Product search for AI shopping agents
Your agent passes the shopper's needs in plain words. gaisho returns the products that meet them across US online stores, how many match, and the facts to narrow them down.
Shopper asksOver-ear noise-cancelling headphones under $200 with at least 30 hours of battery life and multipoint Bluetooth. What should I get?
What your agent gets
- How many products match, in which product type, and how each need was read: applied as a filter, used only for ranking, or ignored because no listed spec expresses it.
- Up to 15 candidates, full matches first, each with its price after coupons, unit price, rating and review count, seller and image.
- Where each product's price sits among products with the same key specs.
- When many match, the facts to narrow them: the price range and, for each spec the shopper hasn't stated, its values, how common each is and its median price.
- From a known product: the same product at other stores, cheaper alternatives with the same key specs, and models one spec step up or down with the price difference.
- From a photo or a screenshot: the pictured product and similar ones.

How to use it in your agent
Pass the shopper's needs, not guesses
Everything stated is required unless marked preferred. Put alternatives in one request with “or”, and leave out what the shopper didn't ask for.
Recommend a specific offer
Search prices are for comparing candidates. Before recommending, take the price, seller, coupon and link from the same listing.
Check hard requirements
A search hit doesn't prove a product fits. Check must-haves against the listing details and say what stays uncertain.
Limits
- US online retail only.
- Listings that state too little to verify a need are counted apart, not matched.
- Needs that no listed spec expresses are not used as filters; the result says which.
- Stored prices are not live quotes.
