What We Do
Constructor is the only AI product discovery platform designed explicitly for ecommerce retailers. Unlike other product search and discovery platforms, machine learning is in Constructor’s DNA, bringing dynamic personalization to the customer experience. Constructor's cloud-based solutions use natural language processing, machine learning, and collaborative personalization to deliver powerful user experiences across all facets of product discovery—from search to browse, recommendations, collections, and autosuggest. We optimize revenue before relevance. This has allowed us to generate consistent $10M+ lifts for our customers, which include some of the biggest brands in retail like Sephora, Backcountry, Bonobos, Serena & Lily, Target Australia, Birkenstock, and more. Constructor is a U.S. based company that was founded in 2015 by Eli Finkelshteyn and Dan McCormick.
