AI agent for retail sales associates
Customer Appointment and Personal Shopping Prep Agent
Have the right items ready in the room when the client arrives
What it does
A client books a styling session, arrives, and the associate spends the first 20 minutes finding sizes while the client waits. This agent prepares the room. Before each appointment it reads the request and the client's past purchases and returns, finds matching items in stock in the right sizes, requests transfers from other stores for gaps and builds a room-ready list with locations. An hour before the appointment it checks stock again, because items sell. If something is gone, it finds alternatives. The associate approves the final pull and any transfer. Edge case: the transfer will not arrive in time. The agent suggests a similar in-store item and notes the original for later.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides
