BoxHero
Customers ask about product availability. Your sales team needs stock counts. Warehouse managers want movement reports. Your AI agent queries BoxHero's inventory data in real time and delivers accurate answers within the conversation. No spreadsheets to check, no warehouse calls to make, no guessing.
Your AI agent taps into BoxHero's real-time inventory data to answer stock questions, pull transaction histories, and map warehouse locations during live conversations.

Real scenarios where AI turns inventory queries into instant responses, replacing manual stock checks, spreadsheet lookups, and warehouse phone calls.
A customer browsing your online store asks the chatbot 'Do you have the blue denim jacket in medium?' Your AI Agent calls BoxHero's List Items endpoint filtered by the relevant warehouse location, finds 12 units of that SKU in stock, and confirms availability immediately. The customer adds it to cart with confidence. Your sales team does not get pulled away from high-value tasks to answer a stock check that took the agent two seconds.
Every morning at 8 AM, your warehouse manager asks the agent for yesterday's stock summary. Your AI Agent queries BoxHero's List Basic Transactions with the previous day's date range, categorizes results by transaction type (received, shipped, transferred), and delivers a formatted report showing totals for each category. The morning standup starts with data instead of guesses, and nobody spent 20 minutes building a spreadsheet.
A high-priority order comes in and needs to ship same-day. Your AI Agent calls BoxHero's List Items endpoint for each warehouse location, compares available stock for the ordered SKUs, and identifies the warehouse with sufficient inventory closest to the shipping destination. The fulfillment team gets a routing recommendation in seconds. Orders ship faster, and customers receive deliveries sooner than they expected.

FAQs
The agent calls BoxHero's List Items endpoint, optionally filtered by one or more location IDs. The response includes each item's details and current quantities at each warehouse. The agent matches the customer's product request to the right SKU and returns precise stock counts. Results are live from BoxHero, not cached.
Yes. The List Basic Transactions endpoint accepts start_date and end_date parameters in YYYY-MM-DD format. You can further filter by transaction type (in, out, move), SKU code, or warehouse ID. The agent combines these filters to generate exactly the movement report your team needs.
Log into your BoxHero account on desktop, navigate to Settings, then Integrations and API. Generate a new API token there. This token authenticates all read requests for items, locations, transactions, and team information. Copy it into the Tars tool configuration when connecting BoxHero.
No. Tars queries BoxHero's API in real time during conversations and displays the results, but does not maintain a separate inventory database. Stock levels, transaction records, and location data all live in BoxHero's cloud. Each query fetches fresh data so customers always see current availability.
Yes. The List Items endpoint accepts an array of location IDs. The agent calls List Locations first to retrieve your warehouse setup, then queries items with the relevant location filters. It can aggregate quantities across locations or report per-warehouse breakdowns depending on what the question requires.
BoxHero uses cursor-based pagination. When more items exist beyond the current page, the response includes a cursor token for fetching the next batch. The agent handles this automatically, iterating through pages until the complete inventory list is retrieved or the specific item is found.
The mobile app requires you to open BoxHero, navigate to the right section, and scan or search manually. The AI agent lets your customers and team ask in natural language on any channel. 'Is the red XL hoodie in stock at the downtown warehouse?' gets an answer without anyone opening an app, scanning a barcode, or looking up a SKU.
You define minimum stock thresholds in the agent configuration. When querying items, the agent compares current quantities against your thresholds and highlights products that fall below the minimum. Use this for proactive low-stock alerts or to automatically include reorder recommendations in daily inventory briefings.
Don't limit your AI Agent to basic conversations. Watch how to configure and add powerful tools making your agent smarter and more functional.
