AI Sell - S24 - Y Combinator Companies
Welcome to Unpod! Today, we’re exploring AI Sell, a Y Combinator-backed startup revolutionizing eCommerce with AI-powered sales associates.
Imagine visiting your favorite online store and getting personalized advice from an AI expert that knows every detail about the products. That’s what AI Sell is all about.
Traditional retail stores rely on sales associates to help customers make decisions, but scaling that level of personal attention online has always been a challenge. AI Sell bridges this gap by creating video-based AI agents tailored to a brand’s voice and product catalog. These AI agents guide customers through product discovery, answer questions, and help close sales.
Here’s how it works: AI Sell integrates directly into eCommerce platforms. The AI can detect when a customer is unsure or about to leave the site and engages them at just the right moment. It provides expert product recommendations and personalized guidance, boosting conversion rates and average order values. This technology gives online businesses the power of a skilled sales associate without the limitations of staffing costs or scale.
The company was founded by brothers Jerry and Jeffrey Liu, who bring impressive tech and eCommerce experience to the table. Jerry previously built software to optimize operations for over 50 Shopify brands at Openstore, while Jeffrey worked as an engineer at leading tech companies like Facebook, Amazon, and Snowflake. Together, they’re on a mission to make online shopping more engaging and effective for both customers and businesses.
AI Sell is redefining how eCommerce connects with customers, blending cutting-edge AI with the human touch we all value. If you enjoyed this deep dive, don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to Unpod for more exciting insights into Y Combinator-backed startups. See you in the next video!
