Watermelon is an AI Agent platform for customer service, developed by a Dutch team, founded in Utrecht, now headquartered in Amsterdam, with more than 10 years of history, serving businesses worldwide.
Purpose: Watermelon aims to help businesses automatically handle repetitive issues in customer service, reduce the manual burden, and give teams more time to handle conversations that require human intervention. Its AI Agent can use a company's existing help articles and company knowledge to answer customer questions, and can perform actions in connected business systems, such as checking order information or handling appointment processes.
Main capabilities:
- AI Agent building: Train AI Agents using the knowledge and workflows the company already trusts, enabling them to answer customers, find the right context, and take action when feasible.
- Omnichannel access: AI Agents can be used across channels such as chat, email, phone, and social messages, providing consistent service across all channels.
- Shared inbox: Teams can follow up on, manage, and reply to all conversations in one shared inbox. When customers need human service, the team can take over instantly and view the full context.
- Performance tracking: Track automation rates, handoffs to humans, and common questions to help continuously improve customer service.
- System integrations: Connect commonly used business tools such as Shopify, Salesforce, Returnless, Magento 2, WooCommerce, Shopware 6, BigCommerce, and others, so the AI Agent has the context needed for accurate answers and actions.
How to use it: Businesses first need to build an AI Agent, training it with their own knowledge and help articles; then connect the required customer communication channels and business systems; the AI Agent can then automatically handle repetitive issues and perform actions. Teams can monitor conversations in the shared inbox and take over when necessary. Watermelon offers a 30-minute demo showing the types of conversations AI can automate, the workload it can reduce, and how to help customers faster.
Use cases:
- Everyday customer inquiries, such as password resets, order status checks, appointment requests, etc.;
- Scenarios requiring 7×24 support;
- Businesses with high volumes of customer inquiries that want to reduce pressure on phone or online customer service;
- Organizations that want to scale customer service capacity without significantly increasing staffing.
