Jarir-NLP: Personalized AI Salesman

The Jarir-NLP project introduces an AI-powered virtual assistant that helps online shoppers navigate Jarir’s wide selection of computers and tablets. By simulating the role of an in-store salesperson, the assistant engages customers in natural conversation to recommend devices based on their specific needs, preferences, and budget. Built on a Agentic AI framework, the system combines real-time search with language generation to deliver accurate, up-to-date answers grounded in Jarir’s product catalog. This ensures reliable guidance while offering a personalized, intuitive shopping experience that bridges the gap between online automation and human expertise.
