Overview of the 'Happiness' App Launch

The app integrates digital Happiness Points, flyers, coupons, and other daily shopping benefits into a single platform. It now features a new AI-powered recipe suggestion function, leveraging AI technology from 'Delish Kitchen,' Every Inc.'s recipe video service with over 57,000 videos. This upgrade transforms the app into a real-time solution for answering the common question, 'What should I cook today?' during shopping.

Highlight Feature: AI-Powered Recipe Suggestions

Many shoppers struggle with questions like 'What can I make with ingredients I have at home?' or 'I can't think of a meal plan.' This feature addresses such everyday dilemmas with a conversational recipe recommendation system.

Simply enter keywords: Input ingredients or ideas that come to mind—such as 'tomato and egg' or 'chicken breast'—and the AI will recommend suitable recipes.

Refine through conversation: Add conditions like 'kid-friendly' or 'ready in under 15 minutes,' and the AI will interactively narrow down recipe options to match your needs.

Powered by Delish Kitchen's AI technology: Utilizing AI developed through Every Inc.'s 'Delish Kitchen' recipe video platform, the system understands natural language inputs to suggest optimal recipes. Users can watch recipe videos to view detailed cooking instructions.

This enables seamless shopping experiences—from planning meals before visiting the store to discovering new dishes using seasonal ingredients on-site.

Future Outlook

In today’s retail industry, enhancing customer experience through apps is increasingly vital for building brand loyalty. Beyond basic features like flyers and coupons, 'retail HUB' aims to fuse content and AI technologies cultivated through Every Inc.'s media business into retail apps. This vision goes beyond promotional tools to create apps that make shopping enjoyable and deliver personalized shopping experiences. The AI recipe suggestion feature marks the first step in this direction. Moving forward, 'retail HUB' will continue striving to be the central hub through which retailers deliver innovative shopping experiences to consumers.
