We are excited to announce that AddZest (formerly Oasiis Insights) has become our most recent addition to our track record. AddZest automates e-commerce personalization in web3 by analyzing customer wallet data, which boosts revenue through higher conversation rates while protecting user privacy. - Author: Albert Sugiharto
In 2022, more and more people are using blockchain technology. Research by Huobi shows that there is an estimated 85 million web3 wallet users which is an increase of 6.3% from the previous year. From the activity of these wallets, there is a lot you can tell about an individual. Whether it’s data on customers or demographics such as net worth, gender, and location; interests such as art/fashion/music taste, recent purchases; or behaviour including times of day a customer is active or their chain preference. If this data is captured and used in the right way, it is incredibly valuable and can have revenue-boosting insights for commerce.
However, it is currently very hard for merchants to capture and use this data. Merchants are focused on manually figuring out how best to understand their web3 customer segments and analyze data from sources such as Dune to get basic insights. Doing this is inefficient and often has large overheads, leaving merchants with insights which are challenging to efficiently action with a clear ROI.
Additionally, from a user perspective, there are clear privacy concerns. Many users might not be aware that it is possible for businesses to gather information about them based on on-chain activity, even if they are pseudonymous. We’re seeing users react to the way their data is being captured online with Google finding that 9/10 customers only wish to have their data shared with organizations with their permission. Additionally, apps are taking action, such as major browsers stopping the use of cookies and organizations continue to try and find ways to collect user data with their consent in order to avoid violating data privacy laws like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). AddZest solves this dual-sided merchant and user problem.
AddZest is designed to help businesses get better insights into their customers while still protecting users’ privacy through a web3 cookie. Through using their no-code product recommendation widgets for their online store, merchants can create personalized customer experiences tailored to every individual. At the same time, users have control over their own data and can choose what information they want to share with these organizations.
Here is how AddZest will benefit users and organizations:
