The Buddy AI Conversion Agent is an AI-powered sales agent that works directly on your Shopify product pages.

It helps turn product-page visitors into customers by answering questions, providing product advice, understanding shopper behavior, cross-selling relevant products, collecting leads, and using intelligent discounts when appropriate.

It is interconnected with Buddy AI Sales & Support Agents, allowing the different Buddy AI experiences across your store to communicate and work together.

The Conversion Agent can:

Rather than simply answering questions, Buddy AI can use these capabilities together to identify what may be preventing a purchase and help move the shopper toward checkout.

You decide.

The position of the AI Conversion Agent can be adjusted, allowing you to choose where you want it to appear on your product page.

This gives you more control over how Buddy AI fits into your existing product-page design and shopping experience.

Yes.

You can set a custom delay for the AI Conversion Agent button, giving you control over when it becomes visible to shoppers on your product pages.

For example, you can have the button appear only after a customer has spent a certain number of seconds on the page, rather than displaying it immediately.

This allows you to give shoppers time to explore the product naturally before introducing Buddy AI at a more relevant point in their buying journey.

​

The AI Conversion Nudge is a proactive message that appears from the side of the product page and encourages shoppers to interact with Buddy AI.

When a shopper clicks the Nudge, it opens the full AI Conversion Agent.

The idea is to proactively create an opportunity for a sales conversation without immediately opening the entire agent and interrupting the shopping experience.

The Nudge uses a smart delay rather than relying only on a fixed timer.

Buddy AI learns from customer behavior on your store and can automatically optimize when the Nudge should appear.

If you prefer more control, you can also manually set the delay yourself.

This gives you two options:

Automatic: Let Buddy AI learn when shoppers are most likely to benefit from engagement.

Manual: Define exactly how many seconds should pass before the Nudge appears.

Yes.

The AI Conversion Nudge can be disabled completely if you prefer not to proactively trigger it.

The Conversion Agent can still be used independently.

Yes.

You can manually choose the title displayed on the AI Conversion Nudge.

This allows you to adapt the message to your brand, product, or desired sales approach rather than using the same generic call-to-action for every store.

Yes.

You can also define your own title for the AI Conversion Agent button.

For example, your CTA could focus on getting product advice, asking a question, finding the right product, or discovering an offer.

This allows Buddy AI to feel like a natural part of your store rather than a generic third-party widget.

Buddy AI analyzes shopper behavior and interactions to better understand purchase intent.

This helps it distinguish between casual visitors and shoppers displaying stronger buying signals.

The Conversion Agent can then adapt its approach accordingly instead of treating every visitor exactly the same.

When Buddy AI detects that a high-intent shopper may be about to leave, it can react in real time and make a stronger attempt to close the sale.

If discounts are enabled, this can include offering a higher incentive to a hot lead who might otherwise leave—while always remaining within the maximum discount you have configured.

This allows Buddy AI to protect margin when a discount isn't necessary while becoming more aggressive when there is a genuine risk of losing a promising customer.

It will also aim to capture the customer’s email address and can add a countdown timer to create a sense of urgency, helping increase the likelihood of completing the purchase.

Buddy AI doesn't simply display the same coupon to every visitor.

Discounts can be used dynamically based on the sales interaction, shopper behavior, buying intent, and the Sales Strategy you've selected.

You define the maximum discount Buddy AI is allowed to offer. The AI then works within that limit when attempting to close the sale.

The goal is to avoid giving away margin unnecessarily while still having the flexibility to incentivize shoppers when it can make a difference.

Sales Strategies determine how Buddy AI approaches the sale.

You can choose a default strategy and use different strategies for individual products, allowing the AI's behavior to match your margins, products, and business objectives.

Revenue Accelerator prioritizes revenue growth and conversions.

Buddy AI takes a more proactive approach to selling and has greater flexibility to use incentives when they can help close a sale.

Best for: Growth campaigns, competitive products, paid traffic, and products where maximizing conversion volume is the priority.

Margin Guard prioritizes protecting profitability.

Buddy AI takes a more conservative approach to incentives and attempts to close sales without unnecessary discounting.

Best for: Products with tighter margins, established bestsellers, and merchants who prioritize profit per order.

Advisory Mode creates a more consultative sales experience.

Buddy AI focuses on understanding the shopper's needs, answering questions, explaining the product, and helping the customer make the right decision rather than aggressively pushing for an immediate transaction.

