FAQs
Can Ensemble AI personalize ensembles or collections?

How does Ensemble AI differ from standard product recommendation engines?
Traditional recommendation engines suggest individual items based on the page type, which can engage customers but may not lead to additional purchases.
Ensemble AI, however, presents full outfits or collections that inspire customers by showing how items work together. This approach encourages customers to buy multiple products, increasing conversion rates and order values.
Additionally, ensembles are highly interactive and visually appealing, delivering a differentiated shopping experience.
Further, unlike standard recommendations that use a single model, ensembles are created using multiple models to ensure the best product combinations for both the “seed” product and the outfit as a whole.

Can we customize the look and feel of the ensembles?
Yes, clients have full control over the visual design. You can either modify the default solution or create an entirely new look.
How does Ensemble AI handle seasonal changes or new product launches?
Ensembles are updated daily, based on the latest catalog feed. This ensures that the recommendations are always current. Changes to ensembles can be managed through style definitions.
