Check Your Sales CSV File With AI
Use this as the first prompt after uploading your sales CSV to verify the AI has correctly read your file and identified all products before running any calculations.
The Prompt
I've uploaded a CSV file with 90 days of sales data. The columns are: date, product, quantity, revenue, unit_cost. Please confirm you can read the file and tell me how many rows it contains, the date range covered, and the names of all unique products.

Use this as the third prompt immediately after generating the profitability table. It surfaces which high-revenue products are actually poor performers and which low-revenue products deserve more attention.
