Yes. Pattern data and your yarn meta feed into the prompt for solid skein math. A worsted-weight cardigan in size L runs about 1,200 to 1,400 m depending on body length and sleeve style. The bot divides by skein meterage and rounds up by 1 to 2 skeins for swatching and dye-lot safety. The knitter leaves with the actual count to put in the basket instead of guessing in the aisle.

Yes. SleekAI is grounded in your WordPress products, so suggestions match what you actually stock. Yarn substitutions, needle alternatives, even circular versus DPN choices all stay inside your shelf. If a knitter asks for a brand you do not carry, the bot offers the closest match by fiber and weight from your inventory rather than recommending a competitor or an online marketplace.

Yes. Multibot lets each section have its own bot, prompt, and conditions. The knit bot knows weight, gauge, needle sizing, and pattern math. The crochet bot knows hook sizing in mm, stitch height per round, and yardage adjustments for the same garment in crochet versus knit. Display conditions route by URL pattern, post type, or product category so the right bot loads on the right page.

Add your class and KAL pages to the knowledge base and the bot can answer scheduling, skill-level, and yarn-pack questions. A knitter asking whether the Tuesday-night sock club is beginner-friendly gets the answer from the actual class description. Signup routes to your booking flow, and the conversation log shows which workshops drove interest for next season's curriculum.

Dye lot lives in product meta. The bot quotes available dye-lot stock for a specific colorway and warns when a dye lot is low. If a knitter wants 8 skeins of a colorway with only 6 left in the current lot, the bot says so and either proposes a second-lot alternative or offers a substitute yarn in the same weight and fiber. No more half-finished sweaters waiting on a restock that may not arrive.

Yours. SleekAI is bring-your-own-key for OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter, so cost and data stay with you. Most skein-count and substitution questions answer fine on GPT-4o-mini or Claude Haiku at fractions of a cent per chat. Reserve a larger model for the harder cases like adapting a pattern from worsted to DK weight where the gauge math gets nontrivial. Usage stays in your provider dashboard.

If you sell or distribute patterns, the bot answers shopping questions about pattern files, sizing, suggested yarn, and gauge from product meta. It does not transmit copyrighted pattern text. Pattern errata and detailed support route to the designer or your team. Sizing, fiber suggestions, and gauge information are fair game because they live on the product page already.

Yes. Conversation logs help you spot stock gaps and class ideas. If 30 knitters a month ask for a yarn weight you do not carry, that is a buying signal. If knitters keep asking for crochet help and your class schedule is all knit, that is a curriculum signal. The log doubles as a quarterly planning artifact alongside POS data and shows you which colorways are getting asked about before the rep call.
