Fill Gaps with Fitz: Auto-Complete a Bottle Entry

What is Fill Gaps with Fitz?

Fill Gaps with Fitz is a Premium action on the bottle entry form and the bottle detail view. Enter a brand and expression, tap the button, and Fitz researches the bottle online and fills in only the fields you left empty — proof, ABV, region, age, distillery, tasting notes, and full production details for whiskey and tequila.

How to use it

1. Start adding or editing a bottle, or open an existing bottle's detail view.
2. Enter both a brand and an expression (both are required).
3. Tap Fill gaps with Fitz and wait a few moments for the research to complete.
4. Review each suggestion: Fitz shows a before/after for every field so you can choose your current value or the Fitz value, or use all / use none. Nothing is overwritten unless you approve it.

Scanning a bottle we don't have yet

If you scan a barcode that isn't in the catalog, tap Find with Fitz. WhiskeyMate asks for a brand and expression, then runs the same deep research and shows you the review sheet.

Why it might not run

• You must enter both a brand and an expression, each at least a couple of letters and not a placeholder.
• If every fillable field already has a value, there's nothing to research and the call is skipped.
• Fill Gaps with Fitz is a Premium feature.
• There is a daily limit of 100 fresh research runs (see below). Cached results for an expression you already researched do not use another run.

Daily research limit

Fill Gaps runs a deeper research pass than a normal Fitz chat reply — it looks up the bottle online and can take a minute or two. To keep that reliable for everyone, each Premium account has a daily limit of 100 fresh research runs.

If you hit the limit, WhiskeyMate will tell you to try again tomorrow. Research for the same brand and expression is reused when available, so checking a bottle Fitz already researched recently usually does not count as another fresh run.

Accuracy

Research is grounded in the WhiskeyMate catalog for better accuracy, and results for the same expression are reused so repeat lookups are fast. High-confidence findings help improve the shared catalog for other collectors.
