About StyleHub

StyleHub is a leading online fashion retailer with 2.5 million active customers and $480 million in annual revenue. Operating in the highly competitive fast-fashion market, the company faced challenges with generic product recommendations, high cart abandonment, and difficulty standing out from competitors. One-size-fits-all marketing and product displays meant customers saw the same content regardless of their preferences, leading to low engagement and conversion rates. The company recognized that AI-powered personalization could transform customer experience and drive revenue growth.
