Search that answers with looks

AI search: and shopping assistant for fashion shops

AI search is a mixNmatch module for multimodal fashion search: shoppers describe what they want in their own words or with an image and get matching products and complete looks from your catalogue, then refine them with the styling assistant.

Search that understands occasions, styles and feelings, and a styling chat that turns the answer into an outfit ready to buy.

What is AI search in looks?

AI search in looks understands how people actually describe clothes.

A shopper can type “comfy red sneakers” or “outfit for a summer wedding”, or upload a photo of a piece they like, and the search returns matching products and complete looks from your range.

Where a keyword search needs the exact words of the product title, AI search works with the occasion, the style and the feeling behind a request, on the attributes from Smart Product Tags.

Why is keyword search not enough for fashion?

Shoppers think in occasions and outfits; shops answer with SKUs.

Someone looking for “an elegant look for a client dinner” will not type “blazer black wool”, and a keyword search will not connect the two. The result is a long list of single products, or none at all, and the visitor leaves: 94 per cent of customers abandon shopping due to irrelevant results.

AI search answers with a complete look instead, which also brings your secondary categories into view.

Can shoppers search with an image?

Yes. AI search is multimodal: shoppers can upload or photograph an item, an outfit or an inspiration picture, and combine it with text, for example a photo of a jacket plus “but in navy, for the office”.

The results respect colour family, occasion and fit, because these are attributes in your enriched data rather than guesses from the product title. AI search runs next to your current search, as a styling layer.

    Occasion, style and feeling are matched against your enriched product data.

  3. 03

    Looks and pieces come back

    Complete looks and matching products from your range, not a list of keyword hits.

Personal AI styling assistant

What does the AI styling assistant do?

The AI styling assistant brings the conversation of a good sales assistant into your online shop.

A shopper writes what they need, for example “a wedding in June, garden party, nothing too formal”, and the assistant answers with complete looks from your current range. The shopper reacts in their own words, “less colourful”, “with flat shoes”, and the looks are refined accordingly. Every suggestion links straight to the products. The assistant uses only your own catalogue, AI interactions are labelled in line with the EU AI Act, and what shoppers ask for becomes demand data for assortment planning.

Via REST API: available for rapid custom co-design and piloting

Common questions

What is the difference between AI search and the styling assistant?

AI search answers one request with products and complete looks. The styling assistant continues the conversation: the shopper refines the looks in her own words, for example “less formal” or “with flat shoes”. Both run on the same engine and the same product data.

What does AI search need from our side?

Your product feed. AI search runs on the attributes that Smart Product Tags add, so it can find products by style, occasion, fit and colour family even when the product title does not say so.

Does this replace our current search or personalisation tool?

Not necessarily. Most teams add mixNmatch as a styling layer next to what they already use.

Which languages do you support?

German and English.
