Your buyer knows the job, but not the part number
Keyword search cannot do anything with "I need pricing on rivets and hardware for a solar install we’re bidding on." Rapidflare clarifies the spec, filters the catalog, checks live inventory, substitutes what is out of stock, builds the bill of materials and generates the quote.
One conversation, from a described job to a priced quote
Bay Supply’s Rapid Product Selector, live and powered by Rapidflare.
It ends at a transaction, not just an answer
Every other product-discovery tool hands the buyer a list and hopes. This one hands them a quote.
- The agent shows its work. The side panel is a live audit trail: every step, decision, and why. Explainability rendered as interface rather than asserted as a claim.
- A stockout becomes a substitution, not a lost order. Cross-reference runs automatically against live inventory, so "unavailable" does not end the conversation.
- It clarifies rather than interrogates. Only the questions that change the answer, presented as options a buyer can tap.
- It reasons over the full catalog, not the subset your search index happens to cover well.
- Your commerce platform’s product APIs, including Adobe Commerce, where we work from the product and search endpoints and the rich attribute data behind them.
- Live inventory, so availability and substitution are real rather than advisory.
- Your quoting experience, including add-to-quote, quote summaries and retrieving a buyer’s existing quotes through the conversation.
- Your CRM, so the resulting lead or quote lands where your team already works.
Building an e-commerce site for your customer? Talk to us
If product discovery and quoting are in your scope, we should be in your stack. We work with the partners who build these storefronts, not around them.
A differentiator you can sell
Natural-language product selection and quoting is the capability your client is asking for and the platform does not ship. It changes the shape of the proposal.
Inside your delivery
We integrate against the platform APIs you are already building on and fit into your implementation, rather than arriving as a separate vendor with a separate timeline.

Common questions
How is this different from AI site search?
Site search returns results, whereas Rapidflare returns a quote. The chain runs discovery, spec clarification, catalog match, live inventory check, substitution where something is out of stock, bill of materials, then a priced quote with freight and lead times, in one conversation, with the reasoning shown throughout.
What if our catalog attributes are inconsistent?
Normalizing the catalog is part of the work, and it is why the recommendations are accurate. We pull the product and attribute data from your commerce APIs and structure it into a product intelligence layer before any agent sits on top of it.
What happens when an item is out of stock?
The agent finds an equivalent and carries it into the quote, telling the buyer what it substituted and why: for example, a different model with the same rating that is in stock and ships same day. That is an order you would otherwise have lost at the availability check.
Can it create quotes in our system, not just display one?
Yes. We integrate with your quoting experience: add-to-quote, quote summary, and retrieving a buyer’s existing quotes through the conversation, and customize what the add-to-quote action does per customer.
We are an agency. How does this work commercially?
Talk to us. We work with implementation and design partners who bring Rapidflare into the storefronts they build, and we are actively looking to add more.
