AI Customer Support with Stripe

Stripe processes payments for millions of businesses. When customers have questions about charges, refunds, subscriptions, or invoices, support agents typically need to log into the Stripe Dashboard to look up payment details. This adds time to every billing-related ticket.

Minimal AI connects to the Stripe API and resolves payment questions automatically. The AI checks charges, payment intents, refunds, subscriptions, and invoices in real time. When a customer asks why they were charged, the AI finds the exact charge in Stripe and explains it. When a refund is requested, the AI processes it based on your policies.

Setup is a few clicks. Connect Stripe and the AI starts resolving billing tickets.

Connecting is effortless. The AI Manager sets everything up for you in minutes - no developers, no complex configuration.
