Business automation

Build a shopping assistant grounded in catalog and stock

Help customers choose without inventing specifications or availability.

Find the decisive constraint

Ask about intended use, budget and non-negotiable requirements such as size or compatibility. Match against documented catalog fields. Leave unknown specifications unknown rather than borrowing facts from similar products.

Check live availability

Read stock and price from the authoritative system and recheck at purchase confirmation. A recommendation can become unavailable. If no alternative meets the requirement, say so rather than silently weakening the match.

Measure fit, not clicks

Review returns and follow-up questions after recommendations. Test missing specifications, changing inventory and revised budgets. Explain both the match and limitations so customers can make informed choices.
