Syte’s apparel-specific AI engine boosts conversions, reduces bounce rates, and drives higher revenue per user for leading brands and marketplaces through better product recommendations.

NEW YORK, Dec. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Syte, the only AI-powered product recommendation engine built from the ground up for apparel eCommerce, today announced a strategic partnership with global lifestyle brand Perry Ellis. This multi-year collaboration leverages Syte’s advanced AI technology to enhance the Perry Ellis online shopping experience with highly relevant product suggestions that drive conversions, reduce out of stocks, increase average order value, and maximize revenue per user.

Syte’s recommendation engine has been a game-changer for us, said Jay Nigrelli, EVP of Direct to Consumer at Perry Ellis

Syte’s proprietary recommendation engine is trained on billions of shopper interactions across millions of eCommerce apparel product pages. Unlike one-size-fits-all solutions, Syte’s AI understands the specific elements that drive conversions for apparel: size, fit, color, material, style, brand, category, gender, occasion, vibe and more. This deep understanding enables Perry Ellis to present customers with precisely relevant products, even when specific items are out of stock, ensuring an engaging and friction-free shopping experience.

For Perry Ellis, the partnership with Syte reinforces a commitment to a smooth, customer-centered shopping journey. “Syte’s recommendation engine has been a game-changer for us,” said Jay Nigrelli, EVP of Direct to Consumer at Perry Ellis. “Our customers can find what they’re looking for faster, and we’re seeing measurable improvements in metrics like average order value and customer satisfaction. This partnership allows us to offer an intuitive, enjoyable shopping experience, and we look forward to deepening our relationship with Syte as we continue to innovate.”

“We’re excited to announce our partnership with Perry Ellis, a brand committed to delivering exceptional eCommerce experiences,” said Ziv Ben-Baruch, CEO of Syte. “Brands spend millions to drive shoppers to their sites, and we help them maximize that investment by converting browsers into buyers. Our premium AI-powered recommendation engine, built exclusively for apparel, ensures that customers see relevant products, reducing bounce rates, increasing order values, and driving measurable revenue growth. Syte’s technology is designed to meet the unique needs of apparel shoppers, creating a seamless and impactful shopping journey.”

Syte’s recommendation technology integrates seamlessly across Perry Ellis’s entire eCommerce ecosystem, enabling relevant suggestions to appear wherever customers engage—especially on their product listing pages and product description pages where shoppers may like what they see but want to browse similar products quickly. With a streamlined infrastructure that allows rapid onboarding, Syte enables Perry Ellis to quickly enhance eCommerce performance and deliver optimized customer experiences.

Through this partnership, Syte provides Perry Ellis with the tools to drive immediate results and long-term sales growth by optimizing key eCommerce metrics like conversion rate, bounce rate, and basket size. As competition intensifies, Syte’s AI-powered engine helps Perry Ellis achieve lasting impact with relevant, high-quality recommendations that keep customers engaged and returning.

Recognition marks seventh consecutive quarter Achieve has ranked among the nation’s top lenders for customer satisfaction

SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Achieve, the fintech for everyday Americans, has been named one of the Top 3 lenders in personal loan customer satisfaction by LendingTree for the third quarter of 2026. This distinction from one of the nation’s largest online personal finance marketplaces underscores Achieve’s commitment to delivering transparent, supportive, and human-centered financial services.

This marks the seventh consecutive LendingTree customer service award that Achieve has earned, following a top-three ranking in the second quarter of 2026. The quarterly ranking is published by LendingTree, based on verified customer reviews and other data evaluating lenders on transparency, ease of the application process and the quality of customer service. Achieve consistently maintains high ratings for providing consumers with a clear path toward improving their financial health.

“For someone consolidating debt, a personal loan is more than a transaction. It’s an opportunity to improve their finances and move forward with greater confidence,” said Achieve President of Lending Kyle Enright. “Our team helps members understand their options and find the solution that fits their goals by pairing competitive fixed rates with personal guidance.

This initiative, supported by advanced underwriting and enhanced with FICO® Score 10 T data, maintains access to fixed-rate loans for an expanded set of consumers, with an expected improvement in credit performance. These loans are originated by a bank partner via the Achieve Personal Loans platform.

Key highlights of the Achieve Personal Loan experience:

Competitive, fixed rates: APRs now start as low as 6.25% for qualified borrowers, providing a more affordable alternative to high-interest credit card debt.Rapid funding: Qualified members can have funds sent in as little as 24 hours to address immediate financial needs.Flexible terms: Borrowers can choose repayment schedules ranging from 2, 3, 4 and 5 years to align with their specific budget and goals.Transparent pricing: All loans feature fixed monthly payments and a clear payoff date, with no hidden fees or revolving balances.

The national campaign brings together leading healthcare experts, mental health advocates, organizations, athletes and public figures to encourage more open conversations around men’s mental health and provide accessible, actionable resources for building healthier lives.

Through personal stories, expert insights and practical resources, the campaign directly challenges the expectation that men should navigate mental health struggles alone while encouraging a more open and supportive approach to overall well-being. “I wish people would take care of their mental health the way we take care of our dental health,” said Howie Mandel. His perspective reflects the campaign’s broader mission to normalize mental health care as an essential part of everyday health and encourage men to prioritize their well-being before they reach a point of crisis.

The campaign was made possible through the participation and support of Vibrant Emotional Health, Financial Therapy Association, NOCD, Spear Center, NeuroStar Advanced Therapy, American Association of Kidney Patients, Crisis Text Line, YMCA, One Mind at Work, The Hidden Opponent, Kevin Love Fund, American College of Sports Medicine, Whitman-Walker, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, American Psychiatric Association, Dr. Mark Hyman, Yung Pueblo, Kevin Love, Howie Mandel and Jake Shane.
