including product specifications, shipping policies, return information, sizing guides, FAQs, care instructions, and more. This helps the AI answer complex questions and provide detailed, accurate information about your brand.
Q Can I customize the AI's personality?
Yes! You can define your bot's tone, brand guidelines, FAQs, and personality traits. You can make it professional, casual, fun, or match any brand voice you want. You approve all major decisions before going live.
Q How accurate are the AI responses?
Our AI is trained on your specific product catalog and brand information, resulting in highly accurate responses. The system learns from interactions and improves over time. You can review conversations and provide feedback to further train the AI.
Q Can customers make purchases directly in Telegram?
Yes! Customers can browse products, get recommendations, and receive checkout links directly in Telegram. We integrate with your existing checkout system, so there's no need to rebuild anything.
Q How do promotional campaigns work?
You can create and schedule promotional blasts to your subscriber list directly through Telegram. Set the message, timing, audience segments, and the bot sends it automatically. You can also create questionnaires to collect customer preferences.
Q What kind of analytics do I get?
You get detailed analytics including chat transcripts, common queries, search intent, link clicks, conversion tracking, user demographics, campaign performance, and ROI attribution. All data is available in real-time through your dashboard.
Q What's the open rate on Telegram compared to email?
Telegram messages typically see 80%+ open rates compared to 15-25% for email. This is because Telegram messages appear as push notifications and aren't filtered as spam.
Q Can I use this for customer support?
Absolutely! Many brands use Telegram AI Helpers as their primary customer support channel. The AI handles common questions 24/7, and you can take over manually for complex issues.
Q Is there a limit on the number of products I can add?
No! You can add unlimited products to your catalog. The AI can handle product libraries of any size.
