Newegg Leverages AI to Summarize Customer Reviews 

Artificial Intelligence has made headlines again with customer review data. Newegg has developed generative AI technology to summarize product reviews to help shoppers understand the aggregate opinions of consumers who used the product to inform their next purchase.  

“With Newegg’s deep commitment to leveraging generative AI to improve the customer experience, offering ChatGPT-powered customer review summaries is the latest addition of our cutting-edge AI toolset,” said Andrew Choi, Director of Brand and Website Experience for Newegg. “The process of analyzing relevant information to make a purchase decision can be arduous. Viewing valuable customer feedback efficiently should remove some of the friction that shoppers encounter.” 

To maintain transparency and build trust, AI-generated content is clearly labeled by Newegg, ensuring shoppers understand the difference between the AI summary and the original product reviews. 

 

Square Launches New Booking App 

Expanding access to the personal care and beauty industries, Square has launched the Square Go app. Square Go provides consumers access to one of the largest networks of beauty and personal care businesses in the industry.  

“Square Go has helped me reach another level of clientele I didn’t know I could by increasing visibility of my business, which also helps us financially,” said Justin Lavalle, Owner of J Lava Salon in Winter Park, FL. “Square Go has added tremendous value to both my salon and clients by creating a professional look and ease of booking for my clients. Now, clients don’t need to stop their workday to call me and schedule appointments, but they can do it all themselves, which also helps save me time.” 

Square Go offers new, convenient features for consumers: 

  • Users can book appointments with new businesses in their area and select the best choice for them through various filters on location, service, and availability, for a streamlined, convenient experience.  

  • The mobile app suggests businesses based on a consumer’s previous booking patterns to better recommended suitable services.  

  • Consumers can receive appointment notifications and manage bookings through Square Go by confirming, rescheduling, or canceling appointments. Square found a 55% decrease in no-shows among Square Go users. 

  • Square Go makes rebooking more manageable by showcasing previous appointment history, helping grow customer satisfaction and retention, with 30% of consumers rebooking after seeing a suggestion to do so within the app.
