The problem
A WhatsApp-based job platform (Altur), Harambee Youth Accelerator's move from a mobisite to WhatsApp, and eButler's WhatsApp ordering with payments through Flash.
Fashion-commerce recommendations usually optimise for another purchase without understanding what the customer already owns.
Direct ordering and order management: menus, orders, payments and fulfilment, with automated order intake and status updates that cut merchants' operational overhead.

—
Fashionly grounds recommendations in the user's wardrobe, builds outfits from existing items and recommends products only where a genuine wardrobe gap exists. Khanya, a LangGraph stylist with about 15 typed tools, handles wardrobe access, catalogue search, saved looks and human-stylist bookings.
