Ask Profitero performs two primary capabilities – quickly curating actionable insights from digital shelf and market share data as well as producing AI generated content for retailer websites from Profitero’s trusted predictive analytics suite, all within the brand’s private environment. For example, a sales manager can use Ask Profitero to easily understand all products losing market share and identify the root causes, such as issues with product availability, search or negative reviews, while at the same time isolating the factors causing competitors to gain share. A marketer can swiftly identify top searched-for keywords in their category and in minutes, generate optimized titles to boost organic search rank and conversion. Innovation teams can rapidly synthesize consumer reviews to surface new product ideas.
“AI is only as smart as the data you feed it. At Profitero, we have the advantage of being able to build an incredibly smart and reliable solution because we’re starting with our best in class analytics from more than 1,000 retailers in more than 50 countries,” said Bryan Wiener, Profitero’s CEO. “Combining our data quality and scale with AI’s ability to simplify complex data will drive transformative growth for brands.”
