Catalog Tool: Connect Your Product Catalog to Your AI Agent

The Catalog Tool lets your AI agent answer customer questions about your products — price, color, fabric, availability — directly from a live inventory you build on your phone. You photograph products in the Catalog app, AI auto-detects all attributes, and once you connect the shop to your agent it can sell from it across WhatsApp and Instagram 24/7.

Step 1: Open the Catalog App

In your TailorTalk dashboard, click Catalog in the left sidebar. You will see the Catalog overview page with a QR code.

Scan the QR code with your phone to open the Catalog app in your mobile browser. No app store download is needed — it runs directly in your phone's browser and can be added to your home screen.

Step 2: Create Your Shop

When you first open the Catalog app, you will be prompted to create a shop.

  1. Enter a Shop Name (e.g. "Shiva's Shop").
  2. Select a Shop Category — choose Garments for sarees, lehengas, kurtis, and ethnic wear, or Other for general merchandise.
  3. Tap Create Shop.
Create Your Shop form in the Catalog app

Garments vs Other: Garments shops get dedicated AI detection for fabric type (silk, chiffon, cotton), color, and ethnic wear category. Other shops use a flexible custom attributes system.

Step 3: Add Products — AI Attributes Them Automatically

Once your shop is created, tap the Add button (bottom right) and photograph your product or upload an image from your gallery.

The AI scanner will automatically:

  • Upload the product image
  • Detect name, color, fabric, category, description, and tags

Review the AI-detected details, set the price and quantity, then save. Your product is live in inventory instantly.

Step 4: Manage Your Inventory

After adding products, your inventory grid shows all items with stock status, price, and product code. You can:

  • Search by title, code, tags, or any attribute
  • Filter by In Stock, Low Stock, or Out of Stock
  • Mark items out of stock or restock with a single tap

Step 5: Connect the Catalog to Your Agent

Once your shop has products, go back to the TailorTalk dashboard and navigate to Agent Setup. Scroll down to Add Tool and click it.

In the Select Tool modal, scroll down and select Catalog.

Your agent now has full access to your product catalog. It can answer questions like "do you have this in blue?", "what's the price of the silk saree?", or "what's currently in stock?" — automatically, on WhatsApp and Instagram, 24/7.

What Your Agent Can Do With the Catalog

  • Answer product queries by name, color, fabric, category, or price
  • Check real-time stock availability
  • Share product images and descriptions in conversation
  • Handle queries across WhatsApp, Instagram, and Website Chat simultaneously

Tips

  • Add multiple shops under one account if you manage multiple brands or outlets. Each shop connects as a separate Catalog Tool.
  • Keep stock updated — mark items out of stock in the app so your agent never quotes products you can't fulfill.
  • Up to 5 images per product — use all 5 for different angles; the agent shares whichever is most relevant.
