Never lose an order inquiry in a busy chat again.

The problem

Orders and questions arrive across chats all day. Some get missed, pending orders are forgotten, and nobody has a clear end-of-day picture.

Who it's for

  • Online sellers taking orders on WhatsApp
  • Retailers with a sales team on chat
  • Restaurants and home-based businesses

Key features

  • Capture customer and order details into a structured list
  • Structure incoming order information consistently
  • Track pending orders and their age
  • Remind staff about unanswered inquiries
  • Send order confirmations through supported integrations
  • Produce daily order summaries

    Order chats are exported or posted to a webhook

  2. 2

    Orders are structured and validated

  3. 3

    Unanswered inquiries older than your limit are flagged

  4. 4

    Staff receive a reminder email

Configuration requirements
