# Product Catalog

> Give your agent a product catalog so it can recommend items, quote prices, and answer questions about what you sell.

The **Product Catalog** is a structured list of what you sell. Once your agent is trained on it, it can recommend products, quote prices, describe variants, and even match a photo a customer sends to the right item.

Open your agent and go to **Training → Catalog** to manage it.

## Why use a catalog?

A catalog is more precise than plain text sources. Each product is a structured record — name, price, SKU, tags, images, and variants — so the agent gives accurate answers instead of paraphrasing a web page.

## How it fits together

<Steps>
  <Step title="Build your catalog">
    Add products manually, import a CSV, or connect a store/spreadsheet source.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Train the agent on it">
    Each product is trained so the agent can retrieve it. The Catalog page shows a **Training** status per product.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Keep it in sync">
    Use **Sync** to pull the latest products from your connected sources whenever your store changes.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## The Catalog toolbar

At the top of the Catalog page you'll find:

* **Add Item** — create a single product by hand.
* **Import CSV** — bulk‑import from a spreadsheet file.
* **Connect Source** — connect a store or spreadsheet. Once a source is connected, this button becomes **Sync**, which pulls the latest from every connected source (store first, then spreadsheet).
* **Export CSV** — download your current catalog.

You can search by **name, SKU, or tags**, and sort by name or price.
