Short answer

How can I track orders and inventory with my AI?

Your AI uses Extensiv to pull live shipping statuses and stock counts from your warehouse locations. You'll get immediate answers to specific order or product questions. Here is how it works.

Where your data lands

Real-time warehouse insights

The AI processes your questions and delivers these specific outcomes.

STATUS

Order tracking

The AI pulls current shipping and fulfillment data. You get the exact stage of any specific shipment.

STOCK

Inventory counts

The AI checks stock levels across your entire warehouse network. You'll know exactly what's on hand for any SKU.

LISTS

Order summaries

The AI generates lists of recent orders. This helps you see recent activity without opening a dashboard.

HUMAN

Manual updates

The AI cannot change stock levels or modify order details. You still handle all physical warehouse movements and data edits yourself.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and your Extensiv data.

  1. Identify the request

    Your AI analyzes your message to see if you are asking about a specific order, a product, or a general list.

    list_orders
  2. Fetch order status

    If you ask about a specific shipment, the AI pulls the latest status directly from your warehouse system.

    get_order_status
  3. Check inventory

    When you ask about availability, the AI looks up the current quantity for that item across your locations.

    get_product_inventory
  4. Verify order lists

    For broader questions, the AI pulls a list of orders to give you a clear overview of recent activity.
