Hey PH fam! ๐
I built BuyCanada.ai in just a few days โ a free AI-powered tool to help Canadians discover local product alternatives.
It all started when I realized most items in my cart werenโt even Canadianโฆ even the ketchup ๐
With rising interest in supporting local and avoiding global corporate dominance, this tool makes it easier than ever to shop smarter and support ๐จ๐ฆ brands.
Iโd love your feedback and ideas on how we can grow it further ๐
Try it out ๐ 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."

@cichykrzysztofย Hey Krzysztof - appreciate you checking it out and sharing this feedback ๐
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, weโll be feeding that into a custom dataset that will serve as retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to make it smarter and more accurate over time.
Thatโs odd about the Lays chips - I just tested the same and didnโt get that, but Iโve 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 ๐ก
