Predictika · Veterinary clinic order quotes

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

An AI sales agent prepares a veterinary clinic's order quote for one dog, with the dog's weight and age, the parasite, itch and osteoarthritis products, the size or strength of each, the clinic's tier discount and the net total the quote states. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the product and ordering rules and returns a verdict, every reason and the net total it computed.

Scope: Canine clinic order quotes: Simparica Trio, Cytopoint, Apoquel and Librela for one dog, the size or strength that fits its weight, age and weight limits, the product combination, the clinic tier discount and the net total the quote states. See everything this validator covers

This validator models canine clinic order quotes for these four products, not just the scenarios shown below.

  • Products and sizes — Simparica Trio, Cytopoint, Apoquel and Librela, the size or strength that fits the dog's weight, the doses, vials, tablets and days ordered, and the minimum age and weight for each product.
  • Combinations — Cytopoint and Apoquel quoted together, Librela for a breeding dog, and an order with no product at all.
  • Price and referrals — the clinic tier discount, the discount limit, the net total stated against the net total computed, and a person's review for the combined itch treatment and for a discount above the clinic tier.

Any canine clinic order that touches these rules is in scope — not only the scenarios pictured here. Not covered: other Zoetis products, other species and dispensing records. Only the four product names and their canine uses are Zoetis's; the size and strength tables, the dose ranges, the minimum weights, the clinic tiers, the discount limits and every price are modeled from comparable veterinary products and are not published by Zoetis, so they are illustrative. Always follow the product labels for real dosing.

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 size or strength that depends on the dog's weightOnly with care
The Simparica Trio size, the Cytopoint vial and the Librela vial each follow bands of the dog's weight, and an Apoquel dose must stay inside a range per pound.		The weight and each size are fields of one request and are checked together on every call.
Age and weight limits for each productOnly with care
Simparica Trio, Apoquel, Cytopoint and Librela each have a minimum age or weight, so every rule must test the dog as well as the product.		Each limit is a separate finding, and all of them are returned together.
Doses, vials and days that must be orderedOnly with workarounds
A product ordered with no doses, no vials or no days is an empty line, and a dose is the product of a strength and a count, so a rule must compute it before comparing it with a range.		The counts and strengths are fields of the request and the dose is computed from them on every call.
A stated net total that must match the build-upOnly with workarounds
The net total chains the products, the doses, the days and the discount, so a separate rule must recompute it and compare it with the stated figure.		The stated total is a field of the request and is compared with the computed total on every call.
Referrals for combinations and tier discountsOnly with workarounds
A review depends on the products together and on the discount against the clinic tier, on top of the blocking rules.		The referrals are separate findings returned together with the blocking ones.

The text of the narrated walkthrough, step by step.

    
    
      
  1. Welcome to a demo of Predictika's Validator. An AI sales agent prepares a veterinary clinic's order quote for one dog, with the dog's weight and age, the parasite. Before it goes out, the agent sends it to Predictika, which checks it against a declarative model of the product and ordering rules and returns a verdict, every reason and the net total it computed.
    2. 
      
  2. I will start with the first request by the agent.
    3. 
      
  3. The agent says. Please quote an order for a 40 pound dog that is 104 weeks old: Simparica Trio (22 pound size, six monthly doses). The clinic is on the Preferred tier and the discount is $70. The rest of the request is on screen. The net total stated on the quote is $465.
    4. 
      
  4. Before it goes out, the agent calls the validator.
    5. 
      
  5. Blocked, with five findings, all in one answer. The quoted Simparica Trio size tops out at 22 pounds; this dog needs the size topping out at 44 pounds. The Cytopoint vials give 20 mg; the dose for this weight is at least 0.9 mg per pound. The quoted Librela vial is 10 mg; this weight needs the 20 mg vial. The other two are on screen.
    6. 
      
  6. The validator returned five 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. 
      
  7. What this shows: for a stated net total that must match the build-up, a rules-based CPQ can do this only with workarounds.
    8. 
      
  8. Now the agent resubmits.
    9. 
      
  9. The corrected request. It changes the Simparica Trio to 44 pound size, 6 monthly doses, the cytopoint to 1 vial of 40 mg, the librela to 3 vials of 20 mg and the discount to 24 dollars.
    10. 
      
  10. It calls the validator again.
    11. 
      
  11. This time the validator clears it.
    12. 
      
  12. All five earlier findings are cleared.
    13. 
      
  13. Five 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.
