What is Refine?

Refine is an AI-powered search and recommendations platform that helps e-commerce stores deliver relevant product discovery experiences. Our visual AI understands what products look like, enabling natural language search, image-based discovery, and intelligent recommendations.

Core Capabilities

Text Search

Natural language queries with visual understanding. Search for “red summer dress” and get visually similar results, not just keyword matches.

Image Search

Upload an image to find visually similar products. Perfect for “shop the look” experiences.

Recommendations

Similar items, visitor-based, and user-based personalization powered by visual AI and behavioral signals.

Product Listing Pages

Curated, merchandised collections with pinned products and intelligent ranking.
