AI agent for sales on WhatsApp

An AI agent answers product and delivery questions in a business WhatsApp conversation and prepares the next step for the customer or your team.

The customer context

I'd like Run shoes, one pair in size 41 and one in size 43.

Customers often check several details before ordering. Telp connects the questions to your offer and preserves context for staff decisions.

What remains after the conversation

The AI agent created order PR-222 with two sizes, contact details and the collection choice. Payment has not been taken.

From a question to the next step

  1. 01

    The customer starts a conversation.

  2. 02

    Telp checks selections and required information.

  3. 03

    Purchase or handoff follows the configured process.

Connect pre-purchase questions to your actual range

In a WhatsApp conversation, the AI agent clarifies the item, quantity and what the customer needs before proceeding. Prices, options and conditions should come from approved sources. A practical example is WooCommerce support on WhatsApp.

The agent and employees operate within the business channel's rules. Connecting it does not permit unlimited messages or campaigns. For conditions and operation, see the WhatsApp Business channel.

The customer adds another item

The agent clarifies the final selection and quantities. Adding something in the conversation does not automatically confirm that an order has changed.

Sales needs to reply later

Follow-up depends on the channel's current rules. An earlier conversation should not be presented as permission for unrestricted later contact.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can staff continue the conversation?

Yes, through the connected Telp inbox channel, subject to the channel reply rules.

Does it use an employee's personal WhatsApp?

This flow uses a connected WhatsApp Business channel. Personal conversations on an employee's phone are not automatically part of the Telp inbox.

Can the agent check several products in one enquiry?

It can clarify products and quantities using the connected range. The eventual purchase depends on permitted actions and a verified flow.

Does catalog access enable payment in WhatsApp?

Not by itself. Looking up products, creating an order and paying are different steps, not one automatic action.

Can it send promotional messages to everyone?

No. This scenario handles customer enquiries under business-channel rules. It does not represent mass campaigns or contacting people without an appropriate basis.

What should we prepare before enabling it?

A current range, delivery rules, required request details and human handoff conditions. Check the channel's own restrictions and costs as well.
