AI Bulk Operations

AI Bulk Operations

One of the most powerful features of the Nuvi AI assistant is its ability to perform bulk operations — updating multiple items in a single conversation turn. This saves hours of manual work when managing a large catalog.

How Bulk Operations Work

When you give the AI a request that affects multiple items, it uses a multi-action pipeline:

1. The AI analyzes your request and identifies all affected items.
2. It generates an action plan showing each change it will make.
3. You review the plan and approve or reject each action.
4. Approved actions execute sequentially, and you see a summary of results.

This approval step ensures you never accidentally modify something you did not intend to change.

Bulk Product Updates

Common bulk product commands:

• "Increase all product prices by 10%" — Applies a percentage price increase across your catalog.
• "Set all products in the T-Shirts collection to $24.99" — Updates prices for a specific collection.
• "Mark all out-of-stock products as unpublished" — Hides products with zero inventory.
• "Add the tag 'summer-sale' to all products under $30" — Batch-adds tags based on conditions.

Bulk Content Changes

The AI can also update content across your store:

• "Update the footer text on all pages to include our new phone number" — Changes recurring content blocks.
• "Add a holiday banner to the top of every page" — Inserts a section across multiple pages.
• "Change the CTA button text from 'Buy Now' to 'Shop Now' everywhere" — Finds and replaces text in sections.

Reviewing and Approving Actions

For safety, the AI presents each bulk action with details before executing:

• Each action card shows: the item being changed, the current value, and the new value.
• Click "Approve" to execute or "Reject" to skip an individual action.
• You can approve all actions at once or review them one by one.
• Rejected actions are skipped — the AI moves on to the next one.

Limitations and Best Practices

• Batch size — The AI processes up to 50 items per request. For larger batches, split your request (e.g., "Update products A–M" then "Update products N–Z").
• Review carefully — Always read the action plan before approving. Bulk changes are harder to undo than individual edits.
• Be specific — "Increase prices of products in the Electronics category by 5%" is better than "Make some stuff more expensive."
• Test first — Try your bulk command on a small subset first (e.g., "Update the first 3 products") before applying it to your entire catalog.
