CART is managed revenue execution infrastructure for moments of hesitation.

Short for Conversational Automated Revenue Technology, CART is built by SalesLead.ai to recover revenue that would otherwise be lost at checkout.

Abandoned Cart Recovery is our first Revenue Engine running on it, live today.

CART acts as a sales concierge for cart abandoners. When a shopper hesitates at checkout, it starts a real, two-way SMS exchange, not a scheduled blast.

  • Answers product questions
  • Resolves objections
  • Guides shoppers back to checkout naturally, without leaning on a discount code to close the gap

It runs alongside your existing Klaviyo email flows rather than replacing them. Operations are fully managed by SalesLead.ai.

Incremental 10–15% recovery rate on top of whatever those flows already capture.

Most brands stitch together a different tool for every stage of the funnel. CART is the opposite: one infrastructure, one data layer, a growing set of engines that all run on the same rails.

We call this Revenue Execution as a Service (REaaS). CART is the infrastructure. Abandoned Cart Recovery is the first engine running on it.

Why effective rate matters: your first interactions are priced at higher bands, and incremental volume gets cheaper as you scale. The effective rate is total monthly cost divided by total monthly interactions, which naturally drops as volume grows.

What You Need to Know

What is abandoned cart SMS recovery?

Re-engaging shoppers who abandon their cart using text messages. SMS achieves 90%+ open rates, well above email's 20-30%. Because CART opens a real two-way conversation, 45-60% of shoppers actually reply, a response rate that doesn't exist for one-way blasts or email.

How long does it take to go live?

5-7 days, pending A2P 10DLC carrier approval. No developer work required. SalesLead.ai handles integration, carrier registration, and compliance setup end-to-end.

How does CART work with my existing Klaviyo flows?

CART runs alongside Klaviyo, it doesn't replace it. SMS recovery targets abandoners who didn't open your email, adding an incremental recovery layer on top.

What does "conversational AI" mean in practice?

Instead of a scheduled blast, CART opens a real two-way dialogue. It asks what stopped the shopper, addresses their hesitancy, and guides them back to checkout, drawing on training across 9+ ecommerce categories including beauty, wellness, apparel, footwear, jewelry, food and beverage, and home goods. It can also suggest complementary products or pairings to help increase order value.

Is CART real-time?

Yes. CART fires within 15 minutes of cart abandonment, while purchase intent is still active.

Who operates and manages CART?

SalesLead.ai, end-to-end: integration, A2P 10DLC registration, TCPA compliance, and ongoing SMS operations. No dashboard to manage, no team to train.

How does agency integration work?

CART operates inside your existing agency stack without disrupting current systems, with terms ranging from a simple introduction fee to ongoing commission.

What Shopify tiers qualify, and is there a minimum volume?

Built for high-volume Shopify Plus and Advanced brands. No fixed minimum. Lower volume can still work well for higher-ticket stores.

Do shoppers know they're interacting with AI?

Yes. If a shopper asks whether they're speaking with a person or an AI, CART discloses that clearly and immediately, consistent with applicable disclosure requirements.

Your Recommendation, Backed by Zero Risk to Your Client

We partner directly with brands and with the growth agencies that serve them. Terms range from a simple introduction fee to ongoing commission for partners who want to own the relationship.

When you bring a client to CART, they start with the Revenue Proof, 250 carts, no cost, no commitment, so the recommendation carries zero downside for the relationship you've built with them.

For 25 years, I watched big companies leverage their resources to provide their customers with a high-touch experience - real attention at the moments that mattered. Ecommerce brands rarely got access to any of that. Their customers got a follow-up email an hour later, maybe.

That gap is what CART exists to close.
