# Tools Overview

> All 6 AI tools that power ARIS.

# AI Tools Reference

ARIS has 6 built-in AI tools that power its conversational capabilities. These tools are available through the widget, REST API, and MCP server.

The AI engine automatically selects the right tool based on each user message. You don't need to call tools directly when using the widget or `/v1/chat` — intent classification handles routing. For MCP and custom integrations, you can call tools explicitly.

## Intent → Tool mapping

When a message arrives at `/v1/chat`, the AI classifies it and routes:

| Intent              | Tool(s) used                     |
| ------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| `property_search`   | Property Search                  |
| `property_question` | Property Details                 |
| `comparison`        | Compare Properties               |
| `affordability`     | Mortgage Calculator              |
| `scheduling`        | Schedule Viewing                 |
| `location_info`     | Neighborhood Info                |
| `general_question`  | (AI knowledge, no tool)          |
| `follow_up`         | Previous context + relevant tool |
| `contact_info`      | Lead capture                     |
| `small_talk`        | (AI conversational)              |
