Chatbots, AI agents, and RAG assistants that ship to production, not demos. Designed and shipped for DTC e-commerce brands, not generic templates with dtc e-commerce brands swapped in.
Most DTC e-commerce brands are operating on sites or software stacks built three to five years ago for a different version of the buyer. A slow, theme-bloated storefront tanks Core Web Vitals and conversion, especially on mobile where most traffic lands. The infrastructure decisions that compound are the ones made with the operator in the room, not the ones made in a vacuum.
Inparlor's AI Chatbots & AI Agents engagement for DTC e-commerce brands reflects that. We build AI chatbots, in-product assistants, RAG systems over your own data, and autonomous agents that take real actions inside your workflows. The deliverables below are scoped against the unit economics, support tickets per 100 orders of 8-20.
Where most agencies treat DTC e-commerce brands as another vertical to learn on, we treat the vertical as the starting point. Inventory, orders, and customer data don't sync cleanly between the store, 3PL, and ERP, so stock and statuses drift. We will tell you on the first call which of those constraints is binding and which is solvable inside the engagement.

AI Chatbots & Agents proposal turnaround
The assistant answers from your docs, policies, and product data, not the open internet. We build the retrieval layer so responses are tied to sources you control, and made-up answers have nowhere to come from.
We build a test set of real questions and grade the assistant against it before launch. It ships when it passes the bar on accuracy and tone, not when the demo happens to look good.
When the assistant is unsure or the user asks for a human, it hands off cleanly with the conversation context attached. Customers never get trapped in a loop, and the team picks up exactly where the bot left off.
We instrument how many questions the assistant actually resolves versus how many escalate, and watch it over time. Deflection is the number that justifies the build, so we report it rather than guess at it.
