Answer the sizing question before the customer buys the wrong frame

Customers write about sizing, compatibility, repair slots and delivery, often with photos. Flatdesk collects those in one queue and answers the routine ones from your help center, at $49 per agent per month, or $39 billed yearly.

The Flatdesk inbox with open conversations, owners and an AI answered label

What it does for this

  • Answers for sizing and fit

    Publish size guides, compatibility notes and care tips. The AI replies from them.

  • Saved replies for repairs

    Save your repair quote, drop-off and collection replies as macros.

  • Assign by department

    Route sales, workshop and warranty messages to the right person.

  • A seasonal auto-reply

    Tell customers about longer workshop waits in spring.

  • One queue for the whole shop

    Email and chat arrive in the same inbox, with an owner on every message.

Where it falls short

If you need these today, another help desk fits better.

  • No booking, stock or point of sale. Keep those in your shop systems.
  • No phone line for walk-in queries.

Questions

Does it book repairs?

Can it handle a spring rush?

Flat pricing means a busy month costs the same as a quiet one.
