Elqori capabilities
Full capability list for Elqori.
Last updated:
This page answers the practical question: what can Elqori help me do? The plus-menu starters are examples, not the complete capability list.
How to use Elqori
- Choose the Elqori Orbit icon beside a page title for help grounded in that page and your current account state.
- Open full-page Elqori when you need more room or want to continue a conversation.
- Use the suggested questions as starting points, or ask the same question in your own words.
- Delete saved conversations from the conversation list when they are no longer useful.
Elqori is local-first. Broader replies run through ChannelWeave’s controlled local model environment rather than a hosted model API. Exact operational answers use recorded ChannelWeave data; broader explanations use that data and approved guidance. When the required information is unavailable, Elqori should say so rather than guess.
Guided actions and drafting
Elqori appears inside selected workflows as well as in chat:
- On Import stock, Elqori can explain the validated file, its destination, Reference fact choices, and the first errors or warnings. After a completed import, Draft missing descriptions with Elqori creates a separate review queue and never overwrites an existing Stock description.
- On Stock item, Elqori can explain catalogue-readiness issues and guide the next step. Any proposed Stock change requires an explicit Apply action.
- In Inbox → Messages, Ask Elqori can draft a plain-text buyer reply for eligible eBay and Website conversations. The draft is placed in the composer; Elqori does not send it.
- In Stock and listing-draft forms, Draft with Elqori prepares concise copy from the approved buyer-visible facts. It does not add unsupported claims about condition, rarity, availability, fulfilment or packaging.
- Add reference facts shows retrieved product facts for approval before they are used. Elqori receives only the facts you approve and does not silently fill required titles.
Facts-first capabilities
1) Profile and orientation
- Greeting responses (
hello,hi) - Thanks acknowledgements (
thanks,thank you Elqori) - Today, yesterday, and tomorrow date questions in the browser's validated time zone
- Identity (
who are you?) - Signed-in account identity (
what is my name?,who am I?) - Light human acknowledgements (
it’s my birthday,I’m stuck) - ChannelWeave overview (
tell me about ChannelWeave) - Capability summary (
what can you do?) - Beginner first-step guidance (
What should I do first?) that can use the signed-in setup checklist to list remaining items in priority order - Setup confidence guidance (
Am I set up properly yet?) - First channel/stock sequence guidance
- Healthy connection and sync-check guidance
- Signed-in plan and billing-status orientation from account context
- Billing-management routing to Settings and Stripe billing controls
- Clean channel-disconnect guidance based on the channel connection contract
- Safe-click, undo, real-data action, team/customer visibility, and permission guidance
- Main-area and core-term explanations for Control Centre, Inbox, Sales, Inventory, Listings, Elqori, channels, connections, listings, orders, and stock items
Elqori’s tone standard is warm precision: corporate-grade, calm, human, and concise. Elqori should understand casual chat without mirroring nicknames, gendered labels, flirtation, or personas, and does not volunteer gendered identity in customer-facing answers. Elqori avoids corporate filler such as “I’m happy to assist with your query” and moves the user towards the next ChannelWeave task.
Greeting and thanks responses may use one subtle Elqori mark (✦). When
ChannelWeave provides the signed-in user’s first name, greeting-only replies may
use it, for example: “Hi Graham — how may I help you? ✦”. Safe direct greetings
to Elqori may adapt the salutation, for example “Hey Elqori” can return “Hey
Graham — how may I help you? ✦”. Longer operational answers that open with the
signed-in user’s name should use Hi {firstName}, unless the user explicitly
opened with “Hey Elqori”. Casual greeting variants such as “hey girl” resolve to
the same professional “Hi” greeting and are not mirrored back. Operational
guidance does not use emojis or decorative marks unless the user explicitly
asks.
Signed-in account identity answers use only the current user's first name, last name, and account name. Elqori does not expose the user email in these answers, does not guess identity from chat text, buyer names, reply drafts, page visuals, examples, or public artefacts, and does not treat “my name is …” messages as profile changes.
Light human acknowledgements stay task-facing. For example, “it’s my birthday” can receive a brief birthday acknowledgement before asking what the user wants help with in ChannelWeave, while “I’m stuck” asks what task the user is trying to complete. When Elqori and linked docs do not unblock the next step, users can open Ask the ChannelWeave team from Elqori surfaces to create a lightweight in-app support request.
2) Operational guidance
- Concepts: stock groups, stock
- How-to guidance: Channels, shipping, Stock, listings, orders, Warehouse, sync health, rules and automation, and Elqori

