People buy products all the time. It might be buying a new ski, picking out an outfit, getting new things for your kitchen, picking the right stroller for your child, or just about any other thing we buy. People are often full of anxiety and questions when making the purchasing choices that matter. Our goal is to use A.I. to give people peace of mind, and make these choices easier.
