How recommendations are generated
| Approach | When we use it |
|---|---|
| Collaborative filtering | Enough order/view history—users like you bought… |
| Content-based / embeddings | Rich attributes; cold start via visual embeddings (optional) |
| Session-based | Anonymous visitors—recent clicks in this visit |
| Hybrid | Most production stores—blend behavior + catalog similarity |
| Business rules layer | In-stock only, min margin, category diversity, exclude clearance |
| LLM explainability (optional) | Short why this match copy on cards—not the core ranker |
Rankings come from your events and catalog—not a generic marketplace model. Pair with AI shopping assistant.
