Code was yesterday – how AI is revolutionizing your work with Channel Pilot Pro
Hardly any topic occupies the public mind as much as artificial intelligence. In recent years, the technology has infiltrated every area of society, business, and technology. One thing is clear: AI is changing our lives. Many of the emerging projects are sensible or contribute to the common good, while others are at least worth a raised eyebrow. However, all have the same goal: to simplify processes, break down barriers, and maximize our potential. This is also true for Channel Pilot Pro. With AI integration, we are making our tool even more accessible – regardless of whether you can code or are just starting your multichannel journey.

Formulas – just without magic or math
With our latest update for Channel Pilot Pro, we are integrating artificial intelligence for the first time. This offers all existing customers entirely new possibilities and simultaneously makes our tool more attractive to new users.
Do you want to reduce the price of a specific product group by 10 percent every Saturday? Assemble product names automatically from predefined rules in seconds? Then we have the right solution for you!
May we introduce: Our AI Formula Generator. It takes a fraction of the time for tasks that previously required a lot of brainpower. Simply describe what your new function should be able to do to the AI in the input field, and the tool will handle the rest.
And here's how it's done
To use the AI Formula Generator, you must first create your own data field. To do this, simply navigate to Start -> Settings -> Custom Data Fields and click on the tile Create Own Data Field. Here you'll find the first new feature: In addition to the usual fields for manual formula creation, there is now the field AI Formula Generator.

You are now in the heart of the new feature. Click on Select data field, to include one of your data fields in your prompt. Don't worry: you can define as many source data fields as you like. You just need to specify a name and data type for each of the data fields.
From our own experience, we know that data fields don't always have the shortest labels. The temporary name helps you keep your prompt clean and organized. For example, „clean_price” becomes a simple „Price”.
Now for the hard part:
In the „Prompt“ field, describe in your own words what you expect from the formula, i.e., your new data field.

Need some inspiration?
Example 1:
Source data fields: Manufacturer, Title, Size, Price
Prompt: Row Manufacturer, Title, Size, and Price, separated by commas. Shorten the chain to 25 characters.
With the formula generated from this, you create data fields that are perfectly suited for playing out on marketplaces, for example. The concatenation of attributes helps you to create a meaningful title later, while the character limit is often specified by platforms. With this formula, you kill two birds with one stone and are ready for your listing in seconds.


Example 2:
Source data field: Price
Prompt: „"Reduce my prices by 10% every Saturday and write 'Saturday Special on' followed by the respective date."‚
While this formula may pose a tricky task for many users, it's no problem for our AI. Especially with recurring processes, like an offer in this case, the update is a real game-changer.
Example 3:
Source data fields: Name, Color, Size, Price
Prompt: „[Product Name] [Color] [Size] $[Price].“
This relatively complex formula used to make even real channel pilot pros sweat. With our AI formula generator, it's just a simple sentence away and capable of generating thousands of appealing product names with just one click.

And now?
With a click on Generate formula You will be shown a preview of a randomly selected article. You can then take your time to check whether the AI-generated formula meets your requirements. If you still want to put the finishing touches on it, you can of course regenerate it at any time or with Show formula manually edit.
We are proud to offer you state-of-the-art technology with the AI Formula Generator. It not only makes life easier for Channel Pilot Pro novices, but also saves true experts of our tool a massive amount of time. Do you still need support? Take a look at our Help pages over
