Distro CustomerBot: AI Powered Support Agent

Executive Summary

Embedded directly into e-commerce platforms, CustomerBot delivers instant, personalized answers about products, pricing, availability, recommendations, and order status, reducing support overhead while elevating the customer experience.

AI-Powered E-Commerce Support Assistant

Modern customers expect distributors to act not just as order-takers, but as trusted advisors for complex projects. This creates major challenges:

  • Customers require deep product knowledge from specs, certifications, and side-by-side comparisons.

  • They want real-time availability and pricing transparency, not next-day callbacks.

  • They expect recommendations and substitutions when products are out of stock or delayed.

  • They want instant order visibility from confirmation to delivery tracking.

Meeting these demands consumes valuable sales rep time, pulling them away from higher-value tasks like closing deals and building relationships.

Distro CustomerBot solves this by acting as a 24/7 generative support assistant, grounded in ERP, supplier, and logistics data.
