An AI sales agent's Class B camper van quote, checked before it goes out

An AI sales agent prepares a quote for a Class B camper van, with the floorplan, the number of travelers, the pop-up roof and its air conditioner, the drive option, the fourth lithium battery, the solar capacity, the planned load, the discount and the list total the quote states. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the floorplan rules and returns a verdict, every reason and the list total it computed.

Scope: Class B camper van quotes: Solis, Travato, Revel, Era and Boldt floorplans, sleeping capacity, the pop-up roof and its air conditioner, all-wheel drive, the fourth lithium battery, solar, payload, discounts and the list total the quote states. See everything this validator covers

This validator models Class B camper van quotes, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Floorplans and capacity — thirteen Solis, Travato, Revel, Era and Boldt floorplans, the sleeping places of each and the added places from the pop-up roof.
  • Options — the pop-up roof and its air conditioner, all-wheel drive on the Sprinter floorplans, the fourth lithium battery on the lithium floorplans, the solar capacity and the planned load against the payload.
  • Price and referrals — the list total stated against the list total computed, the discount limit, and a manager review for larger discounts, loads near the payload and all-wheel drive on an Era.

Any Class B quote that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: Class A and Class C motorhomes, towables, dealer fees, taxes and financing. The floorplan names and the chassis and drive facts follow public pages; the sleeping places, payloads, solar limits, option rules, discount and approval thresholds and every price are modeled from comparable Class B vans and are not published by Winnebago, so every figure here is illustrative.

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
Options that exist on some floorplans onlyOnly with care
The pop-up roof, its air conditioner, all-wheel drive and the fourth battery each depend on the floorplan, so every option rule must test the floorplan.
The floorplan and every option are fields of one request and are checked together on every call.
Sleeping capacity that changes with an optionOnly with care
The pop-up roof adds sleeping places on two floorplans only, so the traveler rule needs the roof choice as well as the floorplan.
The capacity is computed from the floorplan and the roof, then compared with the travelers.
Limits per floorplan, such as payload and solarOnly with workarounds
Each floorplan has its own payload and solar limit, so each limit needs its own lookup and rule.
Each limit is a separate finding, and all of them are returned together.
A stated list total that must match the optionsOnly with workarounds
The list total adds the floorplan and each option, so a separate rule must recompute it and compare it with the stated figure.
The stated list total is a field of the request and is compared with the computed total on every call.
Referrals for discounts, loads and Era all-wheel driveOnly with workarounds
A manager review depends on the discount, the load against the payload and the drive option together, on top of the blocking rules.
The referrals are separate findings returned together with the blocking ones.

What this validator catches: findings from its test cases

Click to expand

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.

1The party is 4 travelers; this floorplan sleeps 2.
2The pop-up roof is offered only on the Solis 59P and 59PX in this model.
3Air conditioning on the pop-up roof is available only on the Solis 59PX.
4Roof-top pop-up air conditioning needs the pop-up roof on the quote.
5All-wheel drive cannot be ordered on the RAM ProMaster floorplans.
6The Revel 44E is built only as an all-wheel-drive Sprinter; choose AWD.

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 a quote for a Class B camper van, with the floorplan, the number of travelers. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the floorplan rules and returns a verdict, every reason and the list total it computed.
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
  3. The agent says. Please quote a Solis 59P for 4 travelers with the roof air conditioner, all-wheel drive and the fourth lithium battery, 600 W of solar and 1,700 lb of planned load. The discount is 25,000 dollars and the list total is 140,500 dollars. The rest of the request is on screen.
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
  5. Blocked, with eight findings, all in one answer. The party is 4 travelers; this floorplan sleeps 2. Air conditioning on the pop-up roof is available only on the Solis 59PX. All-wheel drive cannot be ordered on the RAM ProMaster floorplans. The other five are on screen.
  6. The validator returned eight 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 and against the stated total.
  7. What this shows: for limits per floorplan, such as payload and solar, a rules-based CPQ can do this only with workarounds.
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
  9. The corrected request. It changes the floorplan to Solis 59PX, the drive option to standard, the solar to 520 W, the planned load to 1,300 lb and the list total stated on the quote to 156,800 dollars. Three more changes are on screen.
  10. It calls the validator again.
  11. This time the validator clears it.
  12. All eight earlier findings are cleared.
  13. Eight 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.
