Product questions

Answer product questions from your own catalog, day or night

Carti reads your products, pages and policies, plus your reviews once a reviews app is connected, then answers shoppers in plain words. When a shopper asks about a specific product, it checks the live price and stock before it replies.

Free plan available. 14-day free trial on paid plans. Carti reads your store on its own.
The Carti chat on an example coffee store: a shopper asks if the House Blend is a dark roast, and Carti says it is a medium roast with notes of cocoa and toasted almond, on sale for $18, with the House Blend Coffee card and its 4.8 rating.

Can Carti answer questions about my products?

Yes. Carti answers from your product details, Shopify pages, policies, store settings and FAQs, plus your reviews once a reviews app is connected. For a question about a specific product it checks the live price and stock with your store first. When your store doesn't cover a question, it's built to say it doesn't have that detail instead of guessing.

What shoppers see

Three answers, shown in the real Carti chat on an example coffee store.

1. A question about one product

A shopper asks if the House Blend is a dark roast. Carti says it is a medium roast on sale for $18 and shows the House Blend Coffee card.
Carti reads that product's live details before it answers, so the price and the sale it mentions are current.

2. An answer that quotes a review

A shopper asks if the Ethiopia Single Origin is too acidic for a dark roast drinker. Carti quotes a reviewer who usually drinks dark roast and suggests the smoother House Blend.
With a reviews app connected, Carti can quote what a customer said. Here a dark roast drinker's review settles the question.

3. When the store doesn't say

A shopper asks if the Stoneware Mug is dishwasher safe. Carti says the product page doesn't say, so it won't guess, and shares what the page does say: hand-glazed, 12 oz, keeps coffee warm longer.
The product page doesn't mention the dishwasher, so Carti says so and shares what the page does say.
