How does the Recommendation works ?

Products recommendation are based on an algorithm that predicts the most relevant products based on the product a customer is interacting with. Below is an example template of how recommended products could appear on a product page:

The algorithm that handles recommended products is basically based on data about products with similar descriptions and products that were purchased together. It uses these data to provide a mix of those related products as recommendations for a given product.

In case where product description or purchase data aren’t available for a given product, products from a similar or related collection are shown. The algorithm uses the collection in the URL from which the request to the API endpoint originated, and pulls other products from that collection. If the product doesn’t have a collection URL, then the recommendation algorithm finds collections that include the product and pulls other products from those instead (excluding collections with handles “all” and “frontpage”).
