AI Voice Agent for Retail Stores — Stock, Hours & Reservations by Phone

Let shoppers call any store and instantly get stock availability, opening hours, and product holds — without tying up staff on the shop floor.

Spoki Voice for Retail

The Challenge

"Do you have this in stock?" calls pull staff away from customers on the floor, and unanswered store lines send shoppers straight to a competitor. Multi-location retailers also struggle to keep phone coverage consistent across every branch.

How It Works

Customer calls any store
Spoki Voice answers instantly at every location, no matter how busy the floor is.
Live stock and hours lookup
Spoki Voice checks real-time inventory, pricing, and store hours before answering.
Holds and simple requests handled
Product holds, size availability, and directions are confirmed on the call.
Complex requests routed to staff
Anything needing a specialist — styling advice, complaints, large orders — is handed off with context.

Example

Spoki Voice

In-store & phone

Hi, do you have the Nova sneakers in size 42 at your downtown store?
Let me check that store's stock now... yes, two pairs in size 42 are available.
Can you hold one for me until this evening?
Done — it's on hold under your name until 8pm. Anything else?

WhatsApp Business API (Spoki): • Designed for medium to large businesses • Unlimited operators: Your entire team can manage conversations simultaneously • Unlimited broadcasts: Send messages to thousands of contacts • Advanced automation: Chatbots, automatic responses, intelligent workflows • CRM integration: Connect with your existing tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.) • Analytics & reporting: Detailed statistics on your communications • No ban risk: Official API approved by Meta for bulk messaging • Cloud-based: No need to keep a phone connected • Multi-channel: Integrate WhatsApp with SMS, Voice, and other channels
