Build AI Phone Receptionist for Offline garment Sales (Vapi / [login to view URL] + Shopify API) We are looking for an experienced AI Voice Developer to build a fully automated phone receptionist to handle inbound garment sales. Our target audience is older/offline individuals who do not use smartphones or the internet. The entire order process—including selecting garment variations and processing payments—must happen smoothly over a standard voice call and sync directly with our Shopify store. Scope of Work & Requirements 1. Shopify Catalog Sync & Variation Collection The AI agent must greet callers and collect order data naturally. It must fetch live inventory from our Shopify store using the Shopify Admin API to verify stock. It must gather product variations: Quantity, T Style, Color, and Size (supporting multiple variants in a single order, e.g., "two Blue Mediums and one Black XL").The AI must dynamically create a Shopify Draft Order in the background during the call. 2. Hybrid Payment Processing (Voice + Keypad)The AI must transition to a secure payment step once the customer verbally confirms their order summary. Hybrid Input: The system must allow the caller to either speak their credit card details (Card Number, Expiry, CVV) OR type them into their phone keypad (using DTMF tones). The AI must listen for both simultaneously. The system must securely process the payment in real-time through our payment gateway API (e.g., Stripe, Shopify Payments, or [login to view URL]) and mark the Shopify order as Paid. 3. Security, Privacy, and Fail-Safes Privacy Compliance: The setup must feature automatic audio and transcript masking. Credit card numbers must never be recorded or stored in plain text anywhere in the logs. Keypad Fallback: If background noise prevents the AI from hearing spoken card numbers, it must gently instruct the caller to use their phone keypad instead. Preferred Tech Stack We want to keep ongoing platform costs low. We prefer a build using: Voice Platforms: [login to view URL], [login to view URL], or Twilio Voice.E-commerce Platform: Shopify Admin API (Draft Orders, Products).Integration/Logic: [login to view URL], Zapier, or a simple Node.js/Python backend. Identifying and Handling Time-Wasters Budget & TimeLine Project Type: One-time, fixed-price project. Estimated Budget: $150 - $450 (depending on experience). Expected Delivery: 1 to 2 weeks. How to Apply Please reply with: Examples of previous AI voice agents you have built (especially any involving Shopify integrations or phone payment capture). Your recommended tech stack for this specific project to keep per-minute costs low. Your estimated timeline and total fixed price for a working prototype.

Hi — Elias here from Miami. I see you're looking to create an AI-based phone receptionist for your garment sales. This system can significantly enhance customer interaction and streamline operations in retail. What usually matters most here is ensuring the AI handles diverse customer queries while integrating smoothly with Shopify for payment processing. A common issue in systems like this is managing workflow complexity, especially with voice modulation and maintaining a natural conversation flow. The tricky part is ensuring the AI can adapt to various accents, which is crucial for a positive user experience. My approach would focus on building a robust architecture that prioritizes scalability and maintainability. I’d utilize well-defined APIs for seamless integration with Shopify and a modular design for future enhancements. This ensures we can easily add features without a complete overhaul. I have experience with similar AI implementations in retail, where I developed systems that effectively handle customer interactions and payments. A few questions to better understand the scope: Q1 – What specific user roles will the AI need to interact with? Q2 – How do you envision the integration with the Shopify API? Q3 – Are there particular voice characteristics you prefer for the AI? Happy to discuss the details and suggest the best technical approach. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hello there, I will build your AI phone receptionist that fetches live Shopify inventory, collects garment variations (style, color, size), creates draft orders mid call, and handles hybrid voice plus DTMF payment capture with full card masking. On a recent Vapi integration, using DTMF fallback as the default for card entry cut failed payment attempts significantly. Questions: 1) How many garment SKUs and variation combos are active in your Shopify catalog right now? 2) Is your payment gateway already Stripe, or are you open to choosing based on cost? Share your Shopify store URL and I will map the catalog structure today. Ready to start whenever you are. Kamran

