AI Support for Retail-Tech & POS Integrators

When the POS goes down, the store stops

You install and support the systems retailers run their checkout on. Which means your support line inherits their worst moments: a register frozen at 6 pm on a Saturday, a card reader that won't take payments during a holiday rush, an end-of-day close that won't reconcile. Every minute a merchant can't ring up a sale, they're losing money — and they're calling you.

The problem is the timing, not the difficulty. Most of these calls follow a known script: restart the terminal, check the network, re-pair the payment device, walk through the error code. But they land at nights, on weekends, and in bursts — exactly when a lean help desk is off the clock or already at capacity. So merchants wait, techs get woken up for things a checklist would have fixed, and Monday opens with a backlog.

What Auralis handles for a POS integrator, 24/7

Auralis takes the first response on every merchant request, on every channel, at any hour:

• POS-down triage. A terminal is frozen or offline. The AI walks the merchant through the restart and connectivity checks that resolve most incidents — before anyone is paged.
• Payment device faults. Card reader not reading, chip errors, device won't pair. Guided fixes from your own troubleshooting content.
• Connectivity isolation. Is it the terminal, the router, or the store's internet? The AI narrows it down step by step, so the ticket that reaches a tech says what's actually wrong.
• Self-checkout and peripheral issues. Receipt printers, barcode scanners, cash drawers, scales — the long tail of hardware questions that eats help-desk hours.
• Software how-tos. Price changes, new-cashier logins, refunds, end-of-day close, report pulls. Answered instantly instead of queued.
• Smart escalation. When it is an emergency, the AI collects the store number, device serial, and error details, opens the ticket, and routes it to your on-call tech — who starts with context instead of a groggy discovery call.
• Ticket status updates. "Any news on my ticket?" answered automatically, so merchants stop calling to ask.
• Peak-season surge. Black Friday and holiday weekends multiply call volume; AI capacity scales with it without weekend staffing.

How the modules map to your help desk

• Autopilot — AI agents on website chat and messaging. The front line for how-tos, triage, and reorders.
• Answer — AI that handles phone calls, with transcription and sentiment. Critical here: a merchant with a dead register picks up the phone, and Answer picks up 24/7.
• Assist — an AI co-pilot for your human agents that also manages tickets. Escalated cases arrive pre-filled and triaged; it drafts replies from your knowledge base. This is where teams reach roughly 5x agent productivity.
• Audit — automatic quality scoring on every conversation, bot and human, so you can prove support quality to the retailers you serve.
• Knowledge Center — the single, governed source of truth the AI answers from. Your device guides, error-code runbooks, and policies go in; the AI answers only from what you've approved, so it never invents a fix.

Proof

Auralis resolves up to ~70% of requests automatically, and the requests that do reach your team arrive triaged and pre-drafted — that's how support teams get to roughly 5x agent productivity.

"A POS-down call at 9 p.m. used to mean voicemail and an angry store manager in the morning. Now it gets answered in seconds, and my team only sees the tickets that actually need a human." — Peter, Head of Support, iOSX

Run your business on e-automate?

Many retail-tech integrators grew out of the office-technology world and run their operations on e-automate, ECI's dealer ERP. Through Auralis's ECI partner integration, approved dealer data — contracts, meter reads, supplies status — syncs read-only into the Auralis Knowledge Center, so the AI answers from your system of record without touching it.
