Adding an AI chatbot to your Shopify store can boost conversions, reduce cart abandonment, and handle customer inquiries 24/7 — all without writing a single line of code.

Why Shopify Stores Need AI Chatbots

E-commerce customers expect instant answers. Whether it's sizing questions, shipping estimates, or return policy details, a delayed response often means a lost sale. An AI chatbot provides immediate, accurate answers based on your product catalog and policies.

Step-by-Step: Adding a Chatbot to Shopify

1. Prepare Your Product Documentation

Gather product descriptions, sizing charts, shipping policies, return/refund terms, and FAQ content. Export these as PDFs or compile them into a single document.

2. Create Your Knowledge Base

In Kodda, create a new library and upload your documents. The system will automatically process and index everything for semantic search.

3. Configure the E-commerce Bot

Set a friendly, sales-oriented tone. Configure the bot to handle common e-commerce queries: product recommendations, order tracking, returns, and sizing.

4. Embed on Your Shopify Store

In Shopify Admin, go to Online Store > Themes > Edit Code. Add the Kodda embed script to your theme.liquid file before the closing </body> tag. That's it — no coding required.

E-commerce Specific Features to Configure

Product recommendations — Train the bot to suggest products based on customer descriptions
Order status lookups — Integrate with your order system for real-time tracking
Abandoned cart recovery — Program the bot to offer discounts when customers hesitate
