2 – Amazon Discounts App

PreviousRAG with Open Source and Running "Examples"NextHow the Project Works

Last updated 10 months ago

In this tutorial, we will build an app called "Amazon Discounts App" that can find real-time sales and deals for Amazon products. In this case, instead of cloning this Discounts app repository, we'll try to observe and learn how it uses the LLM App with the Prices API to give the desired results.

In this project, you will use two data sources:

  • Discounts CSV with product and price data

An interesting thing to know: This use case is quite common in the E-commerce industry. For instance, a highlights how players like Amazon, along with Indian e-commerce giants Flipkart and Myntra, have implemented similar features to enhance their customer experience.

These two sources are used just to show how you can upload a CSV along with another real-time data source. While you can use a similar approach with other APIs, even this showcase opens up considerable possibilities in E-Commerce applications.
