How AI Makes Gift-Giving Smarter
Gift-giving just got a major upgrade with artificial intelligence. Wishr's AI-powered features transform how you find the perfect presents by learning from your preferences and understanding what makes each gift truly special.
What Makes AI Gift Recommendations Different
Traditional gift shopping relies on guesswork and generic suggestions. Our AI changes that by analyzing your existing wishlists to understand your personal style and preferences. It then uses this knowledge to suggest gifts for others that match your taste and the recipient's needs.
Smart Learning from Your Wishlists
The AI examines your saved items to understand:
- Your style preferences - What types of products you gravitate toward
- Price ranges - Your typical spending patterns
- Brand preferences - Which companies you trust and like
- Category interests - What kinds of items excite you
Context-Aware Suggestions
Unlike basic recommendation engines, our AI considers multiple factors:
- The recipient's age - Ensures age-appropriate suggestions
- Their interests - Matches gifts to their hobbies and passions
- Your relationship - Different gifts for friends vs. family vs. partners
- The occasion - Birthday gifts differ from holiday presents
- Your budget - All suggestions fit within your specified price range
How to Use AI Features
Getting started with AI recommendations is simple:
1. Enable AI Features
Look for "AI Gift Recommendations" in your app menu or tap the AI button on any wishlist. You'll see a privacy notice explaining how AI works - choose to enable it.
2. Choose a Wishlist (Optional)
Pick one of your existing wishlists to help the AI understand your style. The more items in your wishlists, the better the AI understands your preferences.
3. Fill Out the Form
Tell the AI about the person you're buying for:
- Their age - Helps suggest age-appropriate gifts
- Their interests - What they like (sports, music, cooking, etc.)
- Your relationship - Friend, family, partner, colleague
- The occasion - Birthday, holiday, graduation, etc.
- Your budget - Set minimum and maximum price ranges
- How many suggestions - Choose 5-10 gift ideas
4. Get Personalized Results
Receive thoughtful gift suggestions with:
- Explained reasoning - See why the AI thinks each gift is perfect
- Price ranges for each suggestion
- Categories to help you organize them
- Confidence ratings - How sure the AI is about each suggestion
What You Can Do With Results
For each suggestion, you can:
- Buy now - Tap to go directly to purchase
- Add to Wishr - Save the suggestion to your app
- Save to wishlist - Add it to one of your wishlists
- Share - Send suggestions to friends or family
- See more details - Expand to read the full reasoning
For all results, you can:
- Filter by category - Show only electronics, books, etc.
- Sort by confidence - See the most recommended gifts first
- Sort by price - Organize from cheapest to most expensive
- Share all - Send the whole list to someone
Privacy-First Approach
Your privacy matters to us. The AI only sees:
- Information you choose to share
- Your wishlist items (to understand your taste)
- The details you enter about the gift recipient
The AI never sees:
- Your personal information or account details
- Other people's private data
- Anything you don't explicitly share
You're always in control - turn AI features on or off anytime in settings.
Tips for Better Results
To get the best AI suggestions:
- Be specific about interests - "rock climbing" is better than "sports"
- Include the occasion - Birthday gifts are different from holiday gifts
- Set realistic budgets - AI works better with clear price ranges
- Use your wishlists - The more items, the better AI understands your taste
- Try different combinations - Experiment with different interests and occasions
