ShopMessage vs. Octane AI: A Deep Dive

With 1.3 billion users, open rates as high as 80% and click-through rates of 40%, there is a lot of value in using Facebook Messenger bots for your ecommerce business.

Octane AI and ShopMessage are both chatbot builders for Facebook Messenger. Merchants use both platforms to build chatbots that send messages to subscribers and automate marketing done through Messenger.

Beyond that, there are some differences. Octane AI’s entire philosophy is focused on being a chatbot builder for the entire ecommerce customer journey. If you’re selling a product or service online, Octane AI is the way to go. Using Octane AI, merchants can do the following with Messenger marketing:

  • Automatically send abandoned cart notifications that recover more abandoned carts than just email alone
  • Recommend products to visitors based on their browsing history
  • Automate customer service and check on a customer’s order status without opening up another tab
  • With AI, you can train your bot and have it become better over time
  • Integrate natively with popular ecommerce apps like Klaviyo, Yotpo, Gorgias, Recharge and more without having to use Zapier

Plus much more. Octane AI is the Messenger Chatbot platform for ecommerce merchants. See how the features for ShopMessage and Octane AI compare below.

“Octane AI is a total game changer. After relying on ineffective email marketing for years, I decided to make the move over to messenger marketing. My expectations were completely shattered within the first few weeks. Octane AI has allowed me to amass tens of thousands of followers that I can have impactful and meaningful conversations with that provide both them and myself value.

In addition to being able to instantly communicate with your most loyal fans/customers, Octane's integration with Shopify has boosted revenue for one of the best quarters I've ever had. Octane's abandoned cart messages is one of my favorite features! Lastly, Octane's customer service is beyond great. I know that if I ever have a question, I can expect an answer or a tutorial within a few hours. All in all, Octane AI is absolutely one of, if not, the best messenger marketing systems out there. I could not recommend it more!”
