Overview
In the competitive retail landscape of the UAE and KSA, standard e-commerce search functionality is no longer sufficient. Shoppers frequently have a specific style, product, or aesthetic in mind but struggle to express it through text-based search alone.
SUDO deploys Agentic AI Personal Shoppers on Amazon Bedrock that go beyond passive recommendations. Customers can upload a photo, describe a need in Arabic or English, or speak their intent — and the AI agent autonomously reasons across the product catalog, applies constraints, and stages a personalized cart ready for checkout.
SUDO moves retailers from suggesting products to autonomously executing the discovery journey on behalf of every customer.
Challenge
The Friction That Costs Retailers Revenue
By the time a customer encounters these friction points, they have already begun to disengage. This increases abandonment rates, reduces average order value, and limits the ability of retailers to build lasting customer relationships.
Retail organizations often face:
1
Customers abandoning searches because they cannot describe the product they want using standard text queries
2
Legacy chatbots that rely on rigid scripts and cannot process images, voice, or multi-step styling requests
3
Static recommendation engines that offer generic suggestions rather than contextual, intent-driven styling
4
A gap between social media inspiration and the ability to translate that into a completed purchase
5
Lost cross-sell opportunities because recommendations are not connected to the customer's real-time context
Solution
An Agentic Personalization Engine on Amazon Bedrock
SUDO deploys a multi-modal agentic AI platform on AWS that processes customer intent across text, voice, and image — and autonomously executes the full discovery and cart preparation workflow.
Amazon Bedrock
Powers the multi-modal conversational agent, enabling visual reasoning, natural-language understanding, and autonomous multi-step decision making across the product catalog.

Key Capabilities
Visual Reasoning and Style Advisory
The agent extracts design language from uploaded images, applies natural-language constraints, and returns highly specific, contextually matched product recommendations.
Autonomous Cart Staging
The agent selects correct sizes based on past purchases, applies eligible promotional codes, and stages a ready-to-review cart, with the customer retaining full control over the final purchase decision.
Conversational Discovery with Streaming Updates
Customers express complex intents naturally and receive intermediate progress updates in real time, turning processing time into an engaging experience.
Multi-Modal Input Support
Customers shop using text, voice, or uploaded images interchangeably, removing the dependency on knowing exact product names or filtering terminology.
Real-Time Inventory Intelligence
The high-performance inventory twin ensures product availability, pricing, and promotions are always current with no lag between catalog changes and agent responses.
Business Impact
Retailers benefit from:
- Increased average order value through dynamic, context-aware product styling and cross-selling
- Significant reduction in search abandonment by enabling customers to shop via image, voice, and natural language
- Near-zero wait times for personalized product discovery and customer support
- Higher repeat purchase rates through frictionless, hyper-personalized shopping experiences
- Stronger customer loyalty built on experiences that reflect individual intent
By deploying an agentic shopping engine on AWS, retailers transform the digital storefront from a passive catalog into an always-on personal concierge that executes on behalf of every customer.
