Let your website answer product questions.

Agreed catalogue content only. Honest handover. Every question logged. A private agent on your product pages that finds the right entry, compares two codes, and passes anything it can’t answer to a person with the buyer’s exact words.

  • No stock or price guesses
  • Cites the entry it used
  • Sits beside your existing site

Ten-second illustrative film for the website assistant: a buyer’s question, matching products, an answer with its source.

Try the guided demo

What it helps with

Everyday questions. Grounded answers.

01

Find the right category

A buyer knows roughly what they need but not what you call it. The agent guides them from “a film for wrapping pallets by hand” to the entries that fit.

Navigation by conversation

02

Compare two entries

Two codes look similar. The agent sets out the differences the catalogue actually states, such as gauge, roll size and colour, and cites both entries.

Grounded comparison

03

Know when to hand over

Suitability for a site, a price or a stock level needs a person. The agent says what it cannot answer and passes the question on with the buyer’s wording.

Honest handover

02 / Guided demonstration

Choose a question.
See a grounded answer.

Six preset questions, a six-line sample catalogue and a question log. The answers are written in advance, so nothing is sent or stored.

Website assistant, sample
Sample catalogue: 6 entries

Choose a sample question

Each answer names the sample catalogue entry it relies on. Two of the six show the assistant declining to guess.

Sample conversation

No question chosen yet.Pick one of the sample questions to see how a grounded answer reads, and watch the sample log below gain a row.

Visitor

Which film do you have for wrapping pallets by hand?

Assistant

For hand wrapping, the catalogue lists SF-20 hand stretch film: 17 micron, 400 mm wide, 300 m per roll, supplied six rolls to a box.

The two machine films, SF-23 and SF-23-BK, are listed for pallet wrappers rather than hand use. Would you like the SF-20 entry in full, or a comparison with the machine films?

Visitor

What is the difference between SF-23 and SF-23-BK?

Assistant

Both are machine stretch films with the same gauge and roll size. The catalogue lists one difference, the colour.

Illustrative comparison of two sample catalogue entries.

SF-2323 micron500 mm x 1,500 m, 76 mm coreClear
SF-23-BK23 micron500 mm x 1,500 m, 76 mm coreOpaque black

The catalogue notes the black version for loads that should be kept from view. It does not state any other difference, so I will not suggest one.

Visitor

Do you sell a machine that wraps pallets?

Assistant

Yes. The catalogue lists the SW-1 semi-automatic pallet wrapper: 1,650 mm turntable, pallets up to 2,100 mm high, single-phase power. It uses 500 mm machine film such as SF-23.

Whether it suits your site and the loads you wrap is a question for a sales specialist. I can pass your question on, and if you would like a reply you can choose to leave your name and email.

Source: sample entry SW-1

Handover. In a live implementation the visitor could choose to leave contact details here. This demonstration does not collect anything.

Visitor

Is SF-23 suitable for loads stored outside in winter?

Assistant

I cannot answer that from the catalogue. The SF-23 entry gives the gauge, roll size and colour but says nothing about outdoor use or cold weather, and I do not give advice beyond the agreed content.

I can pass this to a sales specialist who can advise. If you would like a reply, you can choose to leave your name and email and the team will come back to you.

Checked: sample entry SF-23 (no outdoor information)

Referred. The question is logged for the team, marked as not covered by the catalogue. This demonstration does not collect details.

Visitor

How much is SF-20 and is it in stock?

Assistant

I do not hold prices or stock levels, so I cannot quote or confirm availability. The team can confirm both.

To help them reply quickly: SF-20 is the hand stretch film, 17 micron, 400 mm wide, 300 m per roll, six rolls to a box. If you would like a quote, you can choose to leave your details and the team will get back to you.

Source: sample entry SF-20 (description only)

Referred. Live pricing and stock are not part of the assistant unless they are scoped and agreed for an implementation.

Visitor

Do you sell a replacement drive belt for the SW-1?

Assistant

Yes. The catalogue lists TR-SW1, the turntable drive belt for the SW-1 pallet wrapper, sold singly.

If your machine is an earlier model, the team may ask for the serial number to confirm it is the right part.

Sample question log

What the team would see: the question as asked, how it was handled and whether the visitor chose to leave details. Five invented entries, plus a row for each sample question you choose above.

Illustrative question and enquiry log. All references, topics and visitors are invented.

“Details left” means the visitor chose to give a name and email in that sample conversation. The assistant does not identify anonymous visitors. What is collected, and for how long, is agreed for each implementation.

This is a demonstration of the approach. A live assistant would be built on your agreed catalogue content, with boundaries, handover and log access scoped with your team.

What your team gets

Questions worth reviewing, in one place.

The log collects every question asked on your site, how it was handled, and whether the buyer chose to leave details. Review it together each week, or let the internal agent read it.

  • Referred questions and enquiries sit together for a specialist to reply from one place
  • Repeated unanswerable questions point to catalogue content worth adding
  • Each answer names the entries it used, so anyone can check it
  • Buyers stay anonymous unless they choose to leave a name and email

How we scope it

Agree the sources. Set the limits. Then build.

See pricing →
  1. 01

    Knowledge sources

    Agree which product information the agent is configured around: catalogue pages, data sheets, agreed FAQs.

  2. 02

    Boundaries and handover

    Decide what it must not answer, how it hands over to a specialist and what a visitor may choose to leave behind.

  3. 03

    Build and check

    Configure the agent, then test sample questions against the catalogue with your team, including the ones it should decline.

  4. 04

    Log access and upkeep

    Agree who reviews the question log, how often, and how catalogue changes flow back into the agent.

A few practical questions

Before we talk.

Anything else, email hello@socraty.ai.

Is the demo on this page a live product?

No. It is a guided demonstration with preset questions and written answers, so you can see the style of a grounded reply. A live agent is built on your own agreed content.

Does it use our live stock and prices?

Not by default. The agent is configured around agreed product content. Live stock or pricing would need a separate integration, scoped and agreed before any build.

Can it tell us who is visiting?

No. Visitors stay anonymous unless they choose to leave contact details so the team can reply. What is collected and how long it is kept is agreed for each implementation.

What happens with questions it cannot answer?

It says so, offers to pass the question to a person and logs it for the team. Repeated unanswerable questions point to content worth adding to the catalogue.

Does this replace our website or shop?

No. The agent sits alongside your existing site and product pages. It does not take orders or payments.

Worth a conversation?

Let’s look at the questions your website visitors already ask, walk through the demo together and see whether an agent built on your catalogue is worth scoping.
