Enhancing User Experience on a Global E-Commerce Platform
Challenge
The e-commerce platform sought to enhance its user experience across diverse regions. Despite a growing global user base, instances of users getting stuck while performing crucial transactions on-site due to a lack of real-time assistance to manoeuvre them to advanced stages were experienced. This challenge needed a prioritized focus to avoid stagnancy in user base growth and negative sentiment towards the platform.

Synergy Technologies partnered with the e-commerce platform to address these challenges by implementing a real-time Al-driven solution. The solution involved integrating a knowledge-based chatbot powered by OpenAl, facilitated through Zapier. This chatbot was designed to provide instant, accurate, and context-aware responses to user queries in multiple languages, ensuring a seamless and user-friendly experience regardless of geographical location.
The integration process was carefully coordinated to align with the platform's existing architecture, ensuring minimal disruption during deployment.
