What Clients Say

"Before AIQ's voice agent, we'd miss 50 calls every evening from folks asking about our natural dog treats during dinner rushes. Now, it handles 80% of those right away with stock updates, and we've added $12K in monthly revenue from what used to be voicemail ghosts—especially from impulse add-ons like chew toys. Game-changer for our small team during peak adoption months."

Sarah Jenkins

Owner, Paws & Claws Pet Shop (independent chain with 3 locations in suburban areas)

"During last holiday season's Black Friday surge, our agent fielded 300+ queries on festive pet sweaters non-stop from 6 PM to midnight. It even integrated with our Shopify system to say when items were low and suggest alternatives—saved us from overpromising. Sales jumped 28% that month, and customers love the always-open feel for last-minute gift shopping."

Mike Rivera

Store Manager, Furry Friends Boutique (specialty e-commerce hybrid in urban pet district)

"We were losing 40% of weekend business to online sellers like Chewy because no one answered about grooming add-ons during family outings. The custom AI they built responds just like our staff, with details on our organic shampoos and booking slots—it's cut our missed opportunities in half since launch two months ago, boosting weekend revenue by $8K."

Lisa Chen

Co-Owner, Whisker Haven (boutique focusing on eco-friendly pet supplies with online fulfillment)

Simple 3-Step Process

Step 1

Discovery & Customization

We dive into your pet store's workflow—your top products, busy seasons, and customer quirks—to design an AI agent that's a perfect fit, not some off-the-shelf template.

Step 2

Build & Integrate

Our engineers craft the voice AI with your branding, linking it seamlessly to your e-commerce platform and inventory for real-time, accurate responses.

Why We're Different

We build from scratch using advanced code, not no-code patches, so your AI voice agent scales with your growing pet product line without breaking.
True ownership means no endless subscriptions—you own the system, integrated deeply into your store's ops, unlike rented bots that lock you in.

Engineers who get e-commerce: We've deployed voice AI in 50+ stores, fixing real issues like inventory syncs that assemblers overlook.

Custom UIs let you monitor calls and insights in one dashboard, ditching the tool-juggling nightmare of typical agencies.

Ongoing optimization based on your metrics, not one-size-fits-all updates, keeps it aligned with your unique customer base.
Born from our own frustrations with disconnected tools, we deliver unified systems that empower your store, not dependency.

Common Questions

How does the AI voice agent handle specific pet product questions?

Our agents are trained on your full catalog, so when a customer calls about grain-free kibble options, it pulls details like ingredients, sizes, and pricing right from your inventory system. We customize the knowledge base during setup to include nuances, like allergy warnings or breed-specific recommendations. It's not generic—think of it as your digital shelf stocker, always ready with accurate info. Plus, it learns from interactions to get even better over time, ensuring responses feel as tailored as a custom collar. Pet store owners tell us this cuts down on follow-up calls by half.

What if a call needs a human touch, like for upset customers?

Seamless handoffs are built-in. If the AI detects frustration—say, over a delayed toy shipment—it politely transfers to your on-call staff with full context, like the call history and order details. No starting from scratch. We've designed it for pet retail realities, where emotions run high with things like lost packages of live fish food. In testing with similar stores, 90% of calls resolve without escalation, but when needed, it's smooth as a well-groomed pup. You control the thresholds for handover too.

Can it integrate with my existing pet store software?

Absolutely, we specialize in deep integrations with tools like Shopify, WooCommerce, or even pet-specific systems like your grooming scheduler. For example, it can check stock levels live during a call about cat litter brands, then process the sale directly. No more manual updates. Our team maps your workflow first, ensuring the AI slots in without disrupting operations. One client synced it with their POS in under a week, and now they handle 24/7 reorders effortlessly. It's custom-built, so it fits your setup like a glove.

How do we ensure the voice sounds right for our brand?

We craft the personality to match your store's vibe—warm and enthusiastic for a family pet shop, or knowledgeable and calm for specialty wellness spots. Using advanced synthesis, voices can sound like upbeat millennials or seasoned pros. We include sample scripts based on your real customer chats, then refine with your feedback. Imagine it greeting with 'How's your furry friend today?' to build rapport. Clients rave about how it feels like an extension of their team, boosting trust and turning one-off callers into regulars.

What about costs during slow seasons for my pet store?

Unlike staffing up for peaks only to pay idle time off-season, our AI runs efficiently year-round without variable costs. You pay once for the custom build, then minimal maintenance. It scales automatically—handling 10 calls a day in January or 200 in December for holiday treats. We've helped stores cut call-related expenses by 40%, freeing budget for inventory like spring flea preventives. No surprises; we provide clear pricing upfront, tailored to your volume, so it's always a smart investment.

Is the AI secure for handling customer pet health queries?

Security is non-negotiable, especially with sensitive topics like diet advice. We use encrypted channels and comply with standards like GDPR, ensuring call data stays protected. The agent never gives medical advice— it directs to vets if needed—but for product queries, it references only verified info from your store. Recordings are optional and stored securely. Pet businesses using our system report zero breaches, and we audit regularly. Think of it as a loyal guard dog for your customer data.
