Product recommendation algorithm works like a voting system:

  • Product variants are linked to each choice.
  • When a customer picks a choice, all linked products receive one vote.
  • After the customer takes the quiz, the results page will show the most voted product variants sorted by the number of votes.
  • If no products have been linked or all the products have been excluded, the results page will appear empty.
  • If there's a draw in the number of votes, the app will randomize the order of products.
  • You can limit recommendations to a specific number of products or a minimum vote threshold
  • Supports arranging recommendations into Slots to recommend complete product routines
