Generative AI went from hype to results. Global brands are already using it to serve customers in real time, produce product descriptions at scale and anticipate demand. But there is one unavoidable condition: without reliable data and integrated systems (ERP, e-commerce, CRM, WMS), AI is left on a pilot.
Here you will see real and verified cases, the integration requirements to take them to production and how Weavee —with Universal Connection— helps you achieve it.
Los examples they are too many and are public. Amazon Rufus works as a trained conversational assistant with catalog and reviews for answer questions, compare products and recommend in context; Sainsbury's Apply GenAI for promotions by location and improve the online search; and Sephora customize recommendations and tutorials.
This evidence points to a pattern: useful models assembled about business data accessible via API and updated.
At a macro scale, Intellias points out that, according to McKinsey, GenAI can generate USD 400—600 billion of value in retail and reduce forecast errors meaningfully when fed with adequate data.
Translate it into operation: fewer stock breaks, better turnover and campaigns that reach the right person with the right message.

Peak queues, inconsistent responses across channels, agents without context (order, stock, policies), high costs for repeated contacts and transfers.
Imagine that a customer writes: “I want to change the size of order #12345”. The bot consults the WHO/ERP to validate status and change window, Read policies and issues a return or pickup label. If it detects a low probability of automatic resolution, Scale to human with all the context.
With a solid, safe and efficient Universal Connection, which acts as Hub of integration: Orchestre calls between e-commerce, ERP, WMS and CRM; normalizes data (names/formats); enable flows in real time with monitoring and alerts. The conversation doesn't “guess”: Consult reliable sources.
In addition, the iPaaS platform operates on Microsoft Azure and prioritize certified security (ISO 27001, SOC 2, FedRAMP) and encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) according to industry practices.
Thousands of SKUs and variants, heterogeneous content by country/language, “content times” that slow down releases, and unpredictable SEO.
Design a flow editorial: intake of attributes (material, measures, benefits), pictures, compliance rules and brand consistency; the AI proposes the text, a reviewer approves/adjusts it and Universal Connection publish in your CMS/e-commerce and synchronize with marketplaces. If the stock runs out, the flow Update messages or automatically pause the promotion.
Weavee PIM/ERP/e-commerce maps, transforms fields (e.g., “color_ext” → “color”), Normalize languages, establishes versioning and rollback and shove changes to each channel. Minimize rework and prevent a layout change from “breaking” your templates.
Overstock/stockouts, reactive purchases, flat forecasts and decisions without early signs of region, weather or campaigns.
Field practice: feed the model with sales by SKU/channel, returns, Lead Times, promotions and campaign calendar, rotation and, when applicable, external signs (weather, events). Predictions should writing suggestions in ERP/WMS (replacement, transfers) and Feed back with real sales to improve.
Universal Connection Break silos (ERP/WMS/CRM/E-commerce), Standardize nomenclatures and Expose APIs high performance. Your GenAI engine consumes reliable data in real time and returns results Actionable (orders, transfers, alerts), with observability and alerts.
The chain starts with acquisition, validation and standardization: Without cleaning up duplicates, formats and values, AI generates inconsistent results.
The value appears when sales, catalog, inventory, customers and logistics are found. The composable approach requires API-first and orchestration to synchronize changes between systems.
Encrypted in transit (HTTPS/TLS), secret management, access control by role and auditing; in addition, observability of flows and alerts to detect faults early. Weavee operates on Microsoft Azure and stands out ISO 27001, SOC 2 and FedRAMP.
Peaks (campaigns/seasons) demand queues/events, real-time or batch processing, and predictable latencies for conversational experiences and quick sites.
TMO/ASA (average attention/wait time), FCR (resolution at first contact), CSAT/NPS, containment rate (automated vs. scaled), cost per contact.
Publication speed per SKU/variant, consistency (full attributes by category), CTR organic, positioning in internal searches, conversion rate per token.
MAPE of the forecast, Stockouts per family, rotation (sell-through), OTIF (on time in full), Fixed assets and margin.
Latency by endpoint, wrongs (4xx/5xx), retry events, SLA by integration, recovery time in the face of incidents.
Generative AI is indeed transforming retail, but not magically: it happens when models consume reliable data and They operate in your systems.
Real cases — conversational assistance (H&M, IKEA, eBay, The North Face), content at scale (Amazon, Shopify) and predictive analytics (Target) — prove that the combination GenAI+ solid integration improves experience, efficiency and margin.
In this regard, Weavee provides the layer of orchestration and governance To make this work In weeks and not in eternal projects.
