Gorgias AI alternative for ecommerce
Gorgias AI is do-it-yourself. Adelante is done for you.
Gorgias AI Agent gives your team a guided setup, and your team does each step on your own store data. We build yours, launch it and run it, and before it takes an action it confirms who is asking.
Send 100 recent tickets. We'll map what can be resolved by AI, what needs human judgment, and what ecommerce workflows should be automated first.
Complex ecommerce workflow

The difference
Gorgias AI can issue a refund too. Someone on your team still has to run it.
Gorgias AI
Your team runs Gorgias AI.
Gorgias gives you a guided setup and 130+ pre-built actions. Your team trains the agent on your catalog and policies and decides which actions it may take. After launch someone works through the reply scores. A strong ecommerce helpdesk if you have the hands for it.
Adelante
We run yours.
We map your flows with you, connect Gorgias and your store and test the agent on your real tickets. It is live in 10 days. After that we read the conversations and fix what it gets wrong.
Your team gives direction. Adelante does the operating work.
Before it acts
“How do you know the address change is legit?”
The agent checks who is asking first, with a one-time code or the customer's identity in your helpdesk. Then your rule applies, so an address changes only before the order is fulfilled. Anything that looks like fraud goes to a person, and every action is logged to your helpdesk.
We set these checks up with you on the launch call.
The request
Can you change my delivery address?
Order placed yesterday. Nothing shipped yet.

Deciding when a refund or address change is allowed
Gorgias AI
Your team writes the rules as Guidance in Gorgias, chooses the actions and decides where the shopper has to confirm first.

“It’s transformed our customer experience manager’s world. She can focus on tasks that actually matter more.”
What we run for you

Replacement requests
Reshipment decisions
Return and exchange guidance
Inventory and variant availability checks
Product recommendations
Human handoff when policy or risk requires judgment
The operating difference
Operated beats installed.
When the agent misses, that's our queue. It gets better because someone is responsible for making it better.
See what your ecommerce queue actually needs.
Send 100 recent support tickets. Adelante will classify what can be automated, what needs human judgment, and what ecommerce workflows are missing.
See where support can move beyond lookup into refunds, replacements, reships, inventory checks, and product guidance.
FAQ
What CX leads ask us about this.
Do we have to switch helpdesks?
No. Adelante works inside Zendesk, Gorgias or the helpdesk you already use, and every conversation and action is logged there.
What does my team still have to do?
Give direction. On the launch call you tell us which flows to automate and where the agent must stop. After launch you approve changes to the rules and take the handoffs. We do everything else.
How do you know it is really the customer?
Before it takes an action the agent verifies who is asking, with a one-time code or the customer's identity in your helpdesk. If anything about the request looks off, such as a fraud signal or a refund over your threshold, it goes to a person on your team with the conversation attached.
How long until it is live?
10 days from kickoff. Days 1 to 3 we map your flows and connect your systems. Days 4 to 7 we train the agent on your policies and test it on real tickets. Days 8 to 10 it goes live with monitoring.
What if we already turned Gorgias AI on?
Keep Gorgias. Adelante works inside it, so nothing has to come out. Send us the tickets the AI Agent still hands back to your team and that is where we start.
What does the 100-ticket benchmark include?
You send 100 recent tickets and we sort them by automation fit. Each one comes back marked as resolvable by AI, partly automatable, human-only, or blocked by a missing workflow or data source. That list is where the launch starts.
