Each product page in Aide now has a "Pairs well with" section. You can see every product Aide might suggest when a shopper asks what goes with this one, add your own picks, and hide automatic suggestions you don't want, so Aide only recommends add-ons you stand behind.
How it behaves
- What's listed: every paired product once, in the order Aide considers them: products you added ("Added by you"), then your Shopify Search & Discovery complementary products ("From Search & Discovery"), then what your customers often buy together ("Often bought together").
- In chat: Aide suggests up to three, the first ones that are on sale, published in its knowledge and not hidden. Your own picks always come first.
- Adding a product: search your catalogue from the "Add a product" picker. You can add up to 10 products per product, from the same store. A product can't be paired with itself.
- Removing: products you added can be removed. Search & Discovery and "often bought together" suggestions can't be removed, only hidden.
- Hiding: a hidden suggestion stays in the list, marked "Hidden", and Aide never suggests it. Show it again at any time.
- Nightly updates: "often bought together" is recalculated every night from your orders. Your added products and hidden suggestions are kept; a hidden product stays hidden if it comes back.
- Drafts and archived products you added stay in the list with their status so you can remove them, but Aide doesn't suggest them until they're on sale again.
- Added and also automatic: a product you added that is also a Search & Discovery or "often bought together" pick shows once, as yours. Remove it and the automatic suggestion returns.
