1. Introduction

Knowing the intent of users searching the Internet provides the opportunity to serve the exact information they need and influence their decision. For example, if someone types the search phrase “price of black dress shoes”, we have a good sense of what their content expectations are as well as their intention. Okiano uses Machine and Deep learning to figure the intent of users and create keywords and Ads creative to meet these users' intent. This is how we automate the entire search advertisement task for eCommerce Digital Marketing and drive positive results to our retail customers.

Connecting Okiano to your Magento 2 store
Okiano integration with Magento 2 allows for your store data to be continuously updated on Okiano servers. This, in turn, ensures your Ads and search terms are always relevant and accurately represent your store.
