Your Online Store Deserves a Personal Shopper
Boutique shoppers expect a curated experience. They come to your site because they want something special, not something they can find at a big-box store. Mika gives every visitor the personal attention that makes your boutique different, recommending products, answering questions, and capturing purchase intent around the clock.
92% of boutique website visitors leave without making contact. Mika changes that.
The Boutique Website Problem
Shoppers Leave Without Finding the Right Product
Your boutique has 200 carefully curated products, but visitors browse 3 pages and leave. They did not find what they were looking for because your website cannot ask them what they want. A search bar returns literal keyword matches, not recommendations. The shopper who would have bought the perfect silk scarf never found it.
No Personal Shopping Experience Online
In your physical store, you greet every customer, ask what brings them in, and guide them to the right products. That personal touch is why people shop at boutiques instead of Amazon. But on your website, every visitor is on their own. The curated experience that defines your brand disappears the moment someone shops online.
After-Hours Browsers Get No Help
Most online shopping happens in the evening and on weekends, exactly when your store is closed. A shopper at 9pm has questions about sizing, availability, or gift options, and your website gives them nothing but a contact form. By the time you respond the next morning, they have already found what they needed somewhere else.
Contact Forms Miss Purchase Intent
When someone does fill out your contact form, all you get is a name and email. You have no idea what they were looking for, what their budget is, or why they reached out. That lack of context means your follow-up is generic, and generic follow-ups from a boutique feel wrong. Your brand is personal. Your lead capture should be too.
What Mika Does for Your Boutique
Every feature is designed for how boutique shoppers actually browse and buy. No enterprise complexity. No features you will never use.
Curated Product Discovery
Shoppers describe what they want in natural language. Mika searches your catalog and shows matching products with photos, prices, and availability. No more browsing through pages of products to find the right one.
Personal Shopper Experience
Mika guides each visitor like your best in-store associate. It asks clarifying questions, narrows down options, and presents curated selections based on the shopper's preferences, budget, and occasion.
Gift Recommendation Engine
"I need a gift for my mom under $50" is all Mika needs. It filters your catalog by price range, category, and tags to surface the perfect options. Gift shops and boutiques see higher conversion from visitors who get personalized suggestions.
Size and Variant Guidance
Shoppers ask about sizes, colors, and availability. Mika checks your catalog and answers instantly. "Do you have this in blue?" gets a real answer, not a generic redirect to browse your site.
Lead Capture with Context
When Mika captures a visitor's contact information, you get more than a name and email. You get what they were looking for, their budget range, the occasion, and a summary of the entire conversation. That context turns cold leads into warm sales.
24/7 Shopping Assistant
Your store closes at 6pm. Your website does not. Mika answers questions, shows products, and captures leads at 11pm on a Tuesday, 6am on a Sunday, and every hour in between. No missed opportunities, no unanswered shoppers.
Live in 15 Minutes
No developers needed. No onboarding calls. Three steps and your boutique has a personal shopping assistant.
Paste the Code
Copy one line of JavaScript and paste it into your website. Works with Shopify, WooCommerce, Squarespace, Wix, or any custom site. Mika reads your website automatically to learn about your store, policies, and hours.
Upload Your Catalog
Export your products as a CSV from Shopify, your POS system, or a spreadsheet. Upload it through the dashboard. Mika indexes your entire catalog, including names, descriptions, prices, sizes, colors, and photos.
Start Selling
Mika is live on your site. Every visitor gets a personal shopping experience. Product recommendations, size and availability answers, gift guidance, and lead capture happen automatically while you focus on running your store.
Real Questions Your Shoppers Ask
These are the conversations happening on boutique websites right now. Without Mika, every one of them ends with the shopper leaving your site.
"Do you have this in blue?"
A shopper found a product they love but wants a different color. Mika checks your catalog for available variants and answers instantly, keeping the shopper engaged instead of sending them to dig through your site.
"I need a gift for my wife under $100"
Gift buyers rarely know exactly what they want. Mika asks a few clarifying questions about her style and interests, then surfaces curated options from your catalog within their budget. This is the personal shopper experience that turns browsers into buyers.
"What's your return policy for jewelry?"
Policy questions are the #1 reason shoppers hesitate before purchasing. Mika answers return, exchange, and shipping policy questions instantly using the information from your website and knowledge base, removing the friction that kills sales.
"Is this necklace available for pickup?"
Local shoppers want to know if they can grab something today. Mika confirms product availability and your store hours, then captures their information so you can have the item ready when they arrive.
"Show me your new arrivals"
Repeat customers come back to see what is new. If you tag products as new arrivals in your catalog, Mika surfaces them when asked. This keeps loyal customers engaged and drives repeat purchases without email blasts.
"What would you recommend for a summer wedding?"
Occasion-based shopping is where boutiques shine over big-box retailers. Mika understands the context, asks about dress code and preferences, and recommends outfits, accessories, or gifts that match. This is the curated experience shoppers expect from a boutique.
