Lily AI is a tech startup founded by Purva Gupta that offers retailers and brands an AI-enabled platform designed to better connect their customers to the specific products that they need or that they might enjoy. In a nutshell, the platform utilizes algorithms and machine learning to improve brands' Webstore functions, including their search engines.
Today, Lily AI announced that it had secured $25 million in Series B funding, which was led by Canaan. With this latest investment, the startup has now raised a total of $41 million for its retail-focused AI platform.
“Different shoppers search uniquely, making it essential for retail e-commerce brands to build the right product taxonomy to capture both common and long-tail searches,” Gupta told TechCrunch via email. “Think of your own frustrating experiences on retail e-commerce sites and receiving irrelevant results or worse, no results at all, even when the product you’re looking for is clearly carried by that retailer.”
