Ensure Safety with Medical Guardrails

With Relio's basic safety feature enabled, your AI chatbot comes equipped with crucial medical guardrails. This ensures that products are not inappropriately recommended as treatments for serious health conditions like diabetes or heart disease. It's designed for supplement, pharmacy, and cosmetic stores that prioritize customer safety.

The AI advises customers to consult medical specialists for health-related questions, ensuring responsible guidance. This reassures customers that their health is taken seriously while maintaining trust in your brand.

  • When a visitor asks about skin products for eczema, the AI responds with, “Our products can support skin health, but please consult a physician for treatment recommendations.”
  • For inquiries about dietary supplements, the AI includes disclaimers in its responses, stating, “These supplements support wellness, but are not cures. Consult a healthcare provider for more information.”

You don't need to configure these guardrails manually; they are automatically integrated, allowing you to focus on your core business while Relio handles customer interactions with accuracy and care.

Recommend Products Based on Customer Needs

When a customer visits your supplement store, Relio's AI Chat Assistant understands their specific needs, like 'something for sleep' or 'protein for beginners'. The AI doesn’t just rely on keywords; it comprehends the intent and context, providing product recommendations directly from your actual catalog.

For example, if someone asks for 'something for sleep', Relio might suggest a melatonin supplement. The widget ensures accuracy by automatically attaching necessary health disclaimers, maintaining compliance and promoting safe use. This means your customers get the information they need while you uphold regulatory standards.

  • Reads the inquiry in natural language.
  • Searches your product catalog.
  • Recommends appropriate items with disclaimers.
  • Connects customers with matched solutions quickly.

Your store benefits as visitors engage with accurate, helpful guidance, increasing their confidence and likelihood to purchase. This approach enhances customer experience while keeping compliance at the forefront, ultimately driving sales.

Enrich With Knowledge Base Documents

Enhance your AI chatbot's capabilities by adding ingredient guides and policy documents directly into its knowledge base. Simply upload PDFs or link URLs, and the AI will use these resources to provide accurate and informed answers to your customers' questions. This ensures that your supplement store meets compliance requirements and delivers credible information.

For example, if a customer inquires about the benefits of a specific vitamin, the AI can instantly reference your uploaded guides, offering insights directly within the chat. This not only improves customer satisfaction but also builds trust by showcasing your store's commitment to transparency and knowledge.

  • Ingredient details: Easily provide breakdowns of what each product contains.
  • Usage policies: Share guidelines or restrictions related to supplement usage.
  • Compliance: Ensure customers are aware of important legal or health notices.

By incorporating these documents, your AI chatbot becomes a reliable source of information. This allows you to focus on growing your business while the chatbot handles routine queries with precision and authority.

Drive Sales with Owner Bias

With Relio's Owner Bias feature, you gain complete control over what products your AI chatbot recommends to customers. If you have house brands or specific product lines you wish to promote, you can adjust the AI's priorities to highlight these items in conversations.

This control helps you promote high-margin products or efficiently move overstock inventory. Simply configure the AI to focus on these items, ensuring they catch the attention of your visitors during chats. For instance, if you want to push a particular vitamin line, the AI will naturally incorporate these options into its suggestions.

Boosting the visibility of targeted inventory can directly impact your sales. For example, when a visitor asks, "I'm looking for a supplement to enhance energy levels," your priority products will be among the recommendations. This strategic approach maximizes your store's unique offerings.

  • Highlight house brands
  • Promote high-margin items
  • Target overstock for faster sales
  • Gain precise control over recommendations

By using Owner Bias wisely, you tailor the AI interaction to meet your store's needs, driving more relevant product visibility.

Manage Orders and Subscriptions Easily

Managing orders and subscriptions can be a headache for supplement and health stores, especially when customers need quick answers. With Relio's Order Management feature, you can handle order status checks and cancellations directly within the chat. Imagine your customer asks, "What's the status of my order?" The AI accesses the purchase details through Shopify or WooCommerce and provides an instant update.

This real-time capability extends to subscription-related inquiries. Whether a customer wants to know about their next shipment or wishes to change their subscription plan, the AI offers prompt assistance. It simply asks for the necessary details and updates the subscription status without delay.

Integrating with Shopify or WooCommerce ensures that all order-related processes are smooth and aligned. As the store owner, you won't spend time switching between platforms to manage customer requests.

These features reduce friction in your customer service by handling common queries in the chat, allowing you to focus on growing your business. Explore more about how Relio aids your online store.

Relio maintains complete chat histories, allowing human agents to pick up exactly where the AI left off. This continuity ensures that your agents understand the customer's context and needs, providing them with the information required to offer personalized solutions. Whether it's a question about supplement compatibility or a delivery issue, your team can address it with full context.
