Ask AI about this page

Short answer

Can I check my stock levels through my AI?

Yes. Your AI client pulls live product data and stock counts directly from Commerce.js. You can ask for specific item availability or browse entire categories through a simple chat interface.

The results you get.

Inventory insights on demand.

Your AI handles the data retrieval so you don't have to hunt through menus.

LIVE DATA

Real-time stock checks

The AI pulls current inventory numbers from your catalog. You get the exact count for any SKU you ask about.

CATALOG

Product discovery

Your agent can scan through your entire product list or specific categories. This makes finding items much faster than manual searching.

DETAILS

Deep product lookups

Beyond just stock, your AI can pull specific product attributes. It retrieves the exact details you need for any item in your store.

HUMAN

Manual updates needed

The AI can read your data but cannot change it. You still need to use your Commerce.js dashboard to edit prices or adjust stock levels.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask for stock.

The AI translates your natural language questions into specific data requests.

  1. Scanning the catalog

    When you ask about your general inventory, the AI pulls a full list of your items to see what's available.

    list_products

  2. Filtering by category

    If you ask about a specific group of items, the AI narrows its search to just that section of your store.

    list_categories

  3. Fetching specific items

    For questions about a single product, the AI pulls the full data object for that specific item.

    get_product

  4. Reporting availability

    The AI compares the requested item against the current stock levels and gives you a plain English answer.

    get_product

FAQ

How the inventory check behaves

    No. The tools provided only allow the AI to access product and category information.

    No. The AI can only see and report on the products it can find through your Commerce.js account.

  • 04

    How often does the AI see stock changes?

    The AI sees changes immediately because it pulls live data from your store every time you ask a question.
