Spotify出身者、Eコマースのパーソナライゼーション改善のため1000万ドルを調達

malachyte, founded by ex-spotify engineers sidd motwani, ian anderson, and shivaditya sinha, raised $10m in seed funding led by bessemer venture partners and gradient to scale its ai-driven personalization platform. the technology utilizes 'two-headed vector ai' to predict user intent and taste immediately upon page load, refining recommendations based on real-time signals such as hovers, scrolls, and search refinements. this contrasts with standard e-commerce tools that rely on historical purchase data or demographic segments, often failing to serve anonymous visitors. after testing with enterprise clients in travel and retail, the platform is now generally available to shopify merchants and via api for larger retailers. the funds will be used to hire commercial leaders and expand distribution, aiming to bridge the gap between marketing and merchandising through unified customer intelligence.
