IN SHORT

What is an OpenCart AI assistant?

An OpenCart AI assistant is software that connects to your e-commerce site built with OpenCart and answers customer messages by checking the product and order information in your store. In Avosist the connection is made through a small module you install in your store.

The module only reads: the assistant takes product, price, stock and order information from your store when the question arrives. Because your OpenCart server is on your own hosting, only Avosist’s server address is allowed to use the connection.

OpenCart 3 and 4
There is a separate connection module for each version; you download it from the panel.
Name, model or stock code
Finds the product by its name, description, model code or stock code.
Discounted price
If the product has a discounted price defined, it tells the customer that price.
Order lookup
Finds the status of the order by order number or phone.

SETUP

How do you connect an OpenCart store to Avosist?

Three steps. You do not need to touch your theme files.

  1. Install the connection module

    Download the module package for your OpenCart version (3.x or 4.x) from the Avosist panel. Upload it on the Extensions → Installer screen in your OpenCart admin panel and enable the module.

  2. Create an API user

    In OpenCart, create an API user under System → Users → APIs and add Avosist’s server IP address, shown in the panel, to the allowed list. Enter your store address, the API username and the key into Avosist.

  3. Connect your channel and try it

    Connect WhatsApp, Instagram, Messenger or web chat. On the test screen ask about a product or an order number as a customer would; switch the assistant on after you have seen the answer.

WHAT IT DOES

What does an OpenCart AI assistant do?

The four questions a business with an OpenCart store gets most often, and how the assistant handles each.

01

Answers product and price questions by checking your OpenCart store

When a customer asks about a product the assistant searches product names and descriptions in your OpenCart store. It says the current price, the discounted price if one is defined, and whether the product is in stock; it sends the link to the product page.

  • Search in product name and description
  • Discounted price if one is defined
  • A product page link for the customer who is ready to buy
WhatsAppExample conversation

Customer: How much is the 5 litre olive oil?

OpenCart store checked · discounted price

Assistant: Our 5 litre cold-pressed olive oil is on offer at the moment, 1,850 TL and in stock.

Cold-Pressed Olive Oil · 5 L In stock 1,850 TL Product page →

02

Finds the product by model or stock code

When a customer writes the model code or stock code of a product the assistant finds that product directly. If the code is not in the catalogue it says so; it does not present a similar product as if it were the one asked for.

  • Search by model code and stock code
  • Does not present a product it could not find
  • Does not say how many are left, only the stock status
InstagramExample conversation

Customer: Do you have the product with code ZY-500?

Searched by model code · matched

Assistant: ZY-500 is our 500 ml olive oil in a glass bottle. It is 290 TL and in stock.

03

Reports the status of an order

When a customer asks about an order the assistant asks for the order number or phone and writes the status of the order in OpenCart. The carrier and tracking number are shared if your store writes them into the order history as a note.

  • Lookup by order number or phone
  • On WhatsApp the number the customer writes from is used automatically
  • Tracking details are shared if they were written into the order history
Web ChatbotExample conversation

Customer: Has my order been shipped?

Assistant: Let me check. Could you send your order number?

Customer: 3157

OpenCart order looked up · shipped

Assistant: Your order has been shipped.

04

Hands over what it cannot settle

When a return, a damaged product or a matter beyond the assistant’s knowledge comes up, the conversation is handed to your team and a notification goes out. The team continues in the same conversation; automated replies stop while you write.

  • Does not guess on a matter it does not know
  • You set the hand-over conditions
  • The customer does not have to explain again
