EqualLevel delivers bottom line savings through ease-of-use and real-time search combined with advanced machine learning.
EqualLevel Savings Advisor (ELSA)
The EqualLevel Savings Advisor (ELSA) utilizes sophisticated artificial intelligence to optimize the shopping experience throughout the entire marketplace.
Across the home page, search results, and item details, ELSA works to show shoppers the best value options for the items they are purchasing.
Cart Optimization
EqualLevel’s Cart Optimization tool is powered by ELSA. Cart Optimization acts as a final safeguard in the checkout process to ensure the lowest prices are in a shopper’s cart. On the Cart Optimization page, ELSA technology determines exact matches or substitutes for the items being purchased and identifies savings that would otherwise be missed. Powered by artificial intelligence, ELSA is able to constantly learn and improve to make even better recommendations
How ELSA Helps Buyers
ELSA determines the optimal cartby identifying the lowest priced alternatives considering additional factors such as shipping fees.
ELSA shows all alternatives for items in the shopper’s cart. This includes exact matches from different suppliers as well as substitute items from different brands.
ELSA offers the ability to comparison shop punchout items. Even when items in the cart are brought back from a punchout supplier, ELSA can identify alternatives. This allows shoppers to view information for each alternative item.
How ELSA Helps Administrators
Reporting: Reports are available for each order and requisition placed when the shopper has gone through cart optimization.
Compliance: ELSA functions as a “3-bids-and-a-buy” record by displaying two alternatives that were shown to the shopper during cart optimization and any notes entered by the shopper.
ELSA identifies whether or not the shopper purchased the item that was suggested by ELSA.
