About MK Assist

MK Assist provides AI customer operations for small and medium-sized businesses in South Africa. Its assistant answers routine customer questions, captures what each customer needs and brings in the right person when human attention is required.

The service runs on WhatsApp, the channel most South African customers already use, so businesses can handle every enquiry consistently without a large support team. MK Assist publishes pricing and use cases for different types of business. It operates with a small team of 2 to 10 people, according to LinkedIn.