3) eBay listing setup suggestions
- eBay category/required-aspect prefill suggestions from title seed prompts
4) Stock items and stock groups
- Stock item count (
how many stock items?) - Stock item listing/search by name/SKU

- Stock-group sales ranking (best-selling/top by units/revenue)
- Colloquial range/category sales phrasing such as ranges flying out the door
- Stock-group totals, averages, minimums and maximums with optional filters
- Stock-group sales change drivers:
- Paired-period comparison
- Top stock-group deltas
- Allowlisted Stock Reference-fact breakdowns for Brand, Catalogue number, Colour, Format, Label, Manufacturer, Material, Media Condition, Released, Size and Sleeve Condition, with optional exact values and source scope
- Stock quantities or period sales by those Reference facts, including coverage, currency-separated revenue and qualified gross margin before fees
- Confirmed Discogs release classifications:
- Stock-item, on-hand and available quantities by exact genre or style
- Units, revenue and orders by exact genre or style for a requested period
- Explicit enrichment coverage, including releases not yet classified
- Revenue separated by transaction currency; gross margin before Channel fees only when sales currency matches Inventory valuation currency and every included line has recorded COGS
5) Operational risk checks

How did it go today? - Read-only operational plans for natural requests such as
Put today's work in priority order, using at most three steps from current account data - Low-stock list and low-stock count

- Sync-error summary (recent period)
- Sync-error scoping by channel/source
- Custom insight rule summary (active or paused, warning or fail state, open findings)
- Colloquial insight-rule phrasing such as watchdogs or alerts going off
- Custom insight rule detail (thresholds, current state, latest finding, template-specific evidence)
- Exact stock-item lookup by SKU, including on-hand, allocated, available, and reorder quantities
- Item-level sales ranking by units sold or revenue
- Channel connection status, last successful sync/probe signal, recent failures, and connection attention state

6) Safety boundaries for unsupported factual lookups
For record-specific questions Elqori cannot answer reliably yet, Elqori links to the right ChannelWeave screen instead of guessing. This covers:
- Specific order lookups and status checks
- Other record-specific lookups not listed as supported above

Model-assisted capabilities (governed)
For broader questions, Elqori can explain operational information using recorded ChannelWeave data and clearly state when the available information is insufficient.
For unsupported factual lookups, Elqori does not infer a specific order status or other record-level detail from broad summary information.
Approved operating guidance includes starter coverage for:
- A clear response when no approved guidance is available,
- Stock import failure,
- Missing, blank, no-SKU, or duplicate SKU handling,
- Low-stock next steps,
- Listing mapping and publish blockers,
- Repeated channel sync failure triage.
Additional approved operational knowledge covers:
- Order stock shortages, cancel-versus-hold decisions, partial dispatch, and ship-by risk,
- Negative stock, manual adjustments, wrong-bin/location fixes, and suspicious Website orders,
- Amazon, eBay, Shopify and Website, credential/scope, repeated queue, and channel-data disagreement guidance,
- Buyer offers, order-problem messages, angry buyer responses, returns, refund mismatches, and address-change requests,
- Manager escalations, approval gates, incident triage, audit trails, shift handovers, policy conflicts, and privacy boundaries.
Elqori uses approved customer-specific guidance only when it is relevant to the question.
Examples:
- Comparative trend questions across orders + stock groups,
- Explanation and summary prompts outside exact facts-first questions,
- Practical next-step framing based on available facts.
Important boundaries
- Exact operational answers come from recorded ChannelWeave data.
- Elqori does not automatically reconcile ChannelWeave quantities against another system's stock records. When switching systems, compare the figures manually; import-validation help does not establish cross-system agreement.
- Natural seller phrasing such as “What’s waiting to be posted?” can reach the same facts as the more formal example questions above.
- Plan and billing-status answers use the signed-in account. Users should still open Settings → Home for final plan, trial, renewal, invoice, card, and Stripe portal controls.
- Channel-disconnect answers describe the connection contract: disconnecting removes the account’s channel connection and stored credentials, but it is not a stock, order, or listing delete action.
- Daily operations briefs use account data for sales, fulfilment, Stock, Channel health, Inbox, Warehouse movement, and Custom insight state.
- Operational plans contain at most three read-only priorities. Elqori does not execute the plan or change records.
- Unsupported summary questions receive a clear limitation instead of a guess.
- Custom insight answers use the saved rule, current state, findings and supporting evidence rather than unrestricted data access.
- Elqori should state uncertainty when facts are missing rather than inventing.
