4.7 · 13 reviews · bitChat on the Shopify App StoreEmail is still where serious questions land. bitbybit answers them in context.
You run customer email through Outlook and Microsoft 365 — post-purchase support, B2B and wholesale back-and-forth, returns, the questions that need a paper trail. The mailbox is your system of record, and your team knows the Focused Inbox cold.
But that email sits in its own silo. The agent reading a returns email can’t see the WhatsApp thread where the same shopper just asked about sizing. Context lives in two apps, history gets retyped, and nobody owns the whole picture of one customer.
Connect the mailbox and every Outlook conversation lands on the same customer record as that shopper’s WhatsApp, Instagram, and Messenger threads. One AI agent reads the full history, drafts the reply, and answers email and chat from the same place — inside the thread, on the record you own.
What Microsoft Outlook + bitbybit looks like.
A message from any channel lands on the same agent — and the same customer record.
What can bitbybit do with Microsoft Outlook?
- Read and reply to Outlook and Microsoft 365 email from the same AI agent that handles WhatsApp and chat.
- Link each email thread to one shared customer record, so agents see the full WhatsApp and email history without app-switching.
- Let the AI agent draft email answers grounded in that customer’s real order and conversation context, then send through your mailbox.
- Keep email and WhatsApp in two-way sync — sent from bitbybit, it appears in your Outlook Sent folder; sent from Outlook, it appears in the bitbybit inbox.
- Route email and chat to the right teammate from one inbox, so post-purchase and B2B email stop falling through the cracks.
You keep Microsoft Outlook. bitbybit layers on top.
- Outlook stays your mailbox and your source of truth. bitbybit reads and sends through Microsoft 365 — it doesn’t move or copy your email anywhere else.
