Need to see what's selling? Run `list_products` and get an overview of all items in the catalog without leaving Claude Desktop. This is perfect for PMs who need live API data fast.

The `list_customers` tool pulls a list of all buyers in the system. This is key for running reports on who’s purchasing and how often they buy. Want to check discount eligibility?
