Predictika · Pipe pressing tool orders

An AI sales agent's pressing tool order, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent prepares an order for a press-fitting tool and its jaws, rings, collars or adapters for a contractor: the pipe dimension to be pressed, the pipe material and the accessories on the order. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the published compatibility overview and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.

Scope: Geberit Mapress pressing tools and accessories in compatibility classes [1], [2] and [2XL]: which accessory fits which tool, which pipe dimensions each accessory covers, the 66.7 mm copper note and pressing ring adapter jaws. See everything this validator covers

This validator models an order for Geberit Mapress pressing tools and their accessories from the public Geberit assortment overview of Mapress compatibility (December 2025), not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Tool and accessory class — the ACO 103plus takes class [1] accessories; the MFP 2 and ACO 203plus take class [2]; the ACO 203XLplus is listed for both [2] and [2XL]. An accessory has to be in a class the tool takes.
  • Pipe dimensions — each jaw set, single jaw, pressing ring, collar and adapter jaw in the overview (46 articles) is listed for specific dimensions from 12 mm to 108 mm; the pipe has to be one of them.
  • 66.7 mm note — the overview says compatibility [2] can be used for 66.7 mm Geberit Mapress copper material only, so other materials at 66.7 mm are stopped.
  • Rings and totals — pressing rings are listed with adapter jaws, so a ring on an order with none goes to a person; the item total the order states has to match the tools and accessories on it.

Any order for these tools and accessories that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: prices (the overview gives none, so this page shows no price build-up), compatibility classes [3] and [HCP] (named in the overview's title but with no tables in it), other Geberit product lines, and pipe system compatibility beyond what the overview states. Assumption: the adapter jaw check for pressing rings is a prompt for a person, because the overview lists adapter jaws but does not say a ring cannot be used without one.

The AI sales agentBuilds the pressing tool order from the conversation and says it is ready.

Where rules-based CPQ gets it wrong
Click to expand
    
Our assessment of what a typical rules-based CPQ (product rules, price rules and validation rules, as in Salesforce CPQ) does with the same cases. It is a judgment about effort and reliability, not a claim that nothing can be built.

    
What the validator caughtTypical rules-based CPQPredictika
Accessories that fit only some toolsOnly with care
Which jaw, ring or collar goes with which tool is a table of tools and article numbers, and a class change has to be kept in step in every rule that uses it.		The tool and accessory are compared by class on every call.
Pipe dimensions covered by each articleOnly with workarounds
Each article covers its own list of dimensions, some with gaps (for example 15, 22, 28 and 35 mm but not 18 mm), so a range check is not enough.		The pipe dimension is looked up in the list for the accessory on the order.
A note that applies to one dimension and one materialOnly with care
A condition on 66.7 mm copper needs a rule that combines dimension and material, which is easy to leave out.		Dimension and material are checked together.
Totals that must match what the order statesOnly with care
The item total comes from the quantities and has to agree with the figure written in the order.		The total is computed and compared with the stated figure.
Every problem returned in one answerOnly with workarounds
Rules tend to fire as the order is saved or a step is completed, so a person often fixes one error and meets the next.		All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in.

The text of the narrated walkthrough, step by step.

    
    
      
  1. Welcome to a demo of Predictika's Validator. An AI sales agent prepares an order for a press-fitting tool and its jaws, rings, collars or adapters for a contractor: the pipe dimension to be pressed, the pipe material and the accessories on the order. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the published compatibility overview and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.
    2. 
      
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
    3. 
      
  3. The agent says. Please place an order for one ACO 203plus pressing tool [2] (691.218.P5.2) for Birch Heating, with Mapress pressing ring, swivelling [1]. There is no adapter jaw on the order. The rest of the request is on screen.
    4. 
      
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
    5. 
      
  5. Blocked, with one finding and one approval, all in one answer. The pressing tool ACO 203plus is not in a compatibility class that takes accessory 691.200.00.1, according to the Geberit Mapress compatibility overview.
    6. 
      
  6. The validator returned one blocking finding and one approval in one answer. A check that reads one field at a time would pass most of this; it shows only when the choices in the quote are checked against each other.
    7. 
      
  7. What this shows: for accessories that fit only some tools, a rules-based CPQ is error-prone for this.
    8. 
      
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
    9. 
      
  9. The corrected request. It changes the pressing tool to ACO 103plus pressing tool [1] (691.017.P5.1).
    10. 
      
  10. It calls the validator again.
    11. 
      
  11. Not blocked, but held for a person.
    12. 
      
  12. The one blocking finding is cleared; one approval remains for a person: pressing ring and its adapter jaw.
    13. 
      
  13. The agent resubmits once more.
    14. 
      
  14. The revised request. It changes the adapter jaw on the order to yes.
    15. 
      
  15. It calls the validator once more.
    16. 
      
  16. This time the validator clears it.
    17. 
      
  17. The earlier finding is cleared, and the validator's figure matches the quote.
    18. 
      
  18. Two problems caught in one call, fixed in two passes, and a clean quote. That is the value of Predictika's validator: catching mistakes before they reach the customer. Now you can try the other scenarios yourself.
    19.