Psychology-Informed Conversations That Convert
Mika is not a generic chatbot with your product list attached. Every conversation is informed by psychology research on how people make purchasing decisions, continuously refined to guide shoppers from browsing to buying without ever feeling pushy.
Reads Shopper Intent
Mika identifies whether a visitor is browsing casually, searching for something specific, or ready to buy. Each conversation adapts to where the shopper is in their decision process, matching their pace and energy.
Builds Trust Naturally
Boutique shoppers buy from brands they trust. Mika builds trust through helpful, honest recommendations instead of aggressive sales tactics. Visitors never feel sold to, they feel guided.
Guides to Action
Every conversation has a natural arc that moves shoppers from curiosity to commitment. Whether the action is sharing contact info, booking an appointment, or visiting your store, Mika creates a path that feels organic.
Mika's conversation strategy is developed with psychology research and continuously refined. Visitors interact with an AI that feels genuinely helpful, not a script disguised as conversation.
Your Boutique Website: Before and After Mika
The difference between a static website and one that sells.
Why Boutiques Need a Different Kind of AI
Generic chatbots are built for generic businesses. They answer FAQs, redirect to pages, and occasionally capture an email address. That might work for a SaaS company or a corporate website, but it does not work for a boutique. Boutique shoppers are not looking for answers to frequently asked questions. They are looking for the right product, and they need someone to help them find it.
In your physical store, that someone is you or your team. You notice when a customer is drawn to a particular display. You ask what the occasion is. You pull options from the back that match their style. You suggest accessories. You tell them about the designer or the story behind a piece. That personal touch is the reason someone drives past Target to shop at your store.
Mika brings that same personal touch to your website. When a visitor lands on your site, Mika greets them and asks what they are looking for. When they describe a gift, Mika searches your catalog and presents curated options. When they ask about sizing, Mika checks your inventory data and answers. When they are ready, Mika captures their information along with everything they discussed, so your follow-up is as personal as the conversation that started it.
This is not about replacing the human experience. It is about extending it to the hours and channels where you cannot be present. The shopper browsing your site at 10pm deserves the same care as the one who walks through your door at noon.

Learn moreFrequently Asked Questions
How does Mika learn about my boutique's products?
You upload your product catalog as a CSV file through the Mika dashboard. Include product names, descriptions, prices, sizes, colors, and photo URLs. Mika indexes everything and makes it searchable in the chat widget on your site. When a visitor asks about a product or category, Mika searches your catalog and shows matching items with photos and pricing right in the conversation.
Can Mika recommend gifts based on what a shopper describes?
Yes. Mika understands natural language requests like "gift for my wife under $75" or "something for a housewarming party." It searches your catalog for matching products based on price range, category, and description. If you tag products in your CSV with occasion types or recipient categories, Mika uses those tags to make even more accurate recommendations.
Does Mika work with my Shopify or WooCommerce store?
Mika works alongside any e-commerce platform. You paste one line of embed code into your Shopify theme, WooCommerce site, Squarespace page, or any custom website. Mika runs as a chat widget on your site regardless of your platform. Product data comes from a CSV upload or API sync, not from your platform directly, which means it works everywhere without any platform-specific integration.
Will Mika offer discounts or negotiate prices with customers?
No. Mika shows the listed price from your catalog but will never offer discounts, create coupon codes, or negotiate pricing. If a shopper asks about sales or promotions, Mika can mention any active promotions you have configured in your knowledge base, but it cannot create or modify pricing. You control exactly what Mika can and cannot say about pricing from your dashboard.
How does Mika handle questions about sizes and variants?
If your catalog CSV includes size and color information, Mika can tell visitors which sizes and colors are available for a specific product. When a shopper asks "do you have this in a medium?" or "is this available in blue?", Mika checks your catalog and answers based on what you have uploaded. It encourages visitors to confirm availability with your team before visiting, since inventory can change quickly.
Can Mika answer questions about my return and shipping policies?
Yes. During onboarding, Mika reads your website to learn about your store, including policies, hours, and location. You can also add specific policy details to your knowledge base in the dashboard. Mika uses this information to answer questions about returns, exchanges, shipping times, and store policies accurately without you needing to be online.
What happens when my store is closed and someone visits my website?
Mika runs 24/7. When a shopper visits your site at 11pm on a Sunday, Mika answers their questions, shows them products from your catalog, and captures their contact information. You get an email with the shopper's name, what they were looking for, and a summary of the conversation. Many boutique owners report that their highest-quality leads come from after-hours website visitors who are actively shopping with intent to buy.
How much does Mika cost for a boutique?
Mika starts with a free plan that includes ~20 conversations per month*, AI chat, lead capture, and 8-language support. The Core plan at $9.99/month adds ~100 conversations and appointment booking. The Plus plan at $19.99/month includes ~250 conversations, product catalog integration, custom personality, and brand colors. No annual contracts, no hidden fees.
