For Shopify print-on-demand brands selling in many markets
Gotchu reads the mail in any language, finds the order across all your stores, checks the carrier and answers. You choose which topics it handles alone and which wait for you.
Forward your support address, connect your Shopify stores. Tracking works with any fulfilment partner that writes the number to Shopify.

Aw: Wo ist meine Bestellung? #ML1095
Hallo, ich warte seit drei Wochen auf mein Paket. Können Sie bitte nachsehen?
Hallo Frau Keller, danke für Ihre Geduld. Ihr Paket wurde vorgestern in Leipzig vom Zoll freigegeben und ist jetzt beim Zusteller. Es sollte in den nächsten Tagen bei Ihnen ankommen. Viele Grüße Lena von Maison Lumière
What every conversation gets
0 tabs
to open. The order, the live carrier scan and the customer's history are already in the conversation.
5 checks
before every reply: store, order, carrier, your past answers, your notes. It never guesses a delivery.
Any
language your customers write in. German, French, Spanish, Polish, Japanese: the reply matches theirs.
You
decide which topics it answers alone. Everything else waits for your Send.
Parcels often leave before the carrier sends a tracking number. A generic bot fills that gap with "on its way". Gotchu says what it actually knows. A wrong "on its way" comes back as a chargeback or a one-star review.

Gotchu draft

01 · Reads and finds
Gotchu works out which store, which customer and which order a mail is about, from the order number or the email address. It doesn't matter whether the customer types #ML1095, ML-1095 or ml 1095.

02 · Checks and drafts
The live carrier scan, your shop policy, your team's notes and your best past replies, written in the customer's language.

03 · Handles it, or hands it over
Put a topic on auto and Gotchu answers it alone, with a moment for you to stop it. Everything else waits for your Send, and you can edit or redraft in plain words.
Every shop answers its own way. Gotchu follows yours, on four levels, and you set how far it goes for each kind of question.

Rules · when to hold back
HOLD FOR A PERSON IF
A rule can only hold a reply back. It can never send one.
Notes · how you sound
Never promise a delivery date.
Sign as Lena. Keep it under 80 words.
When your team keeps correcting the same thing, Gotchu suggests the note for you.
Autonomy · how far it goes
Real tracking
Customs cleared · Leipzig · 2 days ago
Arrived at hub · Liège · 4 days ago
Handed to carrier · 9 days ago
Marked shipped 14 days ago. The carrier has sent no number, so there is nothing to track.
The draft says so. It never says "on its way".

Why we built it
We run print-on-demand brands in several markets, and we ran our own support. Made-to-order means long waits, and long waits mean the same question in every language. The questions were easy. The answers were scattered: the order in one tab, the parcel scan in another, the right wording in an old reply, the language in a translator. The AI tools we tried either guessed, or wanted to answer everything on their own from day one. So we built a teammate instead. It checks before it speaks, learns how we answer, and takes over a topic only when we hand it over.

Early access
We're opening Gotchu to a small group of Shopify print-on-demand teams. We'll reply within two working days.
Nothing by then? Peek in your spam folder, we're new there too.
Only for the topics you put on auto, and only when none of your rules holds the reply back. You get a moment to stop each one. Everything else waits for your Send.
DHL, DPD, GLS, UPS, Royal Mail, Evri, Colissimo, Deutsche Post, PostNL and the international lines most print-on-demand parcels travel on: thousands of carriers in all. Where a carrier can't be tracked, the draft says so instead of guessing.
Any language your customers write in. The reply comes back in theirs, in your shop's tone.
Yes. Connect every store you run. Each conversation knows which store, order and customer it belongs to.
Gotchu is the desk. Your support mail, Messenger and site chat land in one inbox, with the order already beside each conversation. Nothing changes for your customers: they write to the same address.
In your own account, walled off from every other shop. Gotchu reads order details from Shopify only when a conversation needs them, and you can ask us to delete everything at any time.
About an afternoon. Connect your Shopify stores, forward your support mail, link Messenger or site chat if you use them, then teach Gotchu how you answer. It drafts from the first conversation; you decide when it may send.
