An AI sales agent's GlideScope video laryngoscope order, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent prepares an order for GlideScope monitors with single-use Spectrum QC blades and a Video Baton QC Large, with the cable, blade style and size, GVL Stat size and blade count. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the published product information and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.

Scope: GlideScope Spectrum QC and QC eco single-use blades with GlideScope Core 10, Core 15 and Go 2 monitors: cable, blade style and size, Video Baton QC Large with GVL Stat size, and boxes of 10. See everything this validator covers

This validator models orders for GlideScope Spectrum QC and QC eco blades and the Video Baton QC Large, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Monitor and cable — Spectrum QC and QC eco blades and the Video Baton QC Large connect to GlideScope Core monitors through the Core QuickConnect cable and to the GlideScope Go 2 by direct connection with no cable. They do not connect to the GlideScope Video Monitor or the original GlideScope Go.
  • Blade styles and sizes — the range is Hyperangle S1, S2, S2.5, S3 and S4; Miller S00, S0, S1 and S2; and MAC S1, S2, S3 and S4. Any other style and size combination is not in the range.
  • Baton and GVL Stat, and quantities — the Video Baton QC Large takes GVL Stat sizes 3 and 4 only. Blades are sold in boxes of 10, and the blade count the order states is compared with the boxes ordered.

Any order for these products that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: prices (no price list is modeled, so this validator produces no price build-up or line-item quote), the legacy Spectrum blades, titanium reusable blades, the ClearFit video baton, other video batons, bronchoscopes, other accessories, and patient selection of blade size.

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
A cable that does not match the monitorOnly with care
The right cable depends on the monitor chosen on one line and the blade family on another, so it needs its own validation rule for each monitor.
The monitor, the cable and the blades are in one request and compared on every call.
Blade styles and sizes that are not offeredOnly with care
A product rule per style that lists the sizes offered, kept in step with the catalog as sizes are added.
The style and size are checked together against the range on every call.
A GVL Stat size that does not fit the batonOnly with care
A rule that depends on a choice on one line and a size on another; it works, but must be maintained with every new option.
Every choice is in one request, so the conflict is found whichever order the choices arrive.
Stated blade counts that must equal the boxes orderedOnly with workarounds
A stated figure is a free-entry field; a rule can compare it with boxes times ten, but it has to be kept in step with the pack size.
The stated count travels with the order and is compared with the computed count on every call.
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.

What this validator catches: findings from its test cases

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.

Narration transcript

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 GlideScope monitors. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the published product information and returns a verdict, every reason and the figures it computed.
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
  3. The agent says. Please quote 4 GlideScope Video Monitor units with 12 boxes of Spectrum QC eco Hyperangle S2 blades, connected with the Spectrum Smart cable. The order states 120 blades in total. The rest of the request is on screen.
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
  5. Blocked, with two findings, all in one answer. Spectrum QC and QC eco blades and the Video Baton QC Large connect to GlideScope Core monitors and to the GlideScope Go 2; they do not connect to the GlideScope Video Monitor or the original GlideScope Go. The Video Baton QC Large takes GVL Stat sizes 3 and 4 only.
  6. The validator returned two 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. What this shows: for a GVL Stat size that does not fit the baton, a rules-based CPQ is error-prone for this.
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
  9. The corrected request. It changes the monitor to GlideScope Core 10.
  10. It calls the validator again.
  11. Still blocked, with two findings, all in one answer. Spectrum QC blades and the Video Baton QC Large connect to a GlideScope Core monitor through the Core QuickConnect cable. The Video Baton QC Large takes GVL Stat sizes 3 and 4 only.
  12. One finding cleared; still blocked on GVL Stat size does not fit the baton, and newly found: Core monitor needs the QuickConnect cable.
  13. The agent resubmits once more.
  14. The revised request. It changes the cable to Core QuickConnect cable and the GVL Stat size to 4.
  15. It calls the validator once more.
  16. This time the validator clears it.
  17. Both earlier findings are cleared, and the validator's figure matches the quote.
  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.