Hello!, This is James from Hollywood... I read your project description carefully, and I understand the goal: build an AI phone receptionist for offline garment sales that can answer calls naturally, qualify shoppers, handle product questions, and connect with Shopify data using Vapi or Bland.ai. This is exactly the kind of AI automation + ecommerce integration work I’ve been doing for years. I have about 15 years of experience in full-stack development, AI automation, voice systems, and API integrations. I’ve built production systems with OpenAI, n8n/Zapier, custom backend services, and Shopify integrations, so I’m confident I can deliver something reliable, practical, and easy to operate. My approach would be: 1. Map the call flow and customer journey 2. Set up and tune the AI voice agent 3. Connect Shopify for products, inventory, and order lookup 4. Handle payment-related flow if needed 5. Test real call scenarios and refine for a smooth launch Relevant work I’ve delivered includes: - AI order assistant for a boutique clothing store - Voice lead qualification agent for a local retail chain - Shopify product inquiry automation for a lifestyle brand Could you please clarify the following questions to help me better understand the project? 1. Should the receptionist only answer product and order questions, or also collect lead details and book callbacks? 2. Do you want it to check live Shopify inventory and pricing during the call? 3.

Building a voice receptionist that handles full garment orders over a phone call is exactly the kind of flow where Vapi, Shopify API and hybrid payment capture need to work without friction, so I stopped here. I’ve built voice agents that pull live product data, create draft orders and process payments, plus I’ve worked with keypad fallback and masking for sensitive info. I’d start by syncing your Shopify catalog, then map the conversation flow so the agent can collect variants naturally and create the draft order while listening for both speech and DTMF during payment. Which voice platform do you prefer for cost control? Do you already have the garment catalog structured in Shopify? Should payments run through Shopify Payments or an external gateway? Juan Pablo

Hello, this is a voice-commerce workflow, not just a chatbot, and the hard part is keeping order state consistent while the caller moves through variants, confirmation, and payment. The real engineering risk is orchestration across live speech capture, Shopify Draft Orders, and PCI-sensitive payment steps without leaking card data into transcripts or logs. I’ve built production systems with real-time audio pipelines and API-driven backends, and that’s the lens I’d use here. The closest match is AI Translator Plugin for low-latency streaming audio and live-session reliability. Dent-Cloud is also relevant for separating transactional services and keeping state changes predictable under production conditions. I usually structure this as distinct layers: call/session control, product and inventory lookup, order-state management, and payment execution. For your case, Shopify Admin API should remain the source of truth for catalog and draft order state, with the voice layer only advancing the transaction when each step is validated. I’d also put strict masking, confidence thresholds, and keypad fallback around card capture, with clear retry rules when background noise affects recognition. If useful, I can sketch the call-state architecture and failure paths for inventory, multi-variant orders, and payment retries. Clifton

Hello, do you already have the Shopify payment gateway selected, or should I recommend the safest option for voice + DTMF payment capture? I have experience with AI voice agents, Shopify API, Twilio/Vapi-style call flows, order automation, Stripe payments, and secure backend integrations. I would build a low-cost voice flow that checks live stock, creates draft orders, handles fallback keypad input, and masks sensitive payment data. I can start immediately. Can we have a chat to clarify your requirements? Thanks

Hi, I’ve built voice-first checkout flows for Shopify stores, focusing on natural order capture, live stock checks, and secure payments for callers who aren’t on mobile. Relevant experience signal: I’ve implemented Draft Orders and variant selection in production workflows and wired them to a backend payment step. Execution approach: I’d start by validating the call flow against a subset of SKUs, connect stock verification to Shopify Admin API, create a draft order, and enable a hybrid input payment step that accepts speech or DTMF while masking data. One technical risk / key challenge: PCI-compliant handling and real-time masking of card data in a live call. Two clarification questions: What should happen if a requested variation is out of stock mid-call and we need to suggest alternatives? What are the latency tolerances for live inventory checks, and how should keypad fallback be surfaced if speech is unclear? If we're aligned, I can outline the implementation phases before kickoff.

100% doable, close to a voice AI build I did for a client handling around 400 calls a month, just with Shopify and payment on top here. I'll build this on Vapi or Twilio Voice with Shopify Admin API hooked in for live stock checks and draft order creation during the call, and route payment capture through Stripe's or Twilio's secure DTMF/voice capture so card numbers never actually touch your logs or backend in plain text, that's the real way to stay PCI-compliant instead of trying to build masking ourselves. Keypad fallback for noisy calls, and everything logs cleanly to Shopify as a paid order once confirmed. Can have a working prototype ready within the two weeks you mentioned, ironing out edge cases as we test real calls. Let's do it.
