# How to Find Product Inspiration with Copilot

Copilot brings social commerce data directly into your development environment, eliminating the context switch between product research and implementation. Query TikTok Shop and Amazon product listings without leaving your editor, then use the results to build product catalog schemas, seed development databases, or generate comparison components with real market data. This workflow is particularly valuable for e-commerce developers who need to prototype features with authentic product information or build competitive analysis tools backed by live marketplace signals.

## Setup

{"mcpServers":{"toolrouter":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","toolrouter-mcp"]}}}

## Steps

1. Add ToolRouter to Copilot MCP config
2. Ask: "Search TikTok Shop for trending products in [category]"
3. Browse product results inline in your editor
