How it works

From one sentence to the right shortlist

Searches from the main search bar, the home page, the results page and the search box on category and brand pages now go through Promo AI — and every product in our catalog has been read by AI and described the way buyers talk, so your words land on the right items, not just the ones that share a keyword.

  1. You describe it

    Type your request in the main search bar, the way you’d say it to a rep — event, audience, quantity, budget, date.

  2. Promo AI understands

    It picks out what, who, when, how many and your budget — and which product types fit. Product names and item numbers go straight to results.

  3. Searches every product

    It matches against AI-written descriptions of the whole catalog, then applies your budget, quantity and date.

The best searches read like a quick note to your rep. Here’s the anatomy of a great one.

“I have a Whattrade show for the Whoconstruction industry on WhenNov 10 — need How many100 items Budgetunder $5”

Optional extras: Extraseco-friendly Extrasmade in USA Extrasin navy blue

  • What it's for

    Name the event or the item — “trade show”, “nurses week”, “drinkware”. The occasion tells it which product types make sense.

  • Who it's for

    The industry or audience — construction crews, nurses, students, developers. It favors products picked for that audience.

  • When

    The date you need them in hand. It checks production time against your date.

  • How many

    Your quantity. Items whose minimum order is higher than that are left out.

  • Budget

    A per-item price — “under $5”, “about $10 each”. It is matched against each item’s per-unit price.

  • Extras

    “Eco-friendly” and “made in USA” become filters. Colors, materials and styles help it rank.

Do

  • Write a full sentence — gifts for 50 clients under $25 each.
  • Say who it’s for: an industry, a team, an age group.
  • Give a per-item budget and a quantity together.
  • Add your in-hands date if you have a deadline.
  • Mention must-haves like eco-friendly or made in USA.

Skip

  • Keyword stuffing — cheap pen pen bulk logo custom.
  • A total budget with no quantity — $500 budget can’t be priced per item.
  • Words like “custom”, “promotional” or “with logo” — everything here can carry your logo.
  • Worrying about spelling — it’s typo forgiving.

Questions

Promo AI FAQ

What can I ask Promo AI?

Anything you would tell a promotional products rep: the event, who the items are for, how many you need, your budget per item and the date you need them. Short searches like “navy polo” or a SKU still work exactly as before.

Which searches go through Promo AI?

Every search you send from the main search bar at the top of the site, the home page, the search results page or the search box on a category or brand page. A product name, brand or item number goes straight to results, instantly — and in a category or brand page’s search box, product words simply filter that page. A full request (an event, who it’s for, a quantity, a budget or a date) is read first: you see Promo AI working on it for a moment, then your results open, picked from the whole catalog — even when you ask from a category or brand page.

Should I give a total budget or a per-item budget?

Per item works best — “under $5 each” or “about $10 per person”. If you only know a total, divide it by your quantity and include both numbers.

How does it use my in-hands date?

It compares each product’s production time with the date you give, so the results favor items that can be made in time. If that would leave nothing to show, it relaxes the date and tells you so on the results page.

What if it misunderstands me?

The results page shows what Promo AI understood — product types, quantity, budget and date — and every part can be removed or changed with the filters. You can also click “Search the exact words instead” to run a plain keyword search.

Can I search with a photo?

Yes. Drag a photo onto the search bar or tap the camera icon. We look for matching products in our catalog while you wait, and if nothing is close enough you can ask us to find something similar within your budget.

What if I can’t find the product I want?

Use Quote My Product. Tell us your event date, quantity, imprint and product colors and your all-in price per unit, add a photo if you have one, and our team will source it for you. If you’re signed in, your requests also show up in your account.

Does it cost anything or need an account?

No. Promo AI is free for everyone and works without signing in.

Tell Promo AI about your event. We’ll handle the rest.

One sentence is all it takes — and if we don’t carry it, we’ll source it for you.
