That service uses OpenAI to match your question with the right data and help documents, and Google Gemini to write the answer, so your question and the store data needed to answer it are sent to these providers. AdvEnt AI can make mistakes, so check important figures.

AdvEntPOS owners can also create an account in the app; your POS provider then links your stores to it. To get access, contact your AdvEntPOS provider or Sypram Software at www.adventpos.com. The features you see depend on your store's setup and your user role. Label printing, invoice reading, Web Office reports and AdvEnt AI must be set up for your store.
