Quick Answer

RecoMelon supports different recommendation intents on Shopify PDPs: Shop Similar and Reveal™ for alternatives, Bundles™ for complementary complete looks, LiveGrid™ for content-led discovery and Dealbreaker™ Filters for shopper-controlled refinement.

Choose the recommendation type by shopper intent

Not every recommendation should answer the same question. RecoMelon supports multiple PDP discovery patterns depending on whether the shopper needs an alternative, a complement or more context.

Shop Similar

Use Shop Similar when the shopper likes the current product but may need a different version. VisualDNA™ finds visually aligned alternatives and Dealbreaker™ Filters can help change the attribute creating hesitation.

Reveal™

Reveal™ gives shoppers access to Shop Similar directly from the primary product image above the fold. It is an entry point for alternative discovery rather than a different matching model.

Bundles™ and complete looks

Use Bundles™ when the objective is to add complementary products around the item already creating intent. Sets can include multiple looks, commercial incentives and Bundle Rescue for individual product swaps.

LiveGrid™

Use LiveGrid™ when UGC or video can help shoppers understand products in context. Content can connect to exact products and wider recommendation discovery.

Dealbreaker™ Filters

Dealbreaker™ Filters sit inside recommendation experiences and let shoppers refine by category-specific attributes rather than restarting discovery.

Which should I use?

Many stores benefit from combining them. Reveal™ can handle early alternative discovery, a Shop Similar gallery can support deeper exploration, Bundles™ can grow the basket and LiveGrid™ can provide the visual proof that helps shoppers commit.
