Use case

Your whole catalogue, one chat away

A long catalogue PDF is hard to read on a phone. People scroll, give up and leave. With a fad, you upload your products as a simple CSV file. When a visitor asks for "cotton kurti under โ‚น800", the fad shows matching products as neat cards with photo, price and a buy link. It feels like asking a helpful shop assistant who knows every shelf.

How it works

In three steps.

  1. 1

    Make your CSV

    Open Excel or Google Sheets. Add columns title, price, link, image, category and description. One row per product. Save it as a CSV file and upload it to your fad.

  2. 2

    Add the rest of your info

    Add your delivery areas, payment options and return rules as pasted text or question-answer pairs. Now the fad can answer the questions that come after "kitne ka hai".

  3. 3

    Share and watch the chats

    Send the link on WhatsApp status, put it in your bio, or add the widget to your Shopify store. Open the chat history to see what people ask for most.

Why it matters

What changes for you

Cards, not long listsEach product shows as a card with image, price and a link to buy. Visitors see only what they asked for, not two hundred rows of a spreadsheet.
Easy to updatePrice changed or an item sold out? Edit the CSV and upload it again. The fad uses the new list from the very next chat.
Works with your existing linksThe link column can point to your Shopify page, Amazon listing, Instagram post or WhatsApp catalogue. Buyers finish the purchase where you already sell.
Answers around the productDelivery time, exchange rules, sizing help and payment methods come from your other sources. One chat handles the product and the questions that follow it.

Questions people ask

How many products can the CSV have?

One CSV counts as one source and can be up to 25 MB, which is many thousands of rows. Keep titles short and descriptions clear so the fad can match what visitors ask for. Use the category column to group items like sarees, kurtis and dupattas.

Where do product photos come from?

Put a direct image link in the image column. It can be a photo already on your website, Shopify or any public image link. The card shows that photo. If a row has no image, the card still shows title, price and link.

Can visitors buy inside the chat?

The chat does not take payment. Each card has your link, so the visitor taps and buys on your website, Amazon or marketplace page. For WhatsApp orders, turn on the WhatsApp handover and the visitor reaches you with the product question already typed.

Does it work for a wholesale catalogue too?

Yes. Put the minimum quantity and wholesale price in the description column. Add a question-answer pair about bulk pricing. Retailers can ask for "100 pieces rate" and the fad shows the right items and passes serious buyers to your WhatsApp.
