How it works

How a Calibre AI chat assistant works, from datasheet to live answer

The assistant is loaded with your own product specs, datasheets, price lists and stock data, and kept up to date. On your website it answers product questions at any hour. Your team can search the same information in plain English.

From concept to live in 3 business days

Setup goes from concept to live on your site in 3 business days. Any data format is accepted, because we reformat it to suit.

Manufacturer datasheets can be included once permission has been checked. That check is not automatic.

What the assistant answers

The website chat answers questions about sizes, ratings, compatibility, price and stock, 24 hours a day. It answers from your product information. When it can't confirm something, it says so and hands the question to your staff, rather than guessing.

It also captures quote requests and contact details, so your team has a name and a way to follow up.

An example from the demo catalogue

This conversation is from our demo catalogue. It shows the shape of an answer. It is not a customer's result.

Need hose for a 3,500 psi system, 1/2" ID. What have you got?
The 2-wire R2AT 1/2" hose suits that. It's rated to 4,000 psi working pressure with a 180 mm minimum bend radius, $14.20 a metre, and we have 220 m in stock. Want the matching JIC fittings?
Yes, -08 female swivel.
That's part FIT-JIC08-F, 3/4"-16 UNF, $9.80 each. I can pass this to the team for a quote first thing Monday.

On the website, and for your staff

Website chat

Customers ask product questions on your website, including after hours. Quote requests and contact details are captured for your team, and anything the data doesn't cover is handed across.

Staff catalogue search

A private tool for counter, sales and warehouse staff. They search in plain English for the right parts, specs and stock levels. Staff search can show sources and links.

Sources and links

Staff search can show sources and links. The customer chat links only to documents you have approved. It never links to anything that shows cost pricing, and it never reveals cost information.

Kept up to date

The assistant is kept up to date with your specs, price lists and stock data, so the answers follow the range you actually sell.

Live stock

If you can supply reliable live stock data that our system can access, we can build an integrated system.

Your data

Your data is stored on encrypted servers in Australia. Messages are processed (interpreted) by AI providers on servers outside Australia. We use the latest AI models, and your data is never used for training.

The only chat data we keep is the questions the assistant couldn't answer. We take those to you to clarify, then update the assistant.

Local, and straightforward to deal with
