Emporiqa, the AI shop assistant for WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento, Shopware, Drupal and Sylius stores

An AI chatbot for Shopware 6 that recommends from your catalog

The short answer

The best AI chatbot for a Shopware 6 store reads your catalog natively, recommends a specific product, and answers in the shopper’s language with cross-language search, so a German query finds an English-cataloged product. Emporiqa supports Shopware 6.6 and 6.7 on PHP 8.2+, with documentation live; billing is pay-as-you-go per conversation with the AI model cost included; current rates are on the pricing page.

Shopware stores in the DACH market tend to care about catalog precision and data handling. A chatbot that scrapes the storefront cannot reason about product properties or variant pricing. A native integration reads the catalog the way Shopware models it, so the chat recommends the right product and answers precisely, in the shopper’s language.

Native to the Shopware 6 catalog

Emporiqa reads products, properties, variants, stock, and price from Shopware itself, supporting 6.6 and 6.7 on PHP 8.2+. Because it reads structured catalog data instead of scraped HTML, the answers stay correct and a storefront change does not break it. The plugin installs with Composer or from GitHub, so you can go live now. Shopware’s own AI adds natural-language and image search to the storefront, but no chat assistant.

Precise answers in the shopper’s language

The chat answers in the shopper’s language and runs cross-language search, so a German shopper can describe what they want and find a product whose catalog entry is in English. It recommends a specific product with the reason it fits, answers questions about price or durability, suggests the right variant, and walks the shopper to checkout.

Data handling and pricing

Emporiqa is an EU company and does not train on customer data, and chat history is deleted after 90 days. The databases and search index are hosted in Germany; model calls go to OpenAI in the US. Pricing has no monthly base: billed per conversation with the AI model cost included, billed per AI-drafted email reply you send if you connect your mailbox, free to start with no card, and a monthly limit you set. At the limit the chat is hidden from your shop until the next billing period or until you raise it. Current rates are on the pricing page.

A store that uses Emporiqa, and who builds it
