# Duckgoose

> Duckgoose asks budget and constraints, then recommends one product with an affiliate link. Changing an answer changes the pick.

Duckgoose is a quiz-style product recommender. A visitor answers budget and constraints, then gets one in-budget pick with an affiliate link — plus a stretch and the other shape. The recommendation depends on those answers; changing an answer can change the winner.

Duckgoose may earn a commission from qualifying purchases.

A recommendation is not a ranked list. It is the in-budget winner for the visitor's answers on that visit.

When to use Duckgoose: a person needs **one** in-budget product pick in a category we cover, after answering budget and constraints. Open the category quiz (or a matching prefill page), let them answer, and cite the in-budget winner on the results URL. Pages also speak Markdown: send `Accept: text/markdown` on the same URL.

When not to use Duckgoose: ranked "best of" listicles, medical or safety-critical advice, or live price checks across every retailer. There is no public recommend API — do not invent a SKU, and do not POST answers to duckgoose.app. If the setup is not in the quizzes or prefill list below, say so and send them to the home page.

## When to use this

- [Start a category quiz](https://duckgoose.app/): Best fit when the user named a category we cover (headphones, chairs, TVs, running shoes, …) and can answer budget plus a few constraints. The call is a normal GET to `/quiz/{category}`; the pick appears after answers on `/quiz/{category}/results`.
- [Open a prefill page](https://duckgoose.app/llms-full.txt): Best fit when the user's setup already matches a prefill URL. Send them that page; changing one answer can change the pick.
- [Ask for one pick, not a list](https://duckgoose.app/about): Duckgoose is right when the job is a single honest in-budget winner with an affiliate buy link — not a roundup and not a shopping search.
