Help hesitant shoppers while they're still on your store
When a shopper hesitates over a product or their cart, Carti starts the conversation with a question about what they're looking at. It's on from day one, and you choose how often it speaks up.

What is proactive chat in Carti?
Carti notices when a shopper might need help and opens with a short question about what they're looking at. It speaks up sparingly, never on checkout or account pages, and you decide how soon and how often.

Common questions
Will proactive messages annoy my shoppers?
No. Carti speaks up sparingly, never on checkout or account pages, and each message is about what the shopper is looking at. You can switch most moments off or make Carti wait longer before it speaks up.
Who writes the messages?
Carti writes each opener to fit the page the shopper is on, so there's nothing for you to write. For shoppers heading for the exit, you can add an optional discount line with your own code and text.
Can Carti follow up after a shopper leaves?
Through Klaviyo, if you use it. Carti shares chat activity with it, so your own flows can follow up with shoppers Klaviyo already knows. Back on your store, Carti welcomes returning shoppers to their cart.
Do proactive messages use up my AI conversations?
A proactive message on its own doesn't. It counts toward your plan's monthly AI conversations once the shopper replies and Carti answers. If you reach your plan's limit, proactive messages pause until the next cycle or an upgrade.
Will Carti offer discounts to hesitant shoppers?
Only if you set one up. Carti shares only the codes you choose to offer, and the exit discount line stays off until you turn it on and add your own code.
