Smart Actions are Hoard’s checklist for work worth reviewing. They can point out underpriced cards, demand pulses, stale stock, low-stock holds, and pricing-rule gaps.

What you’ll learn

  • Where Smart Actions live
  • How to review a recommendation
  • When to use Handled versus Not useful
  • What happens when you accept a price recommendation

Step 1: Open Suggestions

Go to Today > Suggestions. The Today Overview stays focused on your daily operating summary. Suggestions is where Hoard puts review work, recommendations, and needs-attention items.

Step 2: Read the recommendation

Each Smart Action shows a title, confidence label, and the card or rule it relates to. Common types include:
  • Raise price when a listing appears meaningfully under market
  • Demand pulse when a card’s market or sales signal moves unusually compared with its recent baseline
  • Move stale inventory when inventory has not sold recently
  • Hold price when a card is selling and inventory is low
  • Fix rules when too much inventory is falling through to your default strategy
  • Scope drift when you have inventory in a product line but no active pricing rule scoped to that line
  • Flash sale candidate when Hoard finds a cluster of stale cards that can become one pre-scoped temporary sale

Step 3: Review or preview

Click Review or Preview to inspect the recommendation. For price recommendations, Hoard queues a price update preview. You still review the price changes before anything is applied. For scope-drift recommendations, Hoard opens the pricing-rule editor with the affected product line in mind. For flash-sale candidates, Hoard opens the sale flow with the stale-card cluster already scoped so you only pick the discount and duration.

Step 4: Mark the outcome

Use the outcome buttons carefully:
  • Handled means the recommendation was real and you dealt with it, even if you handled it outside Hoard.
  • Not useful means the recommendation was wrong, noisy, or not helpful.
That distinction gives Hoard better data. Handled is positive workflow data. Not useful is negative recommendation feedback.

Step 5: Let the checklist stay quiet

Accepted, handled, and not-useful card actions are suppressed for a while. Hoard should not keep showing the same recommendation every day after you already made a decision.
Smart Actions are advisory. They help you find work, but price changes still go through the normal preview and commit flow.
