The Problem

Gorgias and Zendesk still need humans for voice

Gorgias voice and Zendesk Talk route to seats. Without an AI handling Shopify order lookup, WISMO, returns, and BOPIS on the call itself, your team scales by hiring — not by automation.

Linear cost-to-revenue, painful BFCM staffing

Klaviyo flows assume the conversation is one-way

Klaviyo abandoned-cart, browse-abandonment, and post-purchase flows send messages. They don't handle the shopper's reply. AI handles the two-way conversation across voice, SMS, Instagram DM, TikTok.

Recovered carts left on the table, lower LTV

Loop Returns and Yotpo Reviews need conversational entry points

Returns and review-collection conversion lifts when there's a real conversation. Loop Returns + Yotpo + Stamped + Judge.me work better when AI surfaces them in chat / voice / DM at the right moment.

Lower review collection rate, slower returns conversion

Marketplace coverage from Shopify is patchy

Shopify's Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop, Walmart Marketplace integrations don't cover message response. Sellers lose Buy Box and Etsy Star to faster responders.

Lower marketplace conversion, demoted listings

How Frontdesk Works

Built for retail brands and merchants on Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, Square, Clover — and every other major commerce platform.
