AI Customer ServiceAI Customer Service

Not a wrapper-around-ChatGPT toy. The bot actually reads your product catalog, FAQ and refund policy, handles roughly 70% of routine questions, and hands complex ones off to a human with the full conversation context preserved.

§ 02 · Scenarios

Scenarios

Common use cases for this service — to help you size the scope and expected outcome.

Cram school LINE bot

Parents ask about courses, schedules, pricing — the bot replies instantly; complex cases hand off to staff.

E-commerce FAQ assistant

Returns, shipping, size charts — answered from your own product pages and policy docs.

§ 03 · Why your support is stuck

Answering the same question a hundred times — leaving no time for actual customer relationships

80% of questions are the same five

Shipping time, returns, sizing, stock, how to exchange — five questions eat 80% of your support day. The answers are already on your product pages, but customers don't want to hunt.

Off-hours = lost deals

Someone wants to buy at 10pm with a question. By the time you reply tomorrow, they've bought from a competitor. 50% of e-commerce orders happen after 8pm.

Your old bot doesn't understand

"My order" → "How can I help?" → "Order" → "Please wait..." — tree-menu bots make customers angrier and damage the brand.

High support turnover

Every new hire gets re-trained on products, processes, return policies. Two months later they leave. That knowledge belongs in a system, not a person's head.

§ 04 · What you get

An AI that actually handles 70% of your support

Not a "Hi, how can I help" template toy. A system that has read your products, FAQs and SOPs, and answers in your brand voice.

§ 06 · Tech stack

Pick the right model = save 80% on cost

The biggest trap in AI support isn't shipping it — it's a monthly API bill that exceeds a human CSR salary. We tier the models: cheap ones for routine questions, smart ones only for complex cases.

Claude Haiku 4.5First line

Handles 80% of routine questions. US$ 1 per 1,000 — 100× cheaper than a human.

Claude Sonnet 4.6Complex escalation

For questions needing judgement (return disputes, special requests). Smarter than Haiku, cheaper than Opus.

pgvectorKnowledge base

Open source, cheap, sufficient. Lives inside Supabase / Neon free tier.

LINE Messaging APITW channel

What Taiwanese customers actually use. Free up to 500 messages/month.

Upstash RedisRate limiting

Prevents API bill blowups from abuse. Free tier works.

Cloudflare TurnstileBot defense

Better UX than reCAPTCHA, free. Blocks 90% of bot abuse.

§ 07 · FAQ

You're probably wondering

  • Q01

    Does the AI hallucinate? What if it gives wrong answers?

    With RAG, the AI can only quote from your documents — it can't invent facts. Every answer includes a source link the customer can verify. When the system can't find a confident answer, it hands off to a human instead of guessing.
  • Q02

    Will the API bill get expensive?

    For typical SMBs with 1,000-5,000 conversations a month, API costs run NT$ 500-2,500. We set daily usage caps — anything over pauses automatically, so bills never blow up. Still far cheaper than one full-time CSR.
  • Q03

    Can it integrate with our existing LINE account?

    Yes. LINE Official Account is the standard integration. If you don't have one yet, setup takes about a week (verification + business account approval).
  • Q04

    Will customer conversations leak?

    No. Conversations live in your own DB (Neon / Supabase). API calls go through Anthropic's zero-retention route — they don't store your conversations for training. We can also add PII filtering (auto-mask phone numbers, card numbers).
  • Q05

    What if the AI can't answer — will customers get angry?

    The AI is designed to say "let me connect you with a person" when uncertain, not to fake it. Most customers are actually satisfied with a clean handoff. What makes them angry is "AI pretends to know and gets it wrong" — exactly what this architecture prevents.
  • Q06

    Will the AI model become obsolete?

    Provider-agnostic architecture — swapping models is an environment variable change. Claude 4.7 ages out → swap in Claude 5 or GPT-5 without rewrites. Every 3-6 months we can tune prompts; small updates fall within the retainer.
  • Q07

    Can we start with just the website widget, no LINE?

    Yes, and we recommend starting there. The website widget is the simplest, most controllable channel. Add LINE after 1-2 months of stable operation to minimise risk.
