Hi HN, I’ve been building Pinpointed, a vertical AI for wine, beer and spirits retailers. It acts like a knowledgeable store clerk (“sommelier”) on the website, helping shoppers pick the right bottle by taste, food pairing, and budget. Early pilots show ~27% increase in average cart value and higher conversion on product pages.

Demo: https://pinpointed.dev Email: ian@pinpointed

Happy to share more implementation details or anonymised pilot data. Thanks!
