How Kogan Drove $10.1M in Incremental Revenue with Marqo

Kogan.com, one of Australia's largest online retailers, successfully leveraged Marqo's AI-driven search platform to generate $10.1 million in incremental revenue, highlighting the tool's efficacy in managing extensive, complex catalogs. Operating with over 16 million products and experiencing constant catalog churn due to its hybrid model of first-party inventory and third-party marketplace products, Kogan faced significant challenges with traditional search systems, which struggled with vocabulary diversity, long-tail queries, and cross-category intent. Marqo's dedicated AI model, trained specifically on Kogan's catalog, offered instant understanding of new products, cross-category intelligence, and effective handling of long-tail queries, thus eliminating the cold-start problem and improving search relevance across the board. This transition not only led to a substantial increase in revenue but also prompted Kogan to expand its use of Marqo's full product suite, underscoring the platform's capability to provide enterprise-scale solutions for large and diverse retailers.
