“COVID has accelerated what has been coined the retail apocalypse,” said CEO of OMNIOUS.AI, Jaeyoung Jun. “Fashion professionals need to adopt emerging technology now to both: solve their most pressing business challenges and ensure that they are equipped for the future. Just as brick and mortar retailers that refused to adapt to the e-commerce wave are facing bankruptcy now, modern retailers that fail to integrate AI will soon find themselves at a major disadvantage.” AI’s role in the fashion industry is projected to increase by 36.9% over the next 6 years, from $270M in 2018 to $4.4B in 2021.

“AI is forming the next wave of improvements in the online shopper experience,” Jun continued. “This technology can track individual shoppers’ preferences to provide hyper-personalized product recommendations within seconds of visiting a website. In theory, each shopper could see a completely different catalog of clothing items based on their own taste. For example, the largest luxury department store brand in Seoul, The Hyundai, is already reaping the benefits of our visual AI solutions. Last year amidst COVID, the retailer increased their CTR by 75% after adopting AI. We are excited to launch our solutions for US-based retailers to create similar results.”  With 15 branches across South Korea, The Hyundai is a conglomerate currently ranking 22nd in terms of assets and 20th in terms of net profits globally.

For the past six years, Samsung-Accelerated OMNIOUS.AI has also produced outcomes for fashion e-commerce leaders worldwide, including GS Shop, Lotte, Kakaostyle, LG Fashion, and more.  These initial successes enabled OMNIOUS.AI to secure an additional ~$10M in funding last week from leading financial companies: Mirae Asset Venture Investments, NH Investment Securities, and Quantum Ventures Korea. OMNIOUS.AI currently has 700+ customers. In 2020, the number of product recommendations by the OMNIOUS LENS increased threefold, exceeding 100M within one year of its launch, while the OMNIOUS TAGGER reached 1.2B+ tagged attributes.
