# Pooch

> Pooch is an AI shopping assistant for Shopify stores. It answers shoppers'
> pre-purchase questions from the merchant's own product catalogue — sizing,
> ingredients, compatibility, dimensions, policies — and hands off to a human
> when needed.

Pooch installs from the Shopify App Store and builds its knowledge base
automatically from the store's product descriptions, collections and pages,
staying in sync as the catalogue changes.
