Constructor’s AI Shopping Assistant Wins Gold for Best Ecommerce Solution in 2024 Convrt Awards

Published

on

This marks the 2nd straight year Constructor has been honored in this program, devoted to ‘recognizing retail brilliance’

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Constructor, the leading AI-powered search and product discovery platform for enterprise ecommerce companies, today announced it is a gold (highest-level) winner in the 2024 Convrt Awards, a program dedicated to “recognizing retail brilliance.” Constructor’s AI Shopping Assistant, which supports conversational search queries, was named best ecommerce solution, with judges praising its “great use of GenAI [generative AI].”

The Convrt Awards are in their second year. This is also the second year Constructor has been recognized in this international program — earning best AI solution last year. The awards celebrate innovators “who make shopping smarter, smoother and even more beautiful” across all levels of retail: spanning ecommerce, AI tools, interactive experiences, inventory and more. This year’s judges hailed from AT&T, Bloomberg Intelligence, Johnson & Johnson, Quicksilver, Uber, Zappos.com and more.

“For years, there’s been no independent, authentic standard to recognize the designers, creators, engineers, solution providers and innovators behind the scenes of shopping,” said Douglas Hampton-Dowson, founder and executive director of the Convrt Awards. “These teams are constantly bringing new experiences to life for brands and customers worldwide, and we’re so excited to appreciate their work finally. Congratulations to Constructor and our other winners for their spirit of innovation — and, in particular, how their innovation drives great value.”

Constructor’s award-winning AI Shopping Assistant (ASA) is especially handy when shoppers are unsure of what to buy: such as when they’re starting a new hobby, buying a gift and so on. It breaks with traditional search paradigms — enabling shoppers on ecommerce sites to articulate their needs in longform, natural language (e.g., “I’m taking up indoor rock climbing. What supplies do I need?” or “Help me find an outfit for a beach wedding in the Caribbean in August.”). Search results make sense contextually, are in-stock and are personalized to the shopper at hand.

“We’re always looking at how to best engage shoppers — making the buying journey easier for them and helping ecommerce companies create excellent customer experiences,” said Nate Roy, strategic director of ecommerce innovation, Constructor. “We want to do this in a way that supports the retailer’s goals too, so they can increase conversions and boost metrics they care about most. We’re glad to do this with AI Shopping Assistant and Constructor’s platform as a whole, and are grateful for the recognition of this from the Convrt Awards.”

Constructor’s AI Shopping Assistant is in use with leading grocery, apparel and general retailers, who have achieved results including: 10% increase in website revenue, 6% increase in search conversions, 7% increase in clicks and more.

This award adds to recent accolades for Constructor. ASA also won gold as the best ecommerce solution in the 2024 International Business Awards®, American Business Awards® and Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence (where Constructor also won gold for ecommerce company of the year and executive of the year).

The two parties are exploring business opportunities in stablecoin payments and corporate treasury management.

Jointly identifying new use cases and business opportunities in stablecoin-based global payments and fund transfersReviewing the potential of digital asset-based financial infrastructure for global corporate finance and treasury managementLinking MoonPay’s global network with Dunamu’s GIWA blockchain to support global ecosystem expansion

NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MoonPay, a global crypto payments and stablecoin infrastructure company, is pursuing a strategic collaboration with Dunamu in the field of global financial infrastructure built on digital assets.

The two companies will jointly identify new business opportunities across areas including stablecoin-based global payments and fund movement, and corporate finance and treasury management. By combining MoonPay’s global financial services and network with Dunamu’s technology and business capabilities, including its GIWA blockchain, they plan to explore the potential applications of digital asset-based financial infrastructure.

First, the companies will look for collaboration opportunities in global payments and fund movement using stablecoins. Drawing on both companies’ technology and infrastructure, they will review a range of cases in which digital assets can be used for cross-border payments and fund transfers, and examine the business potential of new financial service models.

The companies will also pursue collaboration in global corporate finance and treasury management. They will jointly review ways to apply digital asset-based financial infrastructure to corporate finance and treasury operations, and identify related business opportunities and usage models.

Expanding Dunamu’s GIWA blockchain ecosystem is another key area of collaboration. Leveraging their respective global ecosystems and partner networks, the two companies will explore ways to broaden access to GIWA-based services and digital assets and strengthen the GIWA ecosystem’s global connectivity. In particular, by linking MoonPay’s global services and network with Dunamu’s blockchain infrastructure, they aim to increase overseas market access for services and assets within the GIWA ecosystem and jointly identify new business opportunities in global markets.

“For stablecoins to function as global financial infrastructure, it is important to have the technology and network to support not only cross-border payments and fund transfers, but also the real financial operations of businesses,” said Bugeon Lee, Head of APAC at MoonPay. “By combining Dunamu’s blockchain capabilities with MoonPay’s global financial infrastructure, we will explore new possibilities for digital assets and work together so that the GIWA ecosystem can expand into global markets.”

Going forward, MoonPay and Dunamu plan to firm up the technical and commercial potential in their main areas of collaboration, namely stablecoin-based global payments, corporate finance and treasury management, and GIWA ecosystem expansion, and to continue identifying new business opportunities that draw on both companies’ strengths.
