Can my AI predict when my silo will run empty based on current usage?

Yes! Use the `get_days_to_empty` tool with your silo ID. GrainSure AI analyzes current fill levels and historical usage patterns to predict exactly how many days until the silo runs empty, with a confidence score. For deeper analysis, combine with `get_usage_history` to see the consumption trends that drive the prediction. This gives you proactive warning to schedule deliveries before running out.

How do I set up low stock alerts for my silos?

Use the `update_silo_settings` tool to configure your low stock threshold percentage (e.g., 20% means alert when silo drops below 20% full). Then use `get_low_stock_alerts` to check for any active alerts. GrainSure will automatically monitor fill levels and trigger alerts when thresholds are breached, giving you timely warning to plan deliveries.

Can I create a delivery order directly through the API?

Yes! Use the `create_delivery_order` tool with the silo ID, quantity in tonnes, and optionally a preferred delivery date and supplier. The API will confirm your order with an order ID and estimated delivery date. You can also use `get_days_to_empty` predictions to automatically trigger orders when silos reach critical levels.
