Accio: The World's First Conversational AI Search Engine for B2B 80

Accio is the world's first conversational AI search engine in the B2B sector launched by Alibaba overseas. Accio proactively understands and meets users' procurement needs through AI technology, providing intelligent procurement solutions. Accio interacts with users through a dialog box, understands user needs, and filters based on information such as suppliers, customization scope, and price.

Accio supports multiple languages, including English, German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese, covering hundreds of millions of products, helping users achieve a one-stop experience from search to procurement.

Accio reshapes procurement capabilities through AI, providing overseas buyers, such as small and medium-sized business owners and entrepreneurs, with a one-stop artificial intelligence "procurement consultant" service.

Accio currently includes three modules: "AI Search", "AI Product Encyclopedia", and "End-to-End E-commerce Platform". It is also very simple to use. After logging into the Accio official website, users can write out their needs in the search box similar to a conversation with a large model, and then Accio will use AI to break down keywords and output based on the user's needs. In terms of output results, Accio does not simply output links, but uses AI to integrate product information into a "Wikipedia"-style page, which is more comprehensive and easier to understand.
