I built an AI voice agent that calls retail stores for me (1,000+ calls in, here are the crazy edge cases)

Hey r/SideProject ! 👋 Like many hobby collectors and parents, I spent way too many Saturday mornings driving 45 minutes between local Targets, Walmarts, and GameStops hoping to find sealed Pokémon cards at MSRP—only to stare at picked-over shelves or miss a vendor restock by 20 minutes. Big-box retailers don’t show this inventory on their apps or websites because third-party distributors (MJ Holding, Excell) stock the shelves independently of the retailer's inventory feeds. The only way

AI 分析

痛点:大卖场货架上的第三方补货商品(如Pokémon卡牌)不显示在零售商App/网站库存里,用户只能开车到店或打电话问店员,浪费大量时间且经常扑空。

目标用户:Pokémon卡牌收藏者、为孩子买卡的父母、零售套利/转售者,以及任何想找线下稀缺库存的消费者。

证据:I spent way too many Saturday mornings driving 45 minutes between local Targets, Walmarts, and GameStops hoping to find sealed Pokémon cards at MSRP—only to stare at picked-over shelves or miss a vendor restock by 20 minutes. / Big-box retailers don’t show this inventory on their apps or websites... The only way to know if product is physically sitting on the counter is to ask an employee. / We just crossed 1,000 completed calls across 14 major retail chains.

变现:按ZIP区域/商品类目订阅(如$5-15/月),或按成功查询次数收费;高级版提供实时短信/推送、优先呼叫、多店监控和转售利润提醒。

MVP:用Retell AI + Twilio做最小闭环:用户输入ZIP和商品名,系统查询附近门店电话,自动拨号并导航IVR,与店员对话后转写并标记是否有货;结果通过短信/邮件返回。先支持1-2个连锁和1个热门品类。

竞品:BrickSeek、PopFindr、NowInStock、Discord stock alert servers、Zoolert

摘要:作者因找MSRP Pokémon卡牌常开车45分钟却扑空,发现大卖场App不显示第三方补货库存,于是做了AI语音代理AlreadyCalled,自动拨打附近门店并询问店员。产品已跨14个连锁完成1000+通电话,展示出真实使用需求,但帖中未给出明确付费或收入数据。
