This 2024 conversational prototype recommends Honeywell cordless vacuums. The assistant chats about budget, home, and cleaning habits, fills a preference profile, matches it against three catalogued models — VC10, VC14, and VC16 — and answers with a short rationale plus a product URL on honeywellvac.com.
The Hugging Face Space Nicolas852/Shop_Chatbot hosts a Gradio 4 chat UI. The app was exported from a Colab notebook and talks to an OpenAI-compatible chat API (with retry). The catalog is embedded in the app as a small product table; matching is model-assisted classification over those three SKUs, not a separate vector index. The Space is set to CPU basic hardware and may be asleep until opened.
The legacy write-up frames this as retrieval-augmented shopping dialogue. Conversion or accuracy metrics are not published.
