Artificial intelligence (AI) can be used with Octane AI quizzes to build a complete quiz with personalized product recommendations without the need to create quiz logic manually.

πŸ’‘ Prerequisites

Quiz AI can be enabled in the Settings tab of the quiz editor, or when creating a new quiz.


How does AI work in quizzes?

Octane AI is able to take information about your products that Shopify shares and use the questions & answers you create in a quiz to find the best match.

This means any AI quiz you create will be uniquely attuned to your brand from the moment you install.

Here's how it works.

  • Octane AI will begin learning about your store's products as soon as you install.

  • You create the questions & answers that you'd like to ask customers.

  • AI analyzes the best products that match the set of questions & answers someone picks while taking a quiz.

Making changes to quiz results can be as easy as editing a question's wording, or adding a tag in Shopify.

What can you do with quiz AI?

Use quiz AI to quickly create quizzes that recommend personalized products - without having to create any logic yourself.

  • Quickly start - jump into a working quiz with templates.

  • Test new ideas - try new quizzes without building logic. Holiday quizzes, ad-specific quizzes and quizzes for specific collections are just a small portion of revenue-boosting ideas you can try with instantly generated results.

  • A virtual store assistant you can share - create a conversational shopping experience that you can link in your store, in ads and even share quiz results in automated flows through integrations.

Quiz AI can be used to create working quizzes without demanding the bandwidth that planning and building logic manually can require.

However, a great way to take AI quizzes to the next level is by adding manually-curated product & content blocks alongside AI recommendations to secure result page conversions.

Activating AI in quizzes

πŸ“• Creating an AI quiz from a template or existing quiz

  1. Open the quiz in the quiz editor.

  2. In the left menu, click on the Settings tab.

  3. Under PRODUCT RESULTS click on "AI (Artificial intelligence".

  4. Click "Switch to AI results" when prompted.

If you're converting an existing quiz to AI, create a copy of the quiz first so you don't lose any of the existing logic.

πŸ“• Creating an AI quiz from scratch

  1. On the quiz page, click New quiz.

  2. In the next screen, click on "Start from scratch" in the upper right hand corner.

  3. Select AI (Artificial intelligence) when entering the name of the quiz.

That's it! Once you save the quiz in AI mode, you can preview the quiz right away to test it.
