# AI Assistants

Mercuri’s AI Assistants are smart virtual helpers that chat with your customers anytime, day or night. 

They can answer questions about 

* products or services, 
* help people find what they’re looking for, 
* share order or booking updates, 
* and even complete a purchase or reservation right in the chat. 

This keeps customers happy, engaged, and coming back, while saving your team from repeating the same tasks over and over.
