Our take
Online shopping has vastly increased the reach of stores and put a wealth of products at consumer’s fingertips. However, tedious searches are one cause for online carts to be abandoned before purchase. Constructor.io, founded in 2015, builds technology to counter the search element behind these unfinished purchases, with a powerful product discovery platform for eCommerce businesses.
eCommerce searching is generally poor, lagging behind the power of large search engines, in part due to low system intelligence. Constructor.io’s search employs AI, machine learning and natural language processing to return relevant results for search and browse functions, as well as for recommendations and autosuggest. A host of other novel search technologies have launched recently, but Constructor remains the leader in the space, with significant backing and high levels of growth.
Constructor.io already serves big-name customers including Sephora and Walmart’s Bonobos. It has raised impressive funding that it intends to use to expand operations and business reach.