Best for: Premium products, complex products, high-consideration purchases, and brands where customer experience is especially important.

Lead Collection prioritizes capturing the shopper's email address when an immediate purchase isn't necessarily the primary objective.

This allows you to continue the relationship through email marketing, retargeting, or future campaigns.

Best for: High-ticket products, longer buying cycles, lead generation, and products where prospects may require multiple touchpoints before purchasing.

Yes.

You don't need to use one sales approach across your entire catalog.

For example:

High-margin growth product → Revenue Accelerator

Low-margin bestseller → Margin Guard

Premium or complex product → Advisory Mode

High-ticket product → Lead Collection

This allows Buddy AI to sell according to the economics and customer journey of each product / collection instead of applying a one-size-fits-all strategy.

Yes.

Customers can ask both product-specific and store-related questions directly from the product page.

For example, a shopper considering a purchase could ask about the product and then immediately ask about shipping or your return policy.

Buddy AI can provide the relevant information without requiring the shopper to leave the product page to search for answers.

Yes.

Buddy AI can recommend relevant additional products during the conversation.

This allows cross-selling to happen conversationally based on the shopper's interests rather than relying entirely on static recommendations.

The result is an opportunity to increase Average Order Value while helping shoppers discover products relevant to their purchase.

It can also help when a customer is about to leave without purchasing. Instead of losing that visitor completely, Buddy AI gets another opportunity to keep them engaged and potentially convert them — especially since every customer you bring to your store has an acquisition cost.

Yes.

Buddy AI can collect email addresses naturally during conversations.

This means that even if a shopper doesn't purchase immediately, the interaction can still generate a valuable lead for future email marketing, retargeting, or win-back campaigns.

When lead generation is particularly important, you can select the Lead Collection Sales Strategy.

The Conversion Agent and Buddy AI Sales & Support Agents are interconnected and can communicate with each other.

This means Buddy AI isn't operating as a collection of isolated widgets.

Instead, the different agents work together to create a connected shopping journey across your store—from initial questions and product discovery to purchase assistance and customer support.

The Conversion Agent is designed to fit both your store design and your sales strategy.

You can customize elements including:

This gives you control over both how Buddy AI looks and how it sells.

Buddy AI automatically uses information available from your store to understand your products, policies, and business.

This includes information such as product descriptions, shipping information, return policies, and other relevant store content.

You don't need to manually create answers for every possible question.

Keeping your store information accurate, complete, and up to date gives Buddy AI the strongest foundation to work from. Buddy AI also learns through customer conversations and interactions over time.

When you're running Google, Meta, TikTok, or other advertising campaigns, getting the click is only the first step.

The visitor still needs to convert.

The AI Conversion Nudge and Conversion Agent add an interactive sales layer to the product page you've paid to send that visitor to.

Buddy AI can wait for an appropriate moment to engage, answer questions, explain the product, recommend complementary products, recognize buying signals, collect the shopper's email, and use an incentive when necessary.

If a high-intent shopper appears ready to leave, Buddy AI gets another opportunity to save the conversion before that paid traffic is lost.

Instead of sending ad traffic to a product page that simply waits for the visitor to act, you're sending it to a page with an AI salesperson that can actively help close the sale.

Think of them as two parts of the same conversion experience:

AI Conversion Nudge → Gets the shopper's attention.

It appears proactively from the side after a smart or manually configured delay and invites the shopper to engage.

AI Conversion Agent → Handles the sales conversation.

Once opened, it can answer questions, provide product guidance, cross-sell, collect emails, understand shopper intent, and use intelligent incentives to help close the sale.

The Nudge creates the interaction. The Conversion Agent takes it from there.

Buddy AI brings together AI sales, customer support, shopper intelligence, dynamic discounting, cross-selling, lead generation, and proactive engagement directly on the product page.

And these capabilities aren't isolated.

The Nudge can identify the right moment to engage. The Conversion Agent can understand what the shopper needs. Buddy AI can recognize buying signals, answer objections, recommend additional products, capture a lead, or intelligently adjust its incentive when a hot prospect is about to leave.

At the same time, it remains connected with Buddy AI Sales & Support Agents across the store.

The result isn't another chatbot or discount popup.

It's an interconnected AI sales system designed to turn more shoppers into customers.
