Win shoppers from AI assistants and pay only on the sales they bring
The 10% fee applies exclusively to orders whose journey the store platform records as starting or ending with an AI assistant — all other sales cost nothing.
Every counted order is listed with its source; marking one as "Not from AI" removes its fee, or credits it back against your next invoice if already billed.
7BE generates product answers, clean feeds, verified reviews and store facts that AI assistants can read and cite when recommending products.
Connect via a Shopify app or a WooCommerce plugin; WooCommerce setup is described as taking about two minutes, and no contract is required.
