AVA (Acquire, Validate, Adapt) marks the introduction of FaceCake’s next-generation AI and AR Stylist, an adaptive, interactive personal shopper that functions independently or on any eCommerce site. This collaboration has expedited AVA's deployment to Google Cloud. The initiative, facilitated by Wursta Corporation, a Premier Google Cloud Partner, showcases the cloud's capability for scalable solutions. FaceCake’s CEO, Linda Smith, will introduce AVA at the Google Next ’24 event at the Mandalay Bay Resort, Las Vegas, from April 9-11, 2024.
AVA, a cutting-edge AI personal shopper and stylist, engages digital consumers in a manner previously unseen; with its sophisticated multimodal interface, it initiates interaction with shoppers, disrupting the conventional chat UIs where users are typically the ones to initiate conversation. Powered by FaceCake's novel AI, AVA offers responsive recommendations tailored to the user's preferences and leverages FaceCake’s AR platform, allowing shoppers to virtually Try-On recommended products during a live session. AVA can facilitate AR Try-Ons and generate suggestions directly from any webpage.
