Example Use Cases

Personal Finance

“Compare personal loans for $25,000 to consolidate credit card debt. My credit score is 720.”
The AI assistant will use compare_personal_loans to fetch and compare offers from multiple lenders, presenting the best options with rates, terms, and monthly payments.

Business Financing

“I need a 200,000equipmentloanformyrestaurant.Mybusinesshas200,000 equipment loan for my restaurant. My business has 1.2M annual revenue and I’ve been operating for 3 years.”
The AI will use compare_business_loans with your business profile to find competitive offers, then can help you submit applications with get_offer.

Home Buying

“What would my monthly payment be on a $400,000 home with 20% down at 6.5% interest, including taxes and insurance?”
The AI uses calculate_mortgage_payment to provide a complete PITI breakdown.
