Guide for Magento 2 AI Product Recommendation
Live Demo
Magento 2 Product Recommendations extension is an additional feature for the Magento 2 e-commerce platform.
It allows the store admins to enable AI-based product recommendations on their Magento 2 store.
Magento 2 AI product recommendation utilizes artificial intelligence to suggest products to the customers in the Adobe Commerce store.
The AI algorithm analyzes the products viewed by the customer and provides product suggestions using the embedding technique.
It matches the products’ names, SKUs, super attributes, searchable attributes, and filterable attributes to suggest similar products in the Magento store.
Check the overview of Magento 2 AI Product Recommendations below –
You can also check our Magento 2 AI Image Search Extension where a customer can search for products based on images using AI technology.
For added functionality, consider exploring the Magento 2 Image Background Removal extension to remove image backgrounds.
Also, you can check the Adobe Commerce AI reporting dashboard that give you an upper hand on enhanced data analysis within the Magento 2 store.

Below Image Shows How to Train Data/Generate Embeddings
Storefront – Workflow AI Product Recommendation
After the successful configuration of the module, on the product page, it will generate the AI Recommended section for products suggested by AI.
Adjusting the distance value to 1 and the show products value to 5 in the backend will more accurately display five products recommended by AI.
let us take another product’s example: changing the distance value to 4 and the show products value to 7 in the backend.
Similarly, the admin can choose the number of products to be recommended by the AI and the accuracy of the suggestion as per his choice.
