Why does an AI shopping assistant matter?

Shoppers frequently abandon their carts when they have unanswered questions about sizing, shipping, returns, or product details. An AI shopping assistant removes this friction by providing immediate, helpful responses at any time of day or night.


For brands, this means fewer abandoned carts, higher conversion rates, and reduced support ticket volume. The assistant doesn’t just answer questions—it actively guides customers toward purchases with intelligent product recommendations based on their browsing history and past purchases.

Why choose Klaviyo for your AI shopping assistant?

Data-powered personalisation

Customer Agent connects to each shopper’s Klaviyo profile, accessing their purchase history, browsing behaviour, and preferences. This allows it to provide personalised product recommendations and contextual support that feels tailored to each individual customer.

Conversation-to-conversion focus

Customer Agent is built specifically for B2C commerce. It’s designed not just to deflect support tickets, but to actively drive sales through intelligent product suggestions, cross-selling opportunities, and guided shopping experiences.

Seamless omnichannel support

Provide consistent assistance across web chat, SMS, and email channels. When escalation to a human agent is needed, the full conversation history transfers seamlessly, so customers never have to repeat themselves.

WISMO automation

One of the most common customer support questions is, “Where is my order?” Klaviyo’s Customer Agent can instantly answer these WISMO (Where is my order) inquiries by pulling real-time order status information. This not only improves the customer experience with fast, accurate updates, but also reduces the volume of repetitive support tickets, freeing your team to focus on higher-value interactions.
