Recent engagements

Ecommerce & Gen AI

At Knowillence, we leveraged Generative AI to elevate a retailer’s e-commerce portal into an intelligent, customer-centric platform. We automated product descriptions and personalized recommendations using AI-generated content tailored to individual shopper behavior. We also implemented visual AI features that enabled smart image-based searches. The result: higher engagement, improved conversions, and a seamless, data-driven retail experience.

Stockist-Centric Inventory Control: From Order to Serial Traceability

At Knowillence, we helped a retail stockist bring precision and control to their inventory operations by enabling stock blocking against confirmed customer orders. This ensured that committed inventory was reserved in real-time, preventing double-selling and improving order fulfillment reliability. We also implemented a system to map each order to the serial numbers of products sold, providing traceability from warehouse to customer.
