AI / RAG System
Power AI answers with your real product knowledge.
Scouty AI grounds product Q&A, guided buying, support, and sales assistants in your actual products, documents, and assets — with citations on every claim and predictable cost metering.
The problem
Ungrounded AI answers don't belong on a storefront.
A chatbot that answers from training data alone is a liability. Shoppers, support agents, and sales reps need answers tied to your real product knowledge.
- Plain LLMs hallucinate specs, prices, and compatibility
- Without citations, no answer is trustworthy enough to act on
- Stale or partial product data produces confident wrong answers
- Costs balloon when generation is unbounded
How Scouty solves it
Retrieval first, generation second, citations always.
Scouty AI runs hybrid retrieval over your products, documents, and assets, then asks a model to answer using only what was retrieved — and to say 'I don't know' when sources don't cover the question.
- Hybrid keyword + semantic + visual retrieval
- Citations linked to products, document pages, and assets
- Permissioned retrieval — public, partner, internal
- Capped or pass-through generation costs
- Multiple assistants for shoppers, support, and sales
- Evaluation hooks for your own quality bar
What grounded means
Every claim ties back to a source.
The assistant retrieves relevant products and document pages first. Answers cite each source so shoppers, agents, and reps can verify.
Question
Which boots are best for wet trails over multiple days?
Answer
The Trailmaster GTX is the closest match for multi-day wet routes. It uses a GORE-TEX membrane for waterproofing and a Vibram Megagrip outsole for slick rock and mud. The care guide recommends 30 minutes of break-in walking before a multi-day trip.
