AI Agent FAQ
No, the agent prepares order details and drafts messages, but you must send final orders to vendors yourself. This ensures you retain full control over purchasing decisions.
The agent works alongside your existing tools and processes but does not directly integrate with specific software. You provide the information, and the agent handles the documentation and tracking.
Inventory updates are as accurate as the information you provide. The agent logs and organizes your entries but cannot verify physical stock or detect mistakes in counts.
The agent generates documentation in standard digital formats such as PDF and CSV. You can download, share, or archive these files as needed.
Your data is processed securely and only accessible to you. The agent does not store or share your information beyond your session.
