Turn Website Visitors into Loyal Customers with AI Chatbots
Stop losing revenue to missed calls and unanswered DMs. Our AI chatbots integrate with your POS to handle inventory checks, order tracking, and loyalty rewards 24/7.
In the boutique and high-end retail sector, personalized service is everything, yet shop owners miss approximately 40% of phone calls while assisting in-store customers. When a potential buyer calls to ask if a specific size is in stock or to check the status of a special order, a missed call often results in a lost sale ranging from $100 to $500. For a boutique in Westlake Village or anywhere nationwide, these missed connections represent thousands in lost monthly revenue.
Read Laboratories bridges this gap by deploying intelligent AI agents that sync directly with your existing retail stack. Whether you use Shopify POS, Square, or Lightspeed, our chatbots provide real-time answers about product availability and shipping status. By automating these repetitive inquiries, your floor staff can focus on the customers physically in the shop, while your digital presence continues to close sales and capture leads around the clock.
Problems We Solve
High Volume of Inventory Inquiries
Boutique staff often spend hours answering 'Do you have this in a size 6?' over the phone. Our AI syncs with your POS to provide instant, accurate inventory answers.
Missed Sales During Peak Hours
When the shop is busy, phones go unanswered. The AI chatbot captures these leads, providing product details and saving the sale before the customer clicks away.
Manual Special Order Tracking
Stop manually texting customers about special orders. The AI allows customers to check their own order status using their email or order number securely.
Loyalty Program Friction
Many customers forget their point balances. Our AI integrates with your loyalty software to tell customers exactly what rewards they have available to spend.
Inconsistent Event Promotion
Ensure every visitor knows about your upcoming trunk shows or seasonal sales. The AI proactively announces events based on user behavior and browsing history.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the AI know exactly what is in my physical store?
Yes. By integrating with your POS systems like Square or Shopify, the AI pulls real-time inventory levels so it never promises a product that isn't actually on your shelves.
Is it difficult to set up with my current website?
Not at all. Read Laboratories handles the full technical implementation. Usually, it requires just a single line of code added to your header, which we can do for you.
How does the AI handle complex questions about fabric or fit?
We train the AI on your specific brand voice and product catalog. If it encounters a question it can't answer, it gracefully collects the customer's info and notifies your team.
Is the chatbot compliant with consumer privacy laws?
Absolutely. We ensure all data collection is transparent and compliant with state-specific regulations and PCI DSS standards for any payment-related interactions.
Can the AI promote our upcoming seasonal sales?
Yes, we can program 'proactive triggers' where the AI mentions specific promotions, discount codes, or upcoming in-store events to visitors after they spend a certain amount of time on a page.
What happens if a customer wants to talk to a human?
The AI includes a 'Live Chat' handoff feature. If your staff is available, they can take over the conversation instantly from a mobile app or desktop dashboard.
