AI Category Mapping: Key Details

• Exclusive to GunBroker: You will not see the AI option in other channels.
• Overrides Manual Sets: Once enabled, any manually uploaded mapping sets are superseded by the AI tool.
• Switching Back: If you revert to manual mapping, your previous files remain intact and will resume mapping upon saving.

AI vs. Manual Mapping:
If you’re already using standard/manual mapping sets effectively, keep doing so. If you’re new to GunBroker or want a clean slate, simply enable AI Category Mapping for a more automated approach.

Benefits of AI Category Mapping

• Time Savings: No need to compile manual mapping files.
• Automatic Updates: Whenever new categories or products appear, the AI system handles updates automatically.
• Easy Reset: If you ever want to revert to manual mapping sets, you can switch back at any time.
