Hi All,
I am trying to build an chatbot MVP with build ship and flutterflow. My ask is how to build an API workflow for an AI powered chat that can act as an assistant to build up conversation using previous chat, upsell/cross sell and aid in reducing customer churn and drop off. Also, I assume I need to connect with a database/CRM from where it can retrieve past orders, chat, service tickets and continue with the conversation.
Please help.

AI Response
To build an AI-powered chatbot for your project using BuildShip and FlutterFlow, you can follow a structured approach, which involves setting up API workflows and integrating with a database or CRM for a comprehensive assistant. Here’s a guide to help you get started:
Step 1: Setting Up AI Assistant API Workflow
1. Use AI Assistant Nodes:
- BuildShip provides nodes that can be used to create an AI assistant capable of maintaining conversations, upselling, cross-selling, and reducing customer churn.
- Explore OpenAI Assistant or Claude Assistant nodes in BuildShip, which can be configured for your chatbot.
2. Retrieve and Save Conversations:
- Utilize the
Memory & Conversation feature of the AI Assistant. Through nodes like Create Document, you can store chat history in databases for future reference, enabling the assistant to build upon previous conversations.
3. Contact and CRM Integration:
- For retrieving past orders, chat logs, and service tickets, integration with a CRM is essential. You can use pre-built integration nodes such as the Create Deal node for HubSpot to manage customer data efficiently.
Step 2: Connect with Databases/CRM
1. Choose a CRM for Integration:
- You may use HubSpot integration nodes to manage deals and customer information.
- These nodes will assist your assistant in fetching customer data to offer personalized upsells or address service tickets.
2. FlutterFlow API Calls:
- Ensure that you have API endpoints exposed in BuildShip which FlutterFlow can call. These should handle incoming requests and send responses back, facilitating seamless integration.
Step 3: Database Management
1. Storing Past Interactions:
- Use BuildShip’s database capabilities to store past interactions and tickets.
- This stored data can serve as context for the AI to provide a more personalized experience.
2. Retrieving Customer Information:
- Create workflows that query databases to retrieve necessary customer information that can be used during chat sessions.
