AI Chatbots

AI Ecommerce Chatbot

AI ecommerce chatbot, product recommendations, order tracking and cart recovery for Shopify and beyond. A sales associate for every visitor.

The short answer

HandsOnTech builds ecommerce chatbots for Shopify and other platforms, recommending products from live catalog data, answering sizing and shipping questions, tracking orders and recovering abandoned carts, like staffing a sales associate on every visit.

In a physical store, someone asks "what are you looking for?" Online, visitors get a search bar and silence. An ecommerce bot restores the associate: it knows the catalog, remembers the cart, answers the sizing question at 11pm, and nudges the abandoned checkout back to life.

The sales associate your store never had

In a physical store, someone greets the browser and asks what they’re looking for. Online, visitors get a search bar and silence, and the sizing doubt or shipping question that a human would answer in ten seconds becomes an abandoned cart at 11pm. An e-commerce bot restores the associate: it reads your live catalog (stock, variants, current prices, never recommending the sold-out item), turns “a gift for a runner under $50” into three on-point suggestions, answers the pre-purchase questions that kill carts, and tracks orders after the sale.

Revenue attribution you can see in the dashboard

The measurable wins cluster in three moments, and we instrument all of them: pre-purchase questions answered instantly (sizing and shipping doubts are the top cart killers), abandoned-cart recovery conversations that outperform email nudges because they can actually answer the objection, and post-purchase order tracking that frees your support inbox. Shopify integration is native (catalog, cart and order APIs) with other platforms scoped per project. You see bot-attributed revenue, recovered carts and deflected tickets in one view, so the ROI conversation is a screenshot, not a debate.

Our commitments

What you can hold us to

Not adjectives, terms. Each of these is written into the engagement before you sign.

Fixed price, in writing, before work starts

You receive a written scope with milestones, deliverables and a delivery date within 48 hours of the free audit. No hourly creep, and no change order three weeks before launch.

You own everything on final payment

Source code, Figma files, content and analytics access transfer to you when the final invoice clears. No license fees, no vendor lock-in, and no platform you can only edit by paying us.

A 30-day bug warranty, in the contract

Bugs found in the first month after go-live are fixed free. It is a contractual term rather than a sales promise, and it is the reason we would rather ship correctly than ship early.

FAQs

Common questions

Can the bot recommend products from our live inventory?

Yes, it reads your live catalog including stock, variants and pricing, so it never recommends a sold-out item or quotes yesterday's price. Recommendations come from conversational intent ("a gift for a runner, under $50") rather than crude "customers also bought" correlation.

Does an ecommerce chatbot actually increase sales?

The measurable wins come from three moments: pre-purchase questions answered instantly (sizing and shipping doubts kill carts), cart recovery conversations that outperform email nudges, and post-purchase order tracking that frees support. We instrument all three so the revenue attribution is visible in your dashboard.

What is AI Ecommerce Chatbot?

AI Ecommerce Chatbot is a scoped, fixed-price engagement from HandsOnTech, a U.S. design, development and growth studio headquartered in Sacramento, California. We map URL architecture, internal links and schema before build, tie AI chatbots work to one business metric you name, and deliver in two-week sprints with staging demos on U.S. business hours.

How much does AI ecommerce chatbot cost?

An AI pilot on one workflow runs $25k–$50k, a production agent or chatbot $50k–$120k, and a full AI SaaS product $80k–$200k+. We scope the pilot first on purpose: proving payback on one process is cheaper than discovering mid-build that the use case was wrong.

How long does AI ecommerce chatbot take?

Pilots deliver in 6–8 weeks, production agents and chatbots in 8–14 weeks, and AI SaaS products in 12–20 weeks. Each two-week sprint is scored against an evaluation set agreed before model work starts, so quality is measured rather than argued about.

Do you work with businesses across the United States?

Yes. We are headquartered at 2108 N ST STE N, Sacramento, CA 95816 and serve clients in all 50 states, remote-first, with daily overlap on Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific time. Contracts and IP assignment run through a U.S. entity, and on-site working sessions in major metros are available by arrangement.

What platform or stack do you build on?

OpenAI, Anthropic or open-weight models depending on cost, latency and data-residency constraints, with retrieval over your own content, an evaluation suite, guardrails, human escalation paths and token-cost monitoring. Model choice stays swappable so you are not locked to one vendor.

How is this different from an agency or an offshore team?

One team covers design, development and growth, so there is no handoff tax and nobody to blame. You talk to the designer and engineer doing the work instead of an account manager relaying messages. And it is contractual, not a pitch: fixed price, U.S. hours, a 30-day bug warranty and full ownership transfer on final payment.
