AI assistants to help customers shop for supplements, wine

Store artificial intelligence (AI) assistants, developed with Google, for recommending health supplements and wine. By taking an in-store body composition test and inputting health goals in a system, customers will be informed by the Unity Recommender AI assistant what health products can help them achieve their wellness objectives. The test takes around 30 seconds to capture details such as height, muscle mass, body fat percentage and age.

Customers can also consult an AI-powered wine sommelier for recommendations. A webpage will pop up when customers scan a QR code or tap their phones on an electronic label to ask for wine taste preferences and the food the wine would be paired with.

"Without the AI assistants, it will be very difficult for a person to choose from 50 different products," said Mr Seah.
