Unified Lead-to-Loyalty Engine
Capture enquiries, service tickets, and loyalty interactions in one AI layer that prioritizes revenue and retention opportunities.
- Capture enquiries from website forms, WhatsApp, loyalty apps, call center recordings, and trade partners with automatic tagging by store, city, and intent.
- Auto-qualify leads based on purchase intent such as catering orders, institutional supplies, or new membership enrollments with predicted order value.
- Route high-value queries to merchandising, key accounts, or the nearest store champion with SLA timers and nudges.
Customer and Staff Self-Service
Give shoppers, store teams, and delivery crews instant answers on policies, stock, and workflows over WhatsApp, web, or in-app widgets.
- Shoppers ask about SKU availability, pack sizes, nutritional info, and allergen data through WhatsApp, chat widgets, or QR codes in aisles.

Daily Challenges for Supermarket Networks
Automation keeps stores stocked, customers happy, and teams aligned.
Unpredictable Demand and Stock-outs
Demand spikes, substitutions, and shrink make it hard to keep shelves full without a real-time view of SKU movement across stores and dark warehouses.
Disconnected Procurement and Vendor Calls
Buyers chase vendors across email, WhatsApp, and spreadsheets, delaying replenishment and hiding exposure to penalties or expired inventory.
Queue and Contact Center Overload
Customers expect instant answers on product availability, delivery status, returns, and loyalty points but contact teams juggle multiple tools and miss SLAs.
Manual Promotion Rollouts
Festive offers, bundle deals, and hyperlocal pushes take days to publish and verify across stores, hurting campaign ROI and brand consistency.
Fragmented Ticketing and Escalations
Store teams log issues in disconnected sheets, resulting in lost escalations for billing, planogram, and maintenance problems.
Limited Visibility for Management
Regional managers lack an integrated picture of service quality, vendor health, and on-floor execution, making decision making reactive instead of proactive.
