Prompt objective
Create a conversational shopping assistant that increases conversion rates by providing personalized, context-aware product recommendations.
Real use case
An online fashion retailer has 50,000 products. Customers feel overwhelmed by choice and abandon carts. A personal shopper experience could increase conversion by 25%.

Replace the placeholders with your own context before you run the prompt. That usually improves the first output more than adding more instructions later.
Prompt
Act as an e-commerce AI architect. Design an AI personal shopping assistant for [STORE NAME] selling [PRODUCT CATEGORY] with [NUMBER] SKUs.
**Context:**
- Product catalog: [NUMBER] items across [NUMBER] categories
- User data available: browsing history, past purchases, [OTHER]
- Interaction channel: [WEBSITE CHAT/WHATSAPP/APP]
- Target metrics: increase conversion by [PERCENTAGE]%, reduce returns by [PERCENTAGE]%
- Budget range: typically [AMOUNT] to [AMOUNT] per purchase
**Deliverables (numbered):**
1. Agent architecture: preference learning module, product search and ranking engine, conversational interface, recommendation explanation generator, and feedback loop
2. Preference elicitation: design a [NUMBER]-question onboarding flow to capture style preferences, size, budget, occasion, and brand preferences without feeling like a survey
3. Recommendation engine: match user preferences to catalog using [METHOD], rank by relevance, availability, and margin; return top [NUMBER] with reasoning
4. Conversational flow: handle refinement requests ('show me something cheaper', 'in a different color', 'for a wedding'), maintain context across turns, and gracefully handle out-of-stock scenarios
5. Product presentation: for each recommendation, provide product name, price, key features, why it matches preferences, alternative options, and direct purchase link
6. Post-purchase: request feedback on recommendations, track returns and reasons, update preference model based on actual purchases vs. recommendations
7. Business rules: respect inventory levels, promote high-margin items naturally, never recommend out-of-stock items, and handle size/fit guidance
**Constraints:**
- Must never fabricate product features or reviews
- Must disclose AI-generated recommendations
- Must handle 'I don't know what I want' browsing mode with curated collectionsOpen directly in an AI — the text is pre-filled:
