AI on your own Anthropic account

Setup needed

Ask your shop in your own words.

Save your own Anthropic key and ask “Aaj ka sale kitna hua?” — every number comes straight from your VASAH records. The same key writes descriptions in English, Gujarati and Hindi, drafts a style from a garment photo and reads a supplier's bill.

What you get

What it does for your shop.

  • Ask Vasah

    Sales, udhaar, stock, top sellers, supplier dues and dead stock — asked in Hinglish, Gujarati, Hindi or English.

  • Numbers from your books

    The AI only picks which figures to fetch; every number comes from your records.

  • Descriptions in three languages

    Write with AI gives a style's description in English, Gujarati and Hindi.

  • From a photo

    Photograph a garment for a draft style, or a supplier's bill for a purchase entry.

  • On WhatsApp too

    The owner can ask from the daily-summary number, once customers' WhatsApp replies are connected.

Before you start

What to have ready.

Your own Anthropic key; who can ask.

Getting ready

  1. The AI runs on your own Anthropic account: create one, set up billing, and make an API key.

  2. Ask Vasah takes every number straight from your VASAH records; the AI only picks which figures to fetch.

  3. Ask Vasah is for people who can see sales or money reports: the owner, store manager, accountant and online manager.

  • An Anthropic account with billing set up — Anthropic charges you for what you use
  • An API key from that account
  • A phone or PC camera, for garment and bill photos

Switch it on

Switch it on, step by step.

Paste the key; leave the model and budget as they are.

In the back officeSettings → Connections → AI catalog helpWho can do it: owner, store manager
  1. Open Settings → Connections → AI catalog help and paste the key in “Anthropic API key”.

  2. Leave “Model” as it is. Leave “Daily budget (tokens)” empty for the usual 200,000 a day — typing 0 switches the assistant off.

  3. Press Save. There is no Test connection for AI — the test is a question.

Test it

Check it really works.

When something goes wrong

What VASAH tells you, and what to do.

No key, a refused key, the daily budget, an unreadable photo.

  • “Add an Anthropic API key under Settings → Connections → AI catalog help to use the assistant” (or “…to generate descriptions”, “…first”): no key is saved. Paste it in Settings → Connections → AI catalog help.

  • “Anthropic API: …”: Anthropic refused — the key is wrong or the account has no credit. Check it in your Anthropic account.

  • “Today's AI budget (… tokens) is used up. It resets at midnight, or the owner or a store manager can raise it under Settings → Connections → AI catalog help.”: wait for midnight, or raise “Daily budget (tokens)” in AI catalog help.

  • “Could not read the bill reliably — try a straighter, better-lit photo” or “Photo too large — retake it a bit further away or crop it”: take the photo again.

  • “That took too many steps — try asking a simpler, single question.” or “The model returned an unexpected format — try again”: ask again, one thing at a time.

Good to know

What it does not do.

  • It runs on your own Anthropic account and key.
  • A daily budget caps use — 200,000 tokens unless you change it — and resets at midnight.
  • Ask Vasah is for people who can see sales or money reports: the owner, store manager, accountant and online manager.
  • A blurred or crooked bill photo cannot be read — take it again, straight and well lit.
