Can AI answer product questions?
Yes. ShopIQ can help answer product-related questions using available product catalog and store information where supported. AI can assist with customer questions such as "Is this available in medium?", "What is the material?", "Do you have this in red?", "What products are under ₹999?", or "Which jewelry set is best for weddings?"
AI-assisted product replies consume AI credits where they use AI-powered workflows.

Can AI answer questions from WhatsApp customers?
ShopIQ supports WhatsApp commerce workflows, and AI-assisted customer replies may be available depending on the merchant's setup. Where configured, AI can help draft or provide responses for product questions coming through WhatsApp. Merchants should monitor replies and review important conversations.
Can AI recommend products?
Yes, AI can help suggest products based on available catalog information and customer context where supported. For example: "Recommend sarees for a wedding guest.", "Suggest earrings for festive wear.", "Show budget-friendly products.", or "Suggest skincare products for a beginner routine." Merchants should ensure product recommendations are accurate and suitable.
Can AI answer questions about stock?
AI may answer stock-related questions if accurate stock data is available and connected to the relevant workflow. Merchants should keep inventory updated because incorrect stock information can create customer dissatisfaction. The merchant remains responsible for inventory accuracy.
Can AI answer questions about pricing and offers?
AI can help answer pricing and offer questions using available product and campaign data. Merchants should ensure prices, discounts, coupon terms, and offer validity are correctly configured. Incorrect price communication can affect customer trust and order handling.
Can AI answer questions about shipping and returns?
AI can help answer shipping and return questions using available store policy content where configured. Merchants should keep policy pages updated including Shipping Policy, Return Policy, Refund Policy, Terms & Conditions, and Privacy Policy. The merchant remains responsible for policy accuracy and customer communication.
Can AI answer every product question correctly?
No. AI depends on available data and may make mistakes if product details are incomplete, outdated, unclear, or missing. Merchants should review AI replies for important questions involving pricing, stock, refunds, returns, warranty, delivery timelines, high-value products, B2B negotiations, custom orders, or legal claims.
How can I improve AI answer quality?
Merchants can improve AI answer quality by keeping catalog and store information accurate — updating product descriptions, product variants, prices, stock availability, category names, product tags, policy pages, shipping information, return and refund rules, and product specifications. AI works best when the store data is complete and structured.
Important things to know
AI can help merchants respond faster, but the merchant remains responsible for all customer-facing communication. Merchants should not allow inaccurate, misleading, or unverified answers to guide customer purchases.
