Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention pertains to artificial intelligence in consumer technology, focusing on a device designed to optimize online shopping experiences. AI ShopBuddy combines advanced AI algorithms, data analytics, and machine learning (ML) techniques to provide personalized product recommendations, real-time market insights, and interactive decision-making support, enhancing user satisfaction and efficiency in online shopping.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The rapidly expanding e-commerce landscape offers a vast array of products, creating challenges for consumers who face information overload, lack of personalization, and market inefficiencies. Conventional recommendation systems on e-commerce platforms often fail to capture individual preferences, relying on generalized data rather than personalized shopping behaviors. Additionally, online shoppers encounter dynamic pricing and limited real-time information, complicating the decision-making process and often leading to missed opportunities or unoptimized purchases.
This invention addresses these limitations by integrating AI, ML, and data analytics within a single, user-friendly device, AI ShopBuddy. By analyzing user-specific data such as browsing behavior and purchase history, AI ShopBuddy offers personalized recommendations, tracks real-time pricing and availability across multiple platforms, and provides targeted notifications for price drops and promotions. Its intuitive user interface, incorporating voice-activated commands and natural language processing (NLP), enables seamless interaction, allowing users to explore products, compare prices, and make informed choices without the overwhelming burden of manual research.
