Insta DM and Website inquiries handler AI bot

so recently i setup a customer inquiry / sales ai agent for Mero Style, a print on demand business platform.

AI chatbots are probably not so much of a big deal these days however what’s interesting is the cost of deploying this is so cheap!

I created a PDF which has lots of information about the business and potential questions customers might ask. I uploaded this doc in Open AI and setup an assistant.
I created an Edge function in Supabase which connects with Open AI assistant and also stores historical conversations for a user session in db.
For handling website inquiries, this setup is enough. For Instagram DMs, I have additionally ManyChat setup to receive and send messages.

Supabase has a big generous free plan. ManyChat has $15/month and Open AI assistant is also quite cheap for text inquiries.

So I have a great Sales Agent for less than $20 a month!

If anyone is interested in this setup and need help, feel free to ask 🙂
