CONVIDI: Conversational Commerce for Increased Conversion

Client Company

A well known European online store getting around 11 million website visits per month & a Norwegian online store SWIMS, selling footwear, outerwear, and accessories for men.

Challenge

Our clients are key figures on the local European E-com markets. The pandemic has contributed to E-business development.
The COVID-19 global E-commerce surge was initially born out of necessity. Online shopping provided a practical alternative as retail locations closed and people stayed in to avoid the virus. In fact  global e-commerce rose from 15% of total retail sales in 2019 to 21% in 2021.
However these two clients faced the following challenges:

  1. Low conversion rates
  2. Poor user experience with chatbots
  3. High return rates
  4. Ineffective recommendations functionality

Technology Background

The system is based on neural networks, machine learning and AI-algorithms. The core of the solution are factorization machines (FM) and big data processing methodologies for meaningful recommendations.

Factorization Machines:

  • collect, process, and analyze millions of data in just a few minutes;
  • estimate parameters under very sparse data and therefore scale to fit large data sets;
  • automatically extract critical components from the data set;
  • make a forecast based on AI algorithms;
  • as a result, provide purposeful recommendations for recommendation systems.
