Remember the experience of walking into a store and having someone help you find exactly what you’re looking for? This made the shopping experience feel personal and productive. Now, imagine if you could give your website visitors that same special treatment - except this personal shopper already knows what you’re looking for before you even do. Say hello to our AI-powered friend, Recombee!

In our previous article, we talked about the benefits of Artificial Intelligence and how AI Powered tools can improve your customer experience. Now, we are going to dive a little deeper into the service we mentioned there - Recombee. 

Recombee specializes in recommendation services to increase customer satisfaction. But what does this look like in real life? 

Imagine you are doing some online shopping for a new coffee machine. You find the Coffee Maker 3000 and decide this is the perfect choice, *add to cart*. But before you complete your purchase you see at the bottom of the page, “Items you may also like:” and you notice coffee filters in the list of products. Now, in your cart is the Coffee Maker 3000 and coffee filters. 

Recombee analyzes and sorts data to make in-the-moment recommendations based on the user’s behavior patterns and on attributes of products to find where and what will spark the most interest in your user. 

You may have seen this type of “personal shopper” before on major retail websites like Amazon, Asos, and Target that have helped you in the past with finding the products you didn’t even know you needed. Tools like Recombee are also behind finding you the next best Netflix binge.  Just as in the example above, Recombee recognized that other coffee products would be the best recommendation for that specific user considering their search patterns. 

Overall, you can expect the following results:

1. An increase in your site’s conversion rate

2. Improved product engagement 

3. A positive user experience
