How SundayAI Helped The Merry Go Round Engage Hundreds of Leads and Double Its Response Speed

"Before SundayAI, we were drowning in inquiries. Now, I finally have time to focus on growing the business instead of chasing replies. It's like hiring a superhuman team member who never sleeps."

— Dave Tai, Brand Manager, The Merry Go Round

The Merry Go Round (TMGR) is a design-forward, sustainability-focused company in Singapore that turns waste into wonder—offering stunning tiles and building materials made from recycled plastic, ceramic waste, and more. But behind the bold mission and beautiful products was a growing operational pain point: customer engagement.

"As we grew, so did the number of questions—product specs, lead times, custom orders. It got to a point where it was hard to keep up without slowing the team down," shared Dave Tai, Brand Manager at TMGR. "We needed a solution that could keep pace with our growth without sacrificing the warm, human feel we're known for."


The Challenge: Scaling Conversations Without Losing the Personal Touch

With increasing website traffic and demand from architects, interior designers, and eco-conscious homeowners, TMGR found itself:

  • Struggling to respond to high volumes of inquiries quickly
  • Losing potential customers due to response delays
  • Lacking a flexible platform that could integrate smoothly into their existing workflow

That’s when they partnered with SundayAI, a generative AI platform that builds LLM-powered chatbots designed for real conversations—seamless, smart, and deeply customizable.

About The Merry Go Round

At its heart, TMGR is a brand that turns discarded materials into design statements. Its hero product, Robries, is a polymer sheet made entirely from recycled plastic—think shampoo bottles, food containers, and bottle caps, reimagined into sleek, stain-proof, and stunning surfaces.

Each sheet of Robries is:

  • Weatherproof and termite-resistant
  • Available in rich, earthy hues like Seaweed, Dark Fungi, and Peach
  • Unique, with no two pieces alike

Whether you’re cladding a wall or topping a table, Robries is more than material—it’s a message.
