Open the AI CEO Assistant and press Explain in the 📊 Profit, explained box. Autopilot AI compares this month so far with the same days of last month and tells you, in plain words, why your profit went up or down — which sales, costs, expenses and products made the difference.
Where to find it
Admin › Autopilot AI › AI CEO Assistant, the 📊 Profit, explained box under Today's brief on the left. Store owner (Super Admin) only, like the rest of the page.
How it works
- You press Explain. The box says Looking at your numbers….
- The system works out the numbers itself from your store's profit & loss, for two periods: from the 1st of this month to today, and the same days of last month. On 9 November that is 1–9 November against 1–9 October — a fair comparison.
- It looks at delivered orders, sales, cost of goods, gross profit, other income, expenses (by category) and net profit, plus the products whose sales and margin changed the most.
- The AI only explains these numbers. It gives the change in one line, the 2–4 biggest reasons with their taka, then 3 short things to do.
Example: Rangdhanu Fashion's net profit is ৳18,000 lower than on the same days last month. The answer says sales are almost the same, but the ad spend category is ৳12,000 higher and one kurti sold fewer pieces at a lower margin. It suggests checking the ads, pushing the products with good margin and filling in missing buying prices.
Good to know
- It never invents a number or a reason the numbers do not show.
- Buying prices matter. When cost of goods is counted from products' buying prices, a product without a buying price is counted at ৳0 cost, so profit looks higher than it is. The AI says so; fill in the buying prices on those products.
- Only expenses in the cashbook count, and only approved entries.
- The answer is written in the panel's language (English or Bangla), at most 14 lines, with Written at and the time under it.
- It is kept for the hour. Press Explain again on the page to have it written fresh with the latest numbers.
- Cost: each answer counts as AI CEO Assistant & reports in AI Usage & bills.
Common problems
- "The AI did not answer. Try again in a minute." Press Explain again a little later.
- The button is greyed out. Autopilot AI is off, paused or not set up — the reason is at the top of the page. See Autopilot AI is not working.
