Lowe's

Mylow conversational home-improvement shopping assistant

Lowe's reported 3x higher conversion among shoppers who used Mylow

WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗Vendor ↗

Problem

Online shoppers often started with a repair or renovation problem rather than a product name. Conventional search required them to know what to look for.

Approach

Lowe's launched Mylow with OpenAI in March 2025. Customers described projects conversationally and received instructions with product recommendations. NVIDIA later described retrieval-augmented generation and NeMo Guardrails supporting the service.

Results

3xconversion rate among Mylow users versus non-users, attributed to Lowe's Q2 2026 earnings callCompany's own claim[3]

Takeaway

Lowe's reported higher conversion among Mylow users. That comparison did not establish how much of the difference the assistant caused.
