Solution
Combination of search engine and recommender system to narrow individual searches to specific items to save customer’s time.
By using our search:personalized logic, leveraging our business rules to filter specific items, and setting up over 120 search synonyms in our Admin UI, Kunzmann managed to improve user experience across different sections of their website.
When selecting a specific category of products (in this case Rim&Wheels), you will get a list of recommended products, which are provided to you with the recombee:default logic.
The goal of this logic (unique ensemble of models) is to offer the most relevant products even when there’s not enough data in the given context. The ensemble is being constantly improved by our own artificial intelligence to adapt to the incoming data.
The scenario used on the product detail page for recommending alternative products to a currently viewed one by utilizing our ecommerce:similar-products logic.
In this case, as in most of the e-commerce use cases, the ensemble of models is used in combination with business rules (filtering cheaper products) to offer similar products which are more expensive (up-sell).
The scenario used on the article detail page for recommending complementary products leveraging our ecommerce:cross-sell logic.
In this case, as in most of the e-commerce use cases, the ensemble of models is used for offering products, that are compatible with the currently viewed product (cross-sell).
After putting a specific product into the shopping cart during the checkout, there would be products recommended on the confirmation page with recombee:default logic.
Automatically AI optimized ensemble of both content-based and collaborative filtering models backed by popularity-based models to offer products that might increase the shopping cart value.
