RYA has partnered with THE MVEye to launch the Intelligence Dashboard, an AI-driven research platform designed specifically for the gem, jewelry, and watch industries. This joint venture addresses a long-standing challenge in luxury retail — brands have struggled to craft meaningful narratives around products like lab-grown diamonds, which have seen dramatic price drops (research indicates the price has fallen 74% since 2020) and now dominate 45% of engagement ring sales in the US, yet remain poorly understood by consumers beyond their lower cost.
The Intelligence Dashboard combines RYA’s ability to analyze nine billion real-time data points across over 200 passion signals with THE MVEye’s 35 years of sector-specific consumer benchmarks. The result is an AI-driven research platform that predicts campaign impact before launch.

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Jewelry-specific AI
- Sector-trained research engines are reshaping luxury intelligence by turning real-time passion signals and historical consumer benchmarks into more precise product, pricing, and campaign forecasts.
- Predictive Luxury Marketing
- Pre-launch campaign modeling creates new room for jewelry and watch brands to test narrative resonance before investing in media, retail activations, or influencer partnerships.
- Lab-grown Diamond Storytelling
- Consumer education around lab-grown diamonds is evolving beyond price comparisons as data-led narratives clarify value, sustainability perceptions, and emotional purchase drivers.
Sectors Adopting This
- Jewelry
- AI-powered category intelligence gives jewelers a way to interpret shifting engagement ring demand, material preferences, and consumer sentiment with greater market specificity.
- Luxury Retail
- Real-time behavioral analytics introduce a more adaptive luxury retail model where brand stories, merchandising, and clienteling can reflect emerging passion signals.
- Market Research
- Specialized AI dashboards are expanding traditional research by combining live data streams with long-term sector benchmarks to forecast commercial impact more quickly.
