How PSYKHE AI Computes Taste

Understanding PSYKHE AI's personalization engine.

PSYKHE AI is powered by a patented psychographic world model to personalize product recommendations for each visitor.

Personalization Approach

Unlike traditional recommendation engines that rely solely on collaborative filtering ("customers who bought X also bought Y"), PSYKHE AI builds a real-time taste profile for each visitor by combining psychographic signals from browsing behavior with other latent and non-latent signals.

This means:

  • Anonymous visitors start getting personalized results from the first tracked interaction - a single click is enough to begin shaping the session profile
  • Returning users benefit from both real-time session signals and longer-term preference data
  • Ranking is dynamic and adapts as user behavior changes during a session

How It Works

  1. Product Intelligence - We ingest your catalog and use computer vision and NLP to ascribe multi-dimensional embeddings fine-tuned to your catalog
  2. Behavior Collection - The Tracking API captures user interactions: page views, list views, clicks, add-to-cart, dwell time, and hovers
  3. Profile Building - PSYKHE AI's models combine psychographic signals with other latent and non-latent signals to identify the taste patterns and drivers behind each decision
  4. Real-Time Ranking - When a product list is requested, the Recommendation API ranks products in real time based on the user's profile
  5. Continuous Learning - Each interaction refines the profile, improving recommendations throughout the session

Surfaces

PSYKHE AI can power per-user real-time personalization anywhere products appear, but broadly across three commerce surfaces:

  • Browse (Category) - Product listing pages ranked per-user in real time
  • Search - Search results calibrated by personal relevance
  • Carousels - Recommendation widgets like "You May Also Like", "More Like This", and "Not Found" (personalized suggestions for empty search or 404 pages)
