✦ support
f.01

Resolve tickets before they grow.

Order status, exchanges, returns, sizing, shipping ETAs. Steff answers from your real data — never makes it up.

✦ sales
f.02

Recover carts by talking, not spamming.

Detects abandonment, writes on the channel the customer used, offers the right nudge and generates checkout. No blast emails.

✦ sales
f.03

Sells like a salesperson, not a bot.

Upsells, cross-sells, suggests bundles and schedules follow-ups. Learns what closes in your category and season.

✦ training
f.04

Your voice, your rules.

Upload your brand guides, sample replies, FAQs. Tune formality, warmth and humor with simple sliders.

✦ inbox
f.05

Unified inbox, multi-channel and multi-user.

One bay for WhatsApp, IG, Messenger and email. Your team works in parallel — conversation assignment, internal notes, labels. When someone on your team replies from the native IG app, Steff detects it and pauses itself.

✦ control
f.06

Pause the bot whenever.

One click per conversation or per channel. Steff stays quiet and hands the conversation back to you.

✦ autopilot
f.07

Auto-escalation to humans.

Rules + instinct. If it detects anger, complexity or trigger words, it opens a ticket and pings the admin on WhatsApp.

✦ jobs
f.08

Polling & pulling in the background.

Scheduled tasks: chase overdue orders, post-purchase follow-up, sync stock, send reminders. Cron + AI, no glue code.

✦ multimodal
f.09

Understands images and audio.

The customer sends a photo of a broken product or a long voice note — Steff reads the image, transcribes the audio and answers in context.

02 / flows

sales and support automation,
custom integrations.

Design conversations that fire real actions in your systems. Steff hooks every step to tools — from a private API to a shell script. If your system speaks HTTP, Steff can drive it.

05 / faq

the questions we always get.

Does Steff replace my support team?

No. Steff takes 70-90% of the repetitive load and frees your team for the cases that move the needle: VIP customers, serious complaints, big sales. You decide what always escalates.

How do I connect my store if I'm on an obscure stack?

As long as your system exposes an HTTP API (or can fire webhooks), Steff connects. We ship native integrations for Shopify, WooCommerce, TiendaNube, HubSpot and Defontana, and a tool builder for everything else.

WhatsApp Business API — do you provide it?

Yes. We help you get your verified WhatsApp Business API number with no friction. We also work with numbers you already have on another BSP (Twilio, 360dialog).

How seriously can I pause the bot?

Very. You can pause per conversation, per channel, per workspace, or globally. And if someone on your team replies from the native Instagram or Messenger app, Steff detects the "echo" and pauses itself so it never steps on a human reply.

Is my data safe?

Yes. Servers in regions you pick, encryption in transit and at rest, no training of global models with your data. We follow GDPR and Chilean data protection law best practices.

How long does implementation take?

Starter is live the same day. Pro, 3–7 days depending on integrations. Max depends on scope — we average 2–3 weeks with dedicated onboarding.

Is heysteff the same as a rule-based chatbot?

No. heysteff is an AI agent that reasons over the customer's real context (orders, stock, history) and uses tools — not a fixed decision tree. It replies in natural language, in your brand's tone, and only escalates to a human when it should.

Can I choose which AI model powers my agent?

Yes. You can choose the LLM provider per workspace among Anthropic, OpenAI, DeepSeek and OpenRouter, based on what you prioritize: cost, speed or reply quality.

Does heysteff schedule appointments?

Yes. The agent books, reschedules and cancels appointments right in the conversation, with Google Calendar sync and configurable calendars depending on your plan.

Does it help qualify leads?

Yes. heysteff connects to Facebook Lead Ads, triggers automatic qualification flows, and organizes leads in a funnel inside the same workspace.

Is heysteff a Shopify App Store app?

The core heysteff agent connects to your store via direct OAuth, without going through the Shopify App Store. heysteff Reviews (our reviews module) is a published Shopify App Store app, separate from the core agent.

What is heysteff's MCP server?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard created by Anthropic. heysteff's MCP server lets you configure your workspace — agent, flows, tools, channels — from your own AI, in addition to the dashboard.

Does the agent understand voice notes and images?

Yes. It transcribes voice notes (speech-to-text) and has vision: it reads images and payment receipts customers send, so it can reply with real context.

How much does heysteff cost and how is it billed?

You're billed per resolved conversation, not per message or per seat. There's a Free plan (50 conversations/month, no card required) and paid plans starting at $149 USD/month (Starter), $299 (Pro) and $549 (Max), each with more channels, users and tools included.

Does heysteff work outside LATAM or in English?

Yes. heysteff is multilingual and multi-country: it serves businesses in LATAM, the US and Europe, and the agent replies in whatever language the customer writes in.
