Through the implementation of Google's AI technologies, Wayfair has already experienced enhancements in employee productivity and reductions in operational expenses.

"At Wayfair, we believe gen AI is the key to unlocking the next generation of retail experiences," said Fiona Tan, Chief Technology Officer at Wayfair. "With Google Cloud, we've been able to efficiently scale and enrich our product catalogs, enabling us to support a more seamless and engaging shopping experience for our customers."
