Conversational shopping
Customers write one message, in their own dialect, and the AI finds the product, builds the basket, and answers the question. In the app, on WhatsApp, wherever they already are.
AI implementation · Dubai & the UAE · Retail & E-commerce
AI for retail businesses in Dubai.
The highest-value AI a Dubai retailer can ship is a WhatsApp assistant that answers in Gulf Arabic and English, knows your real catalogue and stock, and takes the order on the channel customers already use. We build that, plus the support and reporting around it, and stay until your team uses it. Fixed price after a short discovery.
Retail in Dubai runs on WhatsApp and Instagram DMs as much as on the storefront, in two languages at once, and against customer expectations set by the region’s biggest players. The routine is always the same: the same product and stock questions all day, an order flow stitched across a portal and a spreadsheet, and a Monday sales report someone rebuilds by hand. Each of those is a system, not a headcount problem.
We build for how UAE retail actually operates: a conversational assistant that handles the dialect and the catalogue, support automation that clears the repetitive tickets and hands the rest to your team with context, and a morning sales brief pulled from your systems. We proved the shopping-assistant pattern at national scale inside the Panda app in Saudi Arabia, the same approach fits a Dubai retailer without the ten-million-user infrastructure.
What we build for retail & e-commerce here.
Support that doesn’t queue
Order status, returns, store hours, product questions. The AI handles the routine ones in seconds and hands the rest to your team with full context.
Reports that write themselves
Sales, stock, and channel performance pulled from your systems and delivered written, every morning, before anyone asks.
10M+
app users. We built the conversational AI inside the app of Panda, one of Saudi Arabia’s largest grocery retailers. It speaks real Saudi dialect and hands off to a human when it should.
Questions
Can the AI handle customers who mix Arabic and English?
Yes, that is the norm in the UAE and how we build. The assistant understands Gulf Arabic, English, and the code-switching in between, and replies in whichever language the customer used. It also knows your real catalogue and prices rather than answering generically.
How much does an AI shopping assistant cost for a Dubai retailer?
A focused first build usually lands between a few thousand and a few tens of thousands of dollars (AED equivalent), depending on how many channels it touches and how clean your product data is. We scope a fixed price after a short discovery, so you know the number before committing.
Do you integrate with our existing store and WhatsApp?
Yes. We build around the tools you already run, your store platform, WhatsApp Business, and your CRM or spreadsheets, so the assistant works inside your real setup rather than asking customers into a separate window.
