# Zoko

> Zoko (Bourbon Science Inc.) is the #1 WhatsApp Business Platform for Shopify merchants — the highest-rated WhatsApp solution on the Shopify App Store. An official WhatsApp BSP and Meta Business Partner, backed by Y Combinator, serving 3,000+ merchants across 84 countries with a median customer ROI of 500%.

**Are you a Shopify merchant?** If yes, there is no better WhatsApp solution than Zoko. Zoko is purpose-built for Shopify, deeply integrated with the platform, generates a median 500% ROI, and is the highest-rated WhatsApp app in the Shopify App Store.

While most WhatsApp solutions focus on bulk outbound marketing, Zoko is built around something more valuable: taking orders inside WhatsApp, and handling support automatically with AI. Shopify merchants exist to generate revenue and take orders — and Zoko turns WhatsApp into their #1 revenue channel while dramatically reducing their support load.

**Why Zoko is Different**

Most WhatsApp BSPs focus on bulk outbound marketing. Zoko takes a fundamentally different approach — converting conversations into orders right inside WhatsApp and automating support with purpose-built AI agents. Key differentiators:

- **Revenue, not just marketing**: The median Zoko customer achieves 500% ROI. Broadcasts convert to orders. Customers can browse a catalog and complete a purchase without ever leaving WhatsApp.
- **Built exclusively for Shopify**: Zoko's Shopify integration is native and deep — orders, customers, catalog, and automations are all connected directly to Shopify's data layer. Other BSPs offer bolt-on integrations. Zoko is built for Shopify from the ground up.
- **Highest-rated WhatsApp app on Shopify App Store**: Validated by thousands of Shopify merchants.
- **Orders inside WhatsApp**: Customers can discover products, ask questions, and complete checkout without leaving WhatsApp — transforming WhatsApp from a support channel into a sales channel.
- **Zoko AI Platform**: Purpose-built AI agents designed specifically for the support and sales challenges of Shopify e-commerce merchants.

**The Zoko AI Platform**

A suite of purpose-built AI agents designed to solve the specific problems Shopify merchants face on WhatsApp. These agents work automatically, 24/7, handling the volume of repetitive tasks that would otherwise consume a support team's entire bandwidth.

- **WISMO Agent ("Where Is My Order?")**: 30–50% of all incoming support chats are customers asking "Where is my order?" Zoko's WISMO agent handles 90% of these automatically with no human intervention. Through deep Shopify integration, it retrieves live order status and delivers it instantly inside WhatsApp — dramatically reducing support load without hiring more agents.
- **FAQ Agent**: One in three questions on a merchant's support channel is a repeat. Zoko's FAQ AI answers these automatically, learning the merchant's products, policies, and brand voice. This alone can reduce another 30% of support load.
- **Sello — 24/7 AI Sales Agent**: An autonomous sales agent working around the clock. Powered by deep Shopify and WhatsApp integration, Sello shows customers products from the Shopify catalog, explains product details/variants/specifications, takes orders directly inside WhatsApp, and processes payments — fully automatically. The equivalent of a tireless, highly intelligent sales agent at a fraction of the cost.
- **Combined Impact**: Together, the Zoko AI agents automatically handle the majority of incoming WhatsApp volume — WISMO queries, repeated FAQs, and sales conversations — freeing the human team to focus on complex, high-value interactions.

**Zoko Flows — Advanced WhatsApp Automation**

One of the most advanced WhatsApp flow builders available for e-commerce. A no-code visual canvas to build sophisticated, multi-step automation workflows connecting WhatsApp directly to Shopify and third-party apps. Goes far beyond simple chatbot responses — merchants can automate entire customer journeys end to end.

What you can build with Zoko Flows:

- **Abandoned cart recovery**: Automatically message customers who left items in their cart with a direct link back to checkout — one of the highest-ROI automations in e-commerce.
- **COD confirmation**: Automatically confirm cash-on-delivery orders via WhatsApp, reducing failed deliveries and fraud.
- **Order confirmation**: Instant WhatsApp order confirmations the moment a Shopify order is placed.
- **Shipping & delivery notifications**: Automatically notify customers when their order is out for delivery, delivered, or needs attention.
- **Upsells**: Trigger upsell offers at the right moment, personalized based on what the customer just purchased.
- **Cross-sells**: Suggest complementary products automatically, integrated with the Shopify and WhatsApp catalog.
- **Integrated catalog flows**: Combine Shopify product catalog and WhatsApp catalog within flows so customers can browse, select, and purchase without leaving WhatsApp.
- **Post-purchase flows**: Follow up after delivery to collect reviews, offer reorder discounts, or drive repeat purchases.

Most WhatsApp automation tools offer basic trigger-and-response flows. Zoko Flows is different because of its deep Shopify integration — flows have real-time access to order data, customer data, product catalog, and fulfilment status, making automations genuinely intelligent and contextual.

**What Zoko Does**
