Trump’s administration's reciprocal tariff scared Wall Street last week. The $6T market cap is gone within two days[1]. The tariff will likely increase the price of merchandising items, especially physical items such as Coach fashion bags and Hoka sneakers. When American consumers do discretionary shopping, they will care more than ever about the price.

In the age of tariff, we're happy to introduce the preview version of AI Price Hunter, a cutting-edge LLM-based AI Shopping Agent. AI Price Hunter is now available on BeyondStyle[2], a client of CloudStore AI. Designed to assist fashion and sports shoppers with price discovery, this agent is here to transform the shopping experience: Given any merchandising item, AI Price Hunter will find the lowest price of that item on the Internet, regardless of whether BeyondStyle has an official merchant partnership with them or not.

The preview version of BeyondStyle AI Price Hunter is in the format of AIGC as shown below. AI Price Hunter helps consumers discover the lowest price. This is especially useful for discretionary shopping such as fashion and sports shopping in the age of tariff.

We are working hard to improve our AI Price Hunter in the following three directions. First, we want to increase the AI agent reliability of AI Price Hunter. Our internal benchmark has shown a very encouraging baseline, but we continuously iterate. We aim at improving reliability significantly in the next 60 days. Second, we are experimenting with a variety of foundation models to seek the best balance between the quality and cost. On the cost side, imagine we will run AI Price Hunter for 10 million items each day, even though each run costs only $5 cents, we have to allocate a $500,000 budget PER DAY for AI Price Hunter in action, a significant amount of investment. On the quality side, we prefer the large language models which are natively multi-modal. We are optimizing AI agent performance with foundation models from all over the world including the USA and China. We are also optimizing agent performance with foundation models both closed sourced and open sourced. Third, we are making the AI price hunter more interactive with the consumers. It matches our mission well: make global commerce automatic, intelligent, and interactive.

The AI Price Hunter will be available to more clients of CloudStore AI soon as a part of CloudStore AI APIs. We are looking forward to the wider adoption of AI Price Hunter. Please contact us[3] for more information if you are interested in the partnership.
