The Platform
Nexty.one is an AI shopping assistant I co-founded through DAPE Labs. Instead of browsing catalogs and filtering by checkboxes, users describe what they’re looking for in natural language. Think “comfortable weekend outfit under €50” or “waterproof wireless earbuds with long battery life” and the AI finds, compares, and recommends products across multiple retailers.
The platform learns user preferences, style, budget, and shopping behavior over time, making recommendations increasingly personalized with every interaction.
Architecture
Built as a Laravel + Inertia + Vue 3 monolithic application with TypeScript, backed by PostgreSQL. The AI layer handles natural language understanding, product matching across retailers, and preference learning. It goes beyond keyword search to understand context, mood, and occasion. Mailchimp handles newsletter and subscriber management, with multi-language support across the entire platform.
Core features
- Conversational shopping: natural language product search that understands context like “outfit for a Friday party” or “cozy living room furniture”
- Cross-platform search: aggregates products from multiple retailers simultaneously
- Preference learning: AI learns style, brand preferences, budget constraints, and shopping patterns over time
- Smart builders: interactive tools for assembling complete outfits, room setups, or travel kits with mix-and-match capability
- Product + service bundling: recommends related services alongside products (e.g., furniture with installation)
- Ad-free recommendations: suggestions based on user preferences, not paid placement
- Multi-language: Slovak, English, and additional language support
My Role
Co-founder and lead engineer. Built the full platform: Laravel + Inertia + Vue 3 monolith, AI integration, Mailchimp newsletter system, multi-language translations, GA4 analytics, Cookiebot consent management, deployment on Docker behind Cloudflare.
Status
Product development discontinued after market research indicated insufficient product-market fit. Landing page remains live at nexty.one.
