In a move set to revolutionize the online shopping experience, Edge Video AI is proud to announce its newest partnership with OTTO Austria, a leading online retailer in the German-speaking market. This collaboration merges the cutting-edge technology of Edge Video AI with the extensive product catalog and market presence of OTTO Austria, creating a seamless and interactive shopping journey for consumers.

The Evolution of Shopping with AI

The retail landscape has been undergoing a digital transformation, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) is accelerating this shift. Edge Video AI stands at the forefront of this transformation with its innovative platform that analyzes video content in real-time to suggest shoppable items based on what viewers are watching. This technology is designed to enhance user engagement by bridging the gap between content consumption and e-commerce, allowing viewers to purchase items they see in videos without leaving their screen.

Imagine watching a cooking tutorial and being able to purchase the exact utensils and ingredients used by the chef, or viewing a fashion vlog and instantly buying the outfits showcased. Edge Video AI makes this possible by recognizing objects, clothing, and accessories in videos and providing direct links to purchase these items from partnered retailers.

OTTO Austria: A Retail Giant

OTTO Austria is part of the Otto Group, a global e-commerce and service conglomerate that began as a mail-order company in Hamburg. Today, the Otto Group encompasses 30 significant corporate groups operating in various segments including Platforms, Brand Concepts, Retailers, Services, and Financial Services.

OTTO Austria itself is a powerhouse in the online retail space, offering a wide range of products from fashion and electronics to home goods and beyond. Their dedication to customer satisfaction and innovation aligns perfectly with Edge Video AI’s mission to enhance the online shopping experience through AI technology.

A Strategic Partnership

The collaboration between Edge Video AI and OTTO Austria is a strategic alignment aimed at providing a more immersive and convenient shopping experience. By leveraging Edge Video AI’s technology, OTTO Austria can offer their customers the ability to shop directly from video content. This not only enhances the user experience but also drives engagement and conversion rates for retailers.

For consumers, this means no more tedious searches for products seen in videos. The AI-driven platform identifies the items in real-time and provides a seamless shopping experience, making it easier than ever to transition from viewing to purchasing.

Looking to the Future

This partnership with OTTO Austria is just the beginning for Edge Video AI. The successful integration of AI technology with one of the leading retailers in the German-speaking market sets the stage for potential future collaborations within the Otto Group, including the highly anticipated partnership with OTTO Germany.
