AI assistant for bakeries: orders for cakes and breads in one place
Hands in the dough, phone on the worktop. Slimbot catches orders and queries via WhatsApp, e-mail and your website, asks what, for whom and when, and gathers everything in one team inbox.
Good morning, I'd like to order a cake for Saturday, for a birthday.
Assistant's draft
Congratulations in advance! For how many people, which flavour, and would you like text on the cake? I'd also like to know about any allergies.

In practice
What comes in at bakeries — and what Slimbot does
"I'd like to order a cake for Saturday."
Flavour, number of people, text and collection time are requested; you confirm whether it fits into the schedule.
"Is this bread suitable for a nut allergy?"
The AI gives no answer to this. The conversation goes to your team with priority, who will pass on the correct ingredients.
"Do you still have wholemeal in stock today?"
You reply quickly, with a draft that you adapt to what's in the shop.
"Can we order fifty sandwiches for a meeting?"
Quantity, date and collection or delivery are requested; price and confirmation remain with you.
"When are you open at Christmas?"
Answer from your knowledge base with your public holiday schedule.

AssistantCongratulations in advance! For how many people, which flavour, and would you like text on the cake? I'd also like to know about any allergies.
CustomerFor 12 people, apple tart, and my son can't have nuts.
AssistantThank you. I'll pass the nut allergy on to the baker, who will confirm whether it's possible and what time you can collect it on Saturday.

Ask a question as a customer of a bakery
Choose a question and see how the assistant responds. These are pre-written example answers (not live AI). In your own account, the assistant bases itself on your own data, and you decide whether an answer goes automatically or for approval first.
