Product support

AI product support with knowledge base and workflows

Zynli helps ecommerce and SMB teams automate product support questions — which product is right for me, is this compatible, what are the dimensions, is it in stock — using your product documentation, catalog data, and human handoff for complex pre-sales or technical questions.

Who this is for

This page is for stores and SMB teams that answer product questions daily — sizing, compatibility, materials, availability — and want consistent answers grounded in documentation.

  • Ecommerce stores with detailed product catalogs and FAQs
  • Support teams handling pre-sales and product comparison questions
  • Teams with product data accessible via API for live availability checks
  • Stores that need sales or technical escalation for complex product questions

Common product support questions

  • Which product is right for me?
  • Is this item compatible with X?
  • What are the product dimensions or materials?
  • Is this item in stock or available in another size?
  • What's the difference between these two products?

How Zynli handles product workflows

1. Intent recognition

Product questions route to a dedicated agent — sizing, compatibility, availability, and comparisons each have defined paths.

2. Knowledge base usage

Product specs, sizing guides, compatibility charts, and FAQ content retrieved via RAG from your crawled site or uploaded docs.

3. API workflow actions

Check stock levels, variant availability, and product attributes when your catalog API exposes them.

4. Escalation or human handoff

Complex technical questions, custom configurations, and high-value pre-sales inquiries route to sales or support with full context.

Operational value

  • Fewer repetitive sizing and compatibility tickets
  • Faster, more consistent product answers across your team
  • Better pre-sales support without hiring more agents
  • Easier escalation for technical or custom product questions

Works with your product data

Connect Zynli with your store, backend, or APIs to automate ecommerce support workflows. Connect product catalog APIs, PIM systems, or WooCommerce product endpoints via Actions & Flows for live availability and variant lookups.

Support workflows you can automate

Configure AI support for orders, shipping, returns, billing, and product questions — grounded in your knowledge base and connected to your APIs.

Product Agent

Product specs, availability, sizing, and compatibility.

Example questions

  • · Which size should I buy?
  • · Is this compatible with X?
  • · Do you have this in stock?

Example actions

  • · Answer from product knowledge base
  • · Compare product variants
  • · Route to sales for custom orders

AI resolves most issues. Agents handle the rest.

When automation can't resolve an issue — damaged goods, billing disputes, or policy exceptions — escalate to a human agent with full thread history and optional ticket creation.

  • Low-confidence answers trigger handoff automatically
  • Agents see chat history, citations, and workflow run logs
  • Escalations become numbered tickets on your kanban board
  • Customers track progress via magic-link portal
