Overview

Dudu Platform - a personalization infrastructure that enables any developer to build comprehensive recommendation systems without machine learning expertise.

Core Concepts​

The Dudu Platform is built around these key concepts:

📊 Entity Catalog​

Entities are the items you want to recommend:

  • Retail/E-commerce: Products in your inventory
  • Media/Content: Articles, videos, or other content pieces
  • Any Industry: Any recommendable items with unique identifiers

🎯 Templates & Context​

Templates are prompts that instruct our AI models on what to do. They contain your business logic and intent. Templates must include placeholders for context variables.

Context provides the user-specific data that powers personalization:

  • Purchase history, browsing behavior, user demographics
  • Budget constraints, preferences, and real-time data
  • Any relevant information that helps understand user intent

🔑 API-First Architecture​

  • Secure API key authentication for all operations
  • RESTful endpoints for recommendations, feedback, and management
  • Language-agnostic integration with any tech stack

📈 Feedback Loop​

Track user interactions to continuously improve recommendations:

  • Positive/negative feedback on recommendations
  • Purchase tracking and conversion events
  • Custom events for your specific use case

How simplest it can be?​

Send templates, context, and entity catalog to get AI-powered recommendations:

{
  "template": "Recommend next product to customer. Previous purchases: {context}, Budget less than $100",
  "context": {
    "previous_purchases": ["iPhone 16 512Gb", "Rich Dad Poor Dad book"]
  },
  "catalog": [
    "8": {"product_name": "MacBook Pro", "price": 1999, "category": "electronics"},
    "4": {"product_name": "iPad Air", "price": 599, "category": "electronics"},
    "1": {"product_name": "iPhone 16", "price": 999, "category": "electronics"},
    "3": {"product_name": "AirPods Pro", "price": 249, "category": "electronics"},
    "5": {"product_name": "Apple Watch", "price": 399, "category": "electronics"},
    "6": {"product_name": "Magic Keyboard", "price": 149, "category": "electronics"},
    "9": {"product_name": "Magic Mouse", "price": 99, "category": "electronics"},
    "7": {"product_name": "Magic Trackpad", "price": 129, "category": "electronics"},
    "2": {"product_name": "Apple Pencil", "price": 129, "category": "electronics"},
    "10": {"product_name": "USB-C Charge Cable", "price": 19, "category": "accessories"},
  ],
}

And that's it. Integrate our API to your current data pipelines and start getting recommendations.
