What it is
Dots Live Shopping adds live video commerce to an existing ecommerce store. Viewers can watch product streams, ask questions in chat, and buy through the store without leaving it. Merchants can schedule shows, pin products, offer Buy Now purchases, run auctions and flash sales, and turn completed shows into replays, clips, shoppable moments, or page embeds. It connects with Magento 2, Adobe Commerce, Shopify, WooCommerce, and custom or headless stores through SDKs, APIs, webhooks, and adapters. Its widget uses the store’s own quote, checkout, and order system. Broadcasting supports mobile and browser devices as well as OBS and RTMP. Auction settings include starting prices, bid increments, countdowns, pre-bids, and winner reservations; flash sales can set time, quantity, and per-customer limits. Analytics include watch time, chat, add-to-carts, GMV, conversion, and revenue measures, with AI summaries and recommendations. Dots lists web, PWA, iOS, and Android experiences and supports Arabic and English workflows. Pricing is available on request; the product is listed as in active development.
