How to Connect Wherehouse to ClaudeAsk the low-hanging fruit
Start with what should I do today. ChatGPT ranks the next move by rand: Buy Box, stock, losses, recon, listings. The card below is a sample store. Yours uses your catalogues.
Included from Starter. You bring ChatGPT. We bring the live numbers. No chat add-on and no credit pack. A free ChatGPT plan works.
Your catalogues, your rules
You choose what ChatGPT may see. You can switch it off at any time. Your prompts stay in your ChatGPT account. We only hand over the catalogue data you allowed, when you ask.
