AI for online shops

AI for online shops: less routine in customer service, more time for your business

Order-status questions, returns, product descriptions in several languages – AI can now reliably prepare or handle much of this. Together we find the task where AI really pays off in your shop, build it in four weeks and then look after it in day-to-day operation.

Where AI really helps in an online shop

Most shops deal with the same tasks again and again: “Where is my order?”, “How do I send something back?”, new products need descriptions – ideally in English or French as well. This is exactly where AI is strong, provided it works with your real data and has clear limits.

We use AI so that you stay in control: if you wish, a person approves every answer before it goes out. Anything the AI cannot answer reliably goes to your team. And if a task is not worth it, we tell you in the AI check.

Looking for AI outside the shop, for example in the office or in sales? Then our AI agents for businesses (German) are the better fit.

Typical use cases

Answer customer emails automatically

Questions about order status, delivery time or returns are recognised and answered with data from your shop – or prepared as a ready draft for approval.

Product descriptions at scale

Master data, bullet points or supplier details become consistent product descriptions in your tone of voice – for hundreds of items instead of one by one.

Translations for new markets

Product copy, categories and email templates in more languages – with a glossary for your terminology and spot checks.

Returns and complaints

Analyse return reasons, sort complaints by urgency and suggest suitable replies, so nothing gets stuck.

Maintain product data

Fill in missing attributes, assign items to the right category and find duplicates.

Make sense of customer feedback

Summarise reviews and enquiries: which questions keep coming up, where does the shop cause friction?

Data protection and control

  • GDPR-compliant implementation

    We choose providers and settings so that the processing of personal data meets the requirements of the GDPR.

  • Data processing agreement (DPA)

    For processing customer data on your behalf, we sign a data processing agreement with you under Art. 28 GDPR.

  • European AI providers

    We prefer European providers such as Mistral AI from France, and hosting in the EU.

  • No training on your data

    We use paid API access under which your inputs and outputs are contractually not used to train the AI models.

  • People stay in charge

    Approval steps, clear limits for the AI and hand-over to your team whenever an enquiry is unclear.

Process

How it works

  1. AI check

    In 30 minutes we go through your most frequent enquiries and processes and look together at where AI pays off.

  2. Concept and fixed price

    You receive a written offer with scope, fixed price and running costs.

  3. Sprint (4 weeks)

    We build and connect the solution, test it with real examples and brief your team.

  4. Operations

    If you wish, we take over monitoring, adjustments and improvements.

Why Rhein Code

Direct line to the developer

You talk to the person who builds your solution – no sales layer in between.

Shop and AI from one source

We build online shops and integrations ourselves and know where AI fits into everyday shop work.

An honest assessment

If AI is not right for a task, we say so – before the offer, not after.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Which shop systems do you support?
We work with Shopify and WooCommerce as well as custom shops that have an interface (API). Whether your system fits, we clarify in the free AI check.
Will the AI answer my customers without any control?
Only if you want it to. Many shops start with the AI preparing drafts that a person approves. Only once the quality is right do simple cases such as order status go out automatically.
What does ongoing operation cost?
There are two parts: our support (AI operations package) and the usage costs of the AI model, which depend on the number of enquiries. We state both separately before we start.
How quickly can a solution go live?
The implementation sprint is planned for four weeks, provided that access and sample data are ready at the start.
Do customers need to know that an AI is answering?
Yes. The EU AI Act requires that people can tell when they are interacting with an AI system. We build the right notice in from the start.
What if AI is not worth it for my shop?
Then we tell you in the AI check. The check is free and without obligation.
