Overview

Angle Deep Links let you instantly open the AI assistant with a pre-filled question or command - directly from any channel. They help you guide shoppers into specific conversations, improve engagement, and create more personalized shopping experiences.


What Is a Deep Link?

A deep link is a special URL that launches your store’s Angle assistant and sends an initial message automatically.

Example:

<https://demo.askangle.com/#askai:hello>

When someone opens this link, Angle immediately starts a chat with the message “hello.”


Why Use Deep Links

Deep links make it easy to start relevant conversations anywhere you connect with your customers.They can be used on-site, in marketing campaigns, or in ads to drive higher conversions and engagement.


How Merchants Use Deep Links

You can use Angle Deep Links across your entire customer journey:

On Your Store

  • Product pages – “Ask about sizing”

  • Landing pages – “Find the right gift”

  • Support pages – “Need help with returns?”

In Marketing Campaigns

  • Email campaigns – “Chat with us about today’s offer”

  • Social media – “Ask for gift ideas under $50”

  • QR codes on packaging or flyers – “Discover what’s new”

In Advertising

  • Facebook and Instagram Ads – Guide shoppers straight into a chat about a specific collection.

  • Google Ads – Let visitors start a conversation that matches their search intent.

  • Retargeting Campaigns – Bring past visitors back with contextual messages like “Show me what’s back in stock.”

These links help your customers skip typing and go straight to what they’re looking for.
