Hey PH fam! πŸ‘‹ I built BuyCanada.ai in just a few days β€” a free AI-powered tool to help Canadians discover local product alternatives. It all started when I realized most items in my cart weren’t even Canadian… even the ketchup πŸ˜… With rising interest in supporting local and avoiding global corporate dominance, this tool makes it easier than ever to shop smarter and support πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ brands. I’d love your feedback and ideas on how we can grow it further πŸ™Œ Try it out πŸ‘‰ https://www.buycanada.ai

Hey! Where does the app get its data from? I tried searching for "whisky" and only found six brands. Then I searched for "potatoes" and got results like "Lays Potato Chips."

@cichykrzysztofΒ Hey Krzysztof - appreciate you checking it out and sharing this feedback πŸ™Œ

Right now, the tool uses a generative AI model (LLM) to suggest up to 6 Canadian alternatives based on your query. This initial launch is just the first step - as we continue gathering more data and scraping verified Canadian product directories, we’ll be feeding that into a custom dataset that will serve as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to make it smarter and more accurate over time.


That’s odd about the Lays chips - I just tested the same and didn’t get that, but I’ve now adjusted the prompt logic to further improve filtering and exclude non-local brands from responses. Super helpful note - the more real-world feedback like this, the better the engine gets πŸ’‘


Thanks again!
