Announcing CONVA Omni  — Generative AI Augmented Multilingual Omni Search Assistant for e-commerce apps

A next generational search and discovery experience for shoppers that can be added on top of any e-commerce app

Search historically has been a very transactional activity. Esp inside e-commerce apps. Users typically begin their journey with a specific product or brand or a combination of them and the results show up in a vertical list. But the way users search these days are not keyword driven.

Over 50% of all web searches are questions looking for answers rather than keywords

And the need for search does not stop just at the search bar. Customers are looking for answers at every point in their purchase journey. But the way customers are expected to search is only via a "search bar", which is usually present only for catalog look up.

No wonder there are major drop offs that happen during the purchase journey

Only 1 in 20 app sessions result in a sale

#SearchBeyondTheBar

The way to solve this it to think of search not in its conventional means. Not as something that is limited to a search bar and certainly not one that just does keyword based search. What e-commerce apps need is the ability to be able to allow search both inside and out the search bar.
