Shoppers often know what an item looks like but not the words to search for. ViSenze gives retailers visual search, catalog tagging, and recommendation APIs suited to image-heavy product catalogs.
Poor retail search buries relevant stock and costs conversions; Constructor uses shopper behavior to improve product discovery. It is especially good at ranking large catalogs around purchases rather than simple keyword matches.
Nosto personalizes ecommerce storefronts, giving merchandising teams practical control over recommendations, search, category ordering, and segmented content.
Klevu is built for ecommerce teams whose large catalogs have outgrown their platform’s default search. They choose it for relevant onsite results, practical merchandising controls, and discovery tools that work across established commerce stacks.
Lily AI enriches retail product catalogs with customer-centered attributes, helping enterprise brands improve product discovery, recommendations, and marketing feeds.
