Shoe Store: a sneaker photo in the chat and the order is on its way

Customers send the store photos of shoes from Instagram or the street. The bot recognises the model, picks the size from foot length, clears doubts and places the order.

* Demo case: names, quotes and numbers are placeholders and will be replaced with real ones.

Challenge

Managers searched for the model by photo by hand, asked for the size again and often got it wrong with small-fitting models. Returns ate into the margin.

  • Finding a model by photo took up to 10 minutes
  • Sizes were advised by eye
  • Orders were copied into the CRM manually

Solution

The AI assistant recognises the model from the photo and catalogue, advises a size that accounts for the fit, explains exchange terms and creates the order in KeyCRM. Once a manager confirms it, the bot creates the Nova Poshta waybill and sends the number in WhatsApp.

  • Model recognition from the customer's photo
  • Size from foot length adjusted for the model
  • The order without a manager, the waybill once they confirm
Architecture

How the bot is built

The customer writes in a messenger, the AI assistant understands the request and works with the business's services itself. No copying between tabs.

Behind the scenes

What happens while the customer types

01

Checks the size chart

The bot knows Court White fits small and suggests a 9.5 instead of the usual 9 for a 27 cm foot.

Ships with Nova Poshta

Once confirmed, the bot creates the waybill and sends the number in WhatsApp. Within 24 hours of the customer's last message this is a regular non-template reply: the first 1,000 a month are free, then Meta's rates apply.

Pros and limits

What the business got

  • The model is found in seconds
  • Size from foot length and the model's fit, not by eye
  • Customers get the waybill without asking
  • Managers handle wholesale and tricky questions

Limits worth knowing

  • Since 1 October 2026 only the first 1,000 replies a month per number are free, and WhatsApp templates (reminders, statuses, broadcasts) are paid at Meta's rates
  • Recognition is weaker on blurry photos, then the bot asks again
  • The catalogue and stock must be kept up to date
