Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

To drive frequency and ticket size, the retailer built an AI engine ('Deep Brew') that personalizes the mobile app experience for millions of users. It uses contextual data (weather, time of day, store inventory, user history) to recommend specific products and customize offers in real-time.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"A leading example of AI-driven loyalty. By shifting from generic marketing to 1:1 personalization, the entity successfully increased the 'habit' factor. The tight integration with inventory (not recommending out-of-stock items) is a critical operational bridge often missed by peers."

warning The Challenge

With millions of daily transactions, generic marketing was losing effectiveness. Customers were overwhelmed by menu choices. The brand needed a way to increase spend-per-visit (upsell) without slowing down the ordering process or annoying users with irrelevant offers.

psychology The Solution

Deep Brew runs on Azure RL (Reinforcement Learning). It treats every app session as a unique context. If it's a hot day, it suggests cold brew. If the store is out of oat milk, it suppresses oat milk lattes. It optimizes for the 'next best action' to maximize lifetime value.
