Conversational commerce infrastructure

WhatsApp is where your customers chat. Commerce OS turns it into your sales engine.

Hayvest Commerce OS connects WhatsApp Cloud API to your product catalog, live conversations, carts, checkout, payments, receipts, order updates, abandoned cart recovery, and analytics. Retailers gain full operational visibility from message to purchase.

Built for retailers, marketplaces, and ops-heavy teams in markets where WhatsApp is a primary sales and support channel, with multi-workspace switching, team permissions, compliance tooling, and an audit trail.

Production-minded MVP

Live flows for catalog, WhatsApp messaging, carts, checkout links, orders, and merchant admin.

Operations, not gimmicks

Team roles, billing records, cart recovery, templates, opt-out handling, and audit logging.

Built to scale on messaging volume

Structured data models and a dashboard designed for real chat-to-order throughput.

WhatsApp is already your storefront. Most backends are not.

Shoppers ask for products, compare options, and chase orders in chat. Without a structured WhatsApp commerce stack, teams paste links, re-key orders, and lose visibility from first message to payment. Basic bots cannot reliably search large catalogs, enforce carts, reconcile payments, or prove what happened in each conversation.

No single view from WhatsApp ping to paid order

Without structured workflows, teams lose visibility and customers drop before checkout.

Abandoned carts with no automated recovery

Without structured workflows, teams lose visibility and customers drop before checkout.

Support replies disconnected from catalog and stock truth

Without structured workflows, teams lose visibility and customers drop before checkout.

Keyword bots that break on real shopping questions

Without structured workflows, teams lose visibility and customers drop before checkout.

Mobile catalog browsing that does not scale

Without structured workflows, teams lose visibility and customers drop before checkout.

Leadership cannot measure chat-driven revenue

Without structured workflows, teams lose visibility and customers drop before checkout.

One conversational commerce stack: WhatsApp in front, operations in the back.

Hayvest ties natural-language shopping to searchable catalogs, line-item carts, checkout handoff, orders and billing, and a merchant control plane your team logs into every day.

Catalog-aware conversational search

Customers ask in plain language; Hayvest queries your SKU data and returns ranked options, with paths to details, variants, and price.

Structured product discovery

Selections by number or intent flow into deterministic product-detail replies your team can trust, not free-form guesses.

Server-backed carts

Persistent carts tied to WhatsApp sessions: add, view, and progress toward checkout with full traceability.

Checkout links & draft orders

Issue secure checkout URLs and draft orders so customers finish payment on the web while you reconcile in the dashboard.

Merchant command center

Unified console for inbox, customer context, commerce, payouts, analytics, templates, compliance, and audit history.

Composable architecture

Webhook-driven WhatsApp ingestion, Postgres-backed commerce entities, API-friendly boundaries for ERP, PSP, and CRM expansion.

From inbound WhatsApp message to checkout, with guardrails teams can audit.

Every hop is modeled: intents, catalogs, carts, payments, refunds, messaging consent, templates, and human handoffs when shoppers need an agent. All of it shows up in logs and dashboards.

1

Inbound chat

Customer messages your WhatsApp Business number with a buying question.

2

Fulfillment & finance view

Billing, payments & receipts

Ledger-style payment records against orders, summaries for collections, and customer receipt pages.

Abandoned cart recovery

Manual and automated recovery workflows with template and free-text sends tracked per cart.

WhatsApp templates hub

Govern approved template names and content for campaigns, recovery, and proactive messaging.

Opt-out & consent signals

Honor customer messaging preferences and surface consent state to agents and reporting.

Compliance profile

Market-aware readiness checklist for policies, disclosures, and documentation hooks.

Analytics & MVP readiness

Funnel analytics, revenue signals, and an owner-grade readiness score so launch gaps are obvious.

Invite teammates, scope permissions, and retain an append-only record of critical changes.

Multi-merchant workspaces

Switch between brands or regions without duplicating infrastructure. Cookie-backed context keeps operators in the right workspace.

Expanding connectors for ERP, OMS, and payment service providers as pilots harden requirements.

Full-funnel visibility across WhatsApp chats, carts, cash, and consent.

Product, growth, and CX leaders use Hayvest to instrument the path from product search to payment reconciliation, complete with customer timelines, handoffs, template governance, and downloadable audit artifacts for internal controls.

FAQ

Is Hayvest only a WhatsApp chatbot?

Hayvest is conversational commerce infrastructure: catalogs, carts, structured checkout artifacts, billing records, automation, governance, analytics, audit logs, and multi-merchant workspaces. It is not a scripted FAQ overlay.

Can Hayvest coexist with Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom stacks?

Yes. Treat Hayvest as the WhatsApp-fronted orchestration layer; catalog and order data can synchronize or extend via integration workstreams while merchants operate day-to-day in the Hayvest dashboard.

How mature are checkout and payments?

Merchants publish hosted checkout flows, reconcile orders, and attach manual payment records inside Hayvest today. Automated PSP connectors are prioritized per rollout geography.

More answers

How does catalog onboarding work?

Merchant admins can manually curate SKU data or ingest CSV catalogs with guided validation flows so WhatsApp replies always map to authoritative product rows.

How do humans participate after automation?

Supervisors can escalate to live agents, send approved replies from the dashboard, monitor opt-out flags, and review message-level intent classifications.

What does enterprise rollout look like?

Hayvest prioritizes SSO hardening, data residency negotiations, PSP certification, ERP sync, and custom SLAs alongside the core WhatsApp commerce experience. Pilots prove value before widening scope.
