Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our answers.

Getting started

How do I install Heylio?

From the Shopify App Store, or by creating an account if you are not on Shopify. You give Heylio your content, connect your email and the chat, then choose your rules. Details are on the How it works page.

Which email inboxes are supported?

Gmail (and Google Workspace) and Outlook (and Microsoft 365): they connect without us ever seeing your password. Other inboxes (OVH, Infomaniak…) plug into the standalone dashboard.

Do I need Shopify?

No. On Shopify, Heylio can also act on orders. On PrestaShop, WooCommerce and BigCommerce, it reads orders and stock. Without a store, it answers from your content.

The AI

Does Heylio reply without my approval?

At the start, no: everything waits for your approval. You then choose, for each of the three levels (answer, act, spend), whether it acts on its own or after approval. A cap in euros limits what it can spend on its own.

Which AI model does Heylio use?

Anthropic's Claude models. Every answer is based on your own content.

What does it do when it doesn't know?

It doesn't make things up. It drafts a reply for review or hands the conversation to your team. This handover is never billed.

Can it refund or cancel an order?

Yes, for Shopify stores: cancel an order, refund, change an address, create a discount code. On its own or after approval, depending on your settings, and every action is written in the log. For parcel tracking, Heylio replies with the status and tracking link read from the store: it does not trigger any sending.

Pricing

What is a resolution?

Heylio replied on its own and the customer didn't write back for 72 hours. If a human takes over the conversation, it doesn't count. If you disagree, you dispute it in one click.

What happens when the limit is reached?

On the Free, Starter or Growth plan, Heylio pauses and warns you beforehand: you reply by hand, change plan or, outside Shopify, add a pack. On the Scale plan, Heylio does not pause.

Can I stop whenever I want?

Yes. There is no commitment. Shopify stores pay on their Shopify invoice (plans in US dollars), others by card (in euros).

Data

Is my data secure?

Gmail and Outlook connect without us ever seeing your password, and access keys are encrypted. We have no SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification.

Is Heylio GDPR compliant?

Yes. A customer's data is deleted on request. Details are in our privacy policy.

Is my data used to train the AI?

No: our privacy policy states it, your data is not used to train the models.

Compatibility

Does Heylio work with Gorgias, Zendesk or Front?

Yes: it leaves a draft reply in the ticket, and your agent is the one who sends it. Heylio sends nothing to the customer from these tools.

Which languages does it reply in?

In the customer's language, among seven: English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Dutch and Portuguese. The dashboard is available in six languages.
