Predictika · Self-propelled sprayer orders

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

An AI sales agent prepares an order for a self-propelled sprayer from the Imperador 2000 line: the model, boom length, track width, tires, nozzle holders, crop clearance, a few options, and the empty weight and transport height for the quote. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the manufacturer's public brochure and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.

Scope: Orders for the Imperador 2000 self-propelled sprayer in its Standard, Intermediario and Top models: boom, track, tires, nozzle holders, clearance, options, weight and height. See everything this validator covers

This validator models orders for the Imperador 2000 sprayer, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Models and boom — the Standard model has a 27 m boom, the Intermediario 27 or 30 m, and the Top 30 m; any other boom length on a model is blocked.
  • Track, tires and clearance — the Standard model has a fixed 275 cm track, 12.4x36 tires and 140 cm of crop clearance; the Intermediario and Top have a hydraulic 260 to 320 cm track, 13.6x38 or 16.9x30 tires and 160 cm of clearance.
  • Nozzle holders and options — bijet holders on the Standard model and trijet on the others; nozzle-by-nozzle shutoff and 4-wheel smart steering on the Top model only; the supply pump and the complete weather station on the Intermediario and Top; Syncro on all three.
  • Stated figures — the empty weight and transport height on the quote are compared with the brochure figures for the model.

Any order for these models that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: prices (the brochure lists none, so this validator produces no price build-up or line-item quote), the Imperador 2000 PV (seeding) variant and other Stara sprayers, the paid signal correction option, and any option or configuration not in the brochure.

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
Boom, track, tires and clearance that depend on the modelOnly with care
Each model has its own boom, track, tire and clearance choices; a list per model is workable, but every brochure revision means editing several lists.		The model and each of these choices are checked together on every call, whichever order they were chosen in.
Options that exist on some models onlyOnly with workarounds
Nozzle-by-nozzle shutoff, 4-wheel steering, the supply pump and the weather station each apply to a different set of models; it ends up as several cross-field rules that interact.		The model and every option are in one request and each mismatch is reported.
A weight and height that follow from the modelOnly with care
The figures on the quote have to be compared with the brochure by hand.		The empty weight and transport height are computed from the model and compared with the figures the quote states.
Every problem returned in one answerOnly with workarounds
Rules tend to fire as the order is saved or a step is completed, so a rep often fixes one error and meets the next.		All findings come back together, whatever order the choices arrived in.

Every rule is checked on every call, in any order the choices arrive; one problem never hides another. Blocking findings stop the quote; approval findings need a person to sign off; everything else is computed.

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 self-propelled sprayer from the Imperador 2000 line: the model, boom length, track width, and more. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the manufacturer's public brochure 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 quote an Imperador 2000 Standard sprayer with a 30 m boom, a track width of 275 cm, 12.4x36 tires. The quote states an empty weight of 7,700 kg and a transport height of 377 cm. The rest of the request is on screen.
    4. 
      
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
    5. 
      
  5. Blocked, with four findings, all in one answer. A 30 m boom is not offered on this Imperador 2,000 model (Standard 27 m, Intermediario 27 or 30 m, Top 30 m). The nozzle holder on the quote does not match the model (Standard has bijet holders; Intermediario and Top have trijet holders). A crop clearance of 160 cm is not the one this model has (Standard 140 cm; Intermediario and Top 160 cm). The other one is on screen.
    6. 
      
  6. The validator returned four blocking findings 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 boom, track, tires and clearance that depend on the model, a rules-based CPQ is error-prone for this.
    8. 
      
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
    9. 
      
  9. The corrected request. It changes the model to Imperador 2000 Intermediario, the track width to 290 cm, the tires to 13.6x38, the stated empty weight to 8,900 kg and the stated transport height to 397 cm.
    10. 
      
  10. It calls the validator again.
    11. 
      
  11. This time the validator clears it.
    12. 
      
  12. All four earlier findings are cleared, and the validator's figure matches the quote.
    13. 
      
  13. Four problems caught in one call, fixed in one pass, 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.
    14.
