Apple Messages channel
Haldane Optical — an independent optician whose workshop answers in a business thread: a faithful Messages-style preview of the live assistant, grounded lens and repair answers, an MCP server over the bench, an in-chat enquiry card, and identified-customer thread lookups.
What this demo shows
It runs the full AI Assistant platform — grounded chat over the brand's own content, tool calls for signed-in actions, and a hand-off to a person when the assistant reaches its limit.
