Customer stories
Lifting Trustpilot while resolving 80%+ of tickets with AI.
The gap between AI answers and actions
Your customers don’t need another answer. They need the thing done.
Repetitive tickets keep pulling your team back.
Order changes, exchanges, delivery issues, product questions, discounts, and returns keep dragging skilled people into the same checks every day.
Most bots stop where the real work starts.
A customer needs an address changed, a label created, a refund checked, a product found, or a human looped in with context. FAQ answers don’t finish that work.
Growth turns small gaps into support debt.
Campaigns, holidays, absences, and weekend queues expose every weak spot in your support operation exactly when your brand needs to feel reliable.
Where bots break
The customer asks for action. The bot asks another question.
The customer needs an order checked, a return started, a reship approved, or a handoff with context. Generic bots keep the conversation moving without moving the work.

Questions before launch
What teams usually need to know first.
Clear answers on setup, channels, workflow coverage, human handoff, and who keeps the AI agent improving after it goes live.
What is Adelante, and who is it for?
Adelante is a managed AI customer support agent for Shopify and DTC ecommerce brands handling roughly 200 to 20,000 support tickets a month. We set up your AI support, then we run it. The agent checks orders, processes returns and address changes, answers product questions, and hands off to your team with context.
Is there an AI agent that can actually process returns and address changes, not just answer questions?
Yes. Adelante's agent reads live order, shipping, and policy data, then takes the actions you approve (address changes before fulfillment, returns, exchanges, and damaged-item replacements) and logs the result to your helpdesk. Answers aren't outcomes; the ticket is done when the work is done.
How long does it take to set up an AI customer support agent?
Ten days. Days 1–3 we map your support flows and connect your helpdesk, store, and shipping tools; days 4–7 we train the agent on your policies and test real ticket paths; days 8–10 we launch and monitor. Your team approves the important decisions, and we do the setup work.
Will an AI agent issue refunds or make mistakes without asking us?
It only acts within limits you approve. You decide what the agent can say and do before launch, sensitive flows can run in draft-only mode, and refunds above your threshold, VIPs, fraud signals, and policy exceptions escalate to a human. Every action is logged to your helpdesk.
Does it work with Zendesk or Gorgias, or do we have to switch helpdesks?
No switch needed. The agent works inside the helpdesk you already run, such as Zendesk, Gorgias, or Freshdesk, and connects to Shopify, WooCommerce, or Magento plus email, chat, WhatsApp, and social messaging. Replies adapt to the channel.
We already use Zendesk AI or Gorgias AI. Why would we add Adelante?
Helpdesk AI is good at suggesting replies inside the helpdesk. Adelante owns the whole flow. It reads order, shipping, and policy context from your store, takes the approved action, and logs the result back, so the ticket is finished, not just answered. Your team gives direction; Adelante does the operating work.
What happens when the AI can't handle a ticket?
The agent hands over the ticket with the customer request, checked context, and suggested next step. The customer stays in the same thread, and the human does not have to rebuild the story from scratch.
Who maintains the AI agent after it goes live?
Adelante does. We review conversations, monitor handovers, find missing policy coverage, and improve the agent as your store, catalog, and support patterns change.
How much does Adelante cost?
Plans start at $900/month, including 5,000 AI messages, with no setup fees. There is no free trial; instead, there is a 30-day money-back guarantee. See the pricing page for details.
