Parsionate and porta Win Best Retail Cases Award
Artificial Intelligence in the mid-size space: Parsionate and its customer porta were awarded the Best Retail Cases Award 2023, and for good reason. The two companies worked together to develop an AI-based similarity algorithm that increased porta's email marketing performance by up to 50%.
porta is one of Germany’s largest family-run furnishing companies. In order to provide personalized product recommendations to users of the online store who have initially decided against a purchase, porta has developed an AI-based similarity algorithm together with Parsionate. In automated email campaigns, prospects are now suggested comparable and thus relevant products in a similar or lower price range. The goal: to increase click and conversion rates and turn shopping cart abandoners into customers.
