Can an AI agent reply to jewellery enquiries on WhatsApp?
Yes, on the business number your customers already message. It answers catalogue, rate, branch availability, exchange, repair and scheme questions from your approved information, sends collection images, qualifies the enquiry on occasion and budget, and books a consultation. Anything outside what you have approved goes to a person rather than being guessed at.
Will it work with the WhatsApp number we already use?
That is the intention — a new number means teaching every existing customer a new number, which defeats the point. It runs on your WhatsApp Business account through approved templates, respects the 24-hour session window, and honours STOP permanently on any thread.
Can it handle voice notes and Hinglish?
Both, and it needs to. A large share of Indian WhatsApp enquiries arrive as voice notes rather than typed text, and customers write half in Hindi and half in English in the same line. The agent handles ten languages including Hinglish, in text and voice, and replies in whatever the customer used.
Can it chase gold savings scheme instalments?
Yes, and it is one of the clearest wins because the work is pure repetition on a schedule. The agent messages before the due date and follows up after a missed one, answers what is due and what has been paid from your scheme ledger, and records the response so your team is chasing only the people who need chasing.
What happens with bridal enquiries that run over weeks?
They stay in one thread. A bridal order typically runs three to five showroom visits with design revisions and a fitting, and the common failure is a week where nobody replied. The agent keeps the conversation alive between visits, tracks the promised design and the next appointment, and hands to your advisor when a decision is due. More on that in turning enquiries into showroom visits.
Does it send images, or only text?
Images, which matters when the product is jewellery. It sends the collection photos for whatever was asked about, from the catalogue your marketing team already maintains, so the customer is choosing from your pieces rather than describing someone else's.
How do we stop it from answering something it should not?
By scoping what it knows. It answers from your catalogue, rate sheet, stock extract and policy text, and refuses anything outside them. Valuations, disputes and bespoke commissions are routed to a person with the thread attached.
