Google Pay Launches AI-Powered Fashion Shopping Feature in India Pilot
Google Pay has launched a pilot AI-powered shopping feature in India, integrating fashion discovery within its payments app. Limited to select users, the 'Discover Shop' offers personalized product recommendations from over 60 billion listings, visual search to find similar styles, and an AI virtual try-on tool allowing users to preview clothing on themselves. The feature also includes curated content and YouTube videos, leveraging Google’s Shopping Graph and user activity data with consent. Google plans to refine the experience based on user feedback before wider rollout.
