Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to common questions about how GiftPicks AI works, how your data is used, and how to get better gift ideas from the tool.
-
What is GiftPicks AI?
GiftPicks AI is an AI-powered gift finder that helps you come up with thoughtful gift ideas in seconds. You answer a few quick questions about who you’re shopping for, your budget, their interests, and the tone you want, and the tool generates a short, curated list of realistic gift suggestions.
-
How does GiftPicks AI work?
When you fill out the form on the homepage, your answers are turned into a detailed prompt for a modern AI language model. The AI considers the recipient type, age range, interests, budget, occasion, and desired gift tone to suggest a handful of ideas that make sense for your situation. You can adjust the inputs and run it again anytime for fresh ideas.
-
Is GiftPicks AI free to use?
Yes. GiftPicks AI is currently free to use. In the future, the site may display ads or include affiliate links to help support ongoing development, but using the gift finder itself does not cost you anything.
-
Do you track or store personal information?
GiftPicks AI is designed to work without needing identifying personal details. We don’t ask for names, phone numbers, or account logins. The inputs you provide are used to generate gift ideas and may be processed by our AI provider, but we do not use them to identify specific people. For more details, please read our Privacy Policy.
-
Are the gift ideas guaranteed to be accurate or in stock?
No. The gift suggestions are generated by AI and should be treated as ideas, not guarantees. Product availability, pricing, and shipping options can change at any time. Always double-check details on the retailer’s website before purchasing.
-
Why do you ask about gender and gift tone?
These fields are optional, but they can help refine the suggestions. Gender can lightly influence things like style or example products, and gift tone helps the AI aim for something more practical, sentimental, funny, experience-based, or a bit of a splurge. If you prefer not to use gender at all, simply choose “No gender preference” or leave it blank.
-
Will you use affiliate links (for example, Amazon links)?
In the future, some gift ideas may include affiliate links to shopping sites like Amazon. This means GiftPicks AI could earn a small commission if you make a purchase through those links, at no extra cost to you. Any use of affiliate links will follow our Terms of Service and will not affect the types of ideas generated.
-
Can I rely on GiftPicks AI for every situation?
GiftPicks AI is meant to be a helpful assistant, not a replacement for your judgment. It’s great for brainstorming and narrowing down options, but you know the recipient best. Always consider their personality, values, and context before purchasing a gift.
-
What’s the best way to get better gift suggestions?
The more specific you are, the better the ideas tend to be. Include a rough age range, a realistic budget, a few interests or hobbies, and the type of vibe you’re going for (for example, “funny but still useful” or “thoughtful and sentimental”). You can also run the tool multiple times with different angles to see a variety of ideas.
