Lowe's
Mylow conversational home-improvement shopping assistant
Lowe's reported 3x higher conversion among shoppers who used Mylow
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
Takeaway
Lowe's reported higher conversion among Mylow users. That comparison did not establish how much of the difference the assistant caused.
