Ask your AI client to look up specific SKUs or request a summary of all available stock across your warehouses. You'll get live counts and location details immediately. Here is how it works.

The outcomes.

What you get from your AI.

Your AI handles the heavy lifting of digging through Cin7 Core data to find the numbers you need.

SKU DATA

Exact item counts

The AI pulls specific stock levels for any SKU you mention. You get the exact quantity currently held in your bins.

LOCATION

Warehouse visibility

Ask where your inventory is sitting. The AI identifies which warehouses hold your stock.

SUMMARY

Total availability

Request a broad view of your inventory. The AI aggregates stock levels from all your locations into one answer.

HUMAN

Manual inventory updates

The AI only reads data. You must still log into Cin7 Core to adjust stock levels or move items between bins.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for stock.

The AI uses specific tools to pull the right data from Cin7 Core based on your question.
