Despite investing in website optimization tools, eCommerce brands are struggling to increase conversions. The user experience on most sites has plateaued, with little innovation in how shoppers search, explore, and make decisions. As customer behavior shifts toward AI-powered conversational tools, how can brands adapt their digital experiences to meet these expectations?
With experience developing generative AI for eCommerce, Darpan Saini maintains that brands can transform static sites into intelligent, interactive experiences. Traditional optimization tactics, like minor UI tweaks or static product filters, offer diminishing returns. Instead, Darpan recommends investing in AI-powered quizzes, personalized product detail pages, and conversational search that can adapt in real time to each shopper’s needs. By enabling one-to-one personalization without needing user data histories, brands can convert more first-time visitors, reduce returns, and stand out in a crowded market.
In this week’s episode of The Digital Deep Dive, Aaron Conant speaks with Darpan Saini, CEO of App0, about improving conversion rates through AI-powered shopping experiences. Darpan talks about the rise of voice commerce, how his company develops A/B testing to increase conversions, and offers advice for deploying AI-powered shopping assistants.
