AI-Driven Integration with Optimizely Unifies Product Discovery Across Four eCommerce Sites

WOBURN, MASSACHUSETTS / ACCESS Newswire / April 16, 2025 / Bridgeline Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ:BLIN), a leader in AI-driven marketing technology, announced that a major North American distributor has selected HawkSearch to power search experiences across its portfolio of four eCommerce websites.

The multi-site engagement leverages HawkSearch's native Optimizely X-Connect integration and includes Concept Search, Smart Insight Management (SIM), and AI-powered personalization and recommendations. The distributor selected HawkSearch to unify the customer experience across its sites, improve relevance, and drive conversions through personalized content and intelligent merchandising strategies.
