What Are Product Recommendations?

Product Recommendations is a feature inside Leno AI's Shopping Assistant that lets you create curated product collections and connect them to specific search terms. When a customer types something like "best sellers" or "gift ideas" in the chat widget, Leno AI recognizes the intent and displays your hand-picked products — with images, names, and direct links to your store. You decide what gets recommended and when. No black-box algorithms, no random suggestions. Just the products you want customers to see, surfaced at the exact moment they're looking for them.

Why Product Recommendations Work

You know your products better than any algorithm. Now your chat widget does too.

SELL IN THE CONVERSATION

Recommend Products While Customers Are Already Engaged

Most product recommendations happen on a page customers might never visit. With LenoChat, recommendations appear inside the conversation — right when a customer is actively asking questions, browsing, or ready to buy. That's the difference between a suggestion and a sale.

Hand-Pick the Products That Matter

You select the products. You write the search terms. Leno AI handles the matching. When a customer mentions "free shipping" or "new arrivals," your curated collection appears instantly. No algorithms deciding for you — you stay in control of what customers see.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do search terms need to be an exact match?

Search terms are matched case-insensitively. Whether a customer types "Best Sellers" or "best sellers," the same recommendation triggers. Leno AI handles the matching so you don't need to worry about capitalization.

Can the same product appear in multiple recommendations?

Yes. A popular item can appear in "Best Sellers," "Gift Ideas," and "Sale Items" at the same time. There's no limit on how many recommendations a product can belong to.

What happens when I disable a recommendation?

Leno AI stops matching its search terms during conversations. The recommendation is saved with all its products and settings intact. Re-enable it whenever you're ready.

Do I need Shopify to use Product Recommendations?

Yes. Product Recommendations requires a Shopify integration because it pulls your product catalog from Shopify. You'll also need Product Catalog enabled and your products synced.

How many products should I add per recommendation?

We recommend 3 to 10 products per recommendation. Enough variety to be helpful, focused enough to avoid overwhelming the customer.

Is there a limit on how many recommendations I can create?

You can create up to 5 recommendations, each with up to 10 search terms. This keeps your setup focused and avoids conflicting matches.
