AI sales for sports, fitness, and outdoor sellers.
Bikes, surfboards, climbing gear, and gym kit all come with "what's the size?" and "how heavy?" questions. Botique pulls from your listing, sends the specs, and locks in the order — while you're on a ride or up the crag.
Where DMs break down
- Sizing in bike frames, wetsuits, and surfboards needs measurements, not labels.
- Outdoor buyers want to know what's in stock before they drive across town.
- Peak weekend inquiries when you're offline using the gear yourself.

Frequently asked questions
Can the bot answer bike-frame, board, or wetsuit sizing questions?
As accurately as your item descriptions allow. Spec-heavy items work best when the description includes measurements, weight, and rider/user range ("54cm frame, fits 175-180cm riders"). The bot quotes those specs verbatim.
Does it handle weekend stock inquiries when I am offline using the gear?
That is the use case. The bot answers DMs at any hour, every day. Saturday morning DM volume gets the same response time as a Wednesday afternoon. There is no off-hours lag.
Can the bot send pickup or test-ride slots?
It can take an order with pickup details. For genuinely bookable slots (test rides, fittings), configure them as service items in your catalog with stock counts (e.g. "Saturday 10am test ride: 1 available") and the bot reserves them just like a product.
Does Botique work for both new and second-hand outdoor gear?
Yes. Every tenant picks a business model (rental, sale, or both) and items are catalogued the same way regardless. Condition notes go in the item description; the bot surfaces them in replies.
