Description
Microsoft has introduced Copilot Checkout and Brand Agents, innovative AI-enhanced commerce features aimed at streamlining the customer journey from exploration to purchase, allowing users to discover, evaluate, and finalize transactions within an AI chat without leaving the conversation, all while ensuring that merchants retain oversight of the sale and customer interactions. The Copilot Checkout feature integrates a seamless conversational shopping and payment process into the Microsoft Copilot AI platform, enabling customers to inquire about products, receive tailored recommendations, compare choices, and finalize purchases directly within the chat interface, eliminating the need for redirects and enhancing the user experience, with payment processing managed through established partners such as PayPal, Shopify, and Stripe. Additionally, Brand Agents serve as AI-driven shopping assistants that merchants can implement on their own websites, initially through platforms like Shopify and Microsoft Clarity, to offer personalized brand-centric conversational support, address customer inquiries in the brand’s unique tone, and assist visitors in navigating inventory and overcoming concerns. This combination of tools not only enhances the shopping experience but also empowers brands to maintain their identity and engage customers more effectively.
Description
A shopper types "wireless mouse, ergonomic, under 40, USB-C receiver" and your search returns 50 mice sorted by price. None match all four criteria.
Emporiqa is AI chat that sells before the purchase and serves after it. Before the purchase it understands what the shopper means, finds matching products in your catalog (from words or a photo), compares two or more with real prices and stock, and adds the pick to the cart without leaving the conversation. After the purchase it answers delivery and return questions from your own pages and shows order status as an order card. Ready-made rules collect requests like returns and invoices and email them to your team; the chat never refunds or cancels an order itself.
When a shopper needs a person, your team takes over the chat, and the full history is already on screen. A conversation is billed once, at the shopper's first message, so bringing in a person adds no second charge. Voice is optional. You get ratings, unanswered questions, and the revenue from chats that led to purchases.
Official plugins for WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, Drupal Commerce, Sylius, Shopware 6. Pay-as-you-go: $0.25 per conversation after a $25 signup credit (about 100 conversations), a monthly limit you set, no seat fees. A conversation counts only when a shopper writes to the chat, so a quiet month costs nothing. Free signup at emporiqa.com.
