Foxintelligence Enhances Ecommerce Insight Using AWS and Generative AI
Foxintelligence by NielsenIQ, the largest ecommerce measurement and consumer analytics company in Europe with around 5 million active online buyers tracked, uses Amazon SageMaker to build, train, and deploy its machine learning models and is exploring Amazon Bedrock to access foundation models, fine-tune them, and do prompt engineering, reducing time to market for generative AI innovation. As a company handling consumer personal data, Foxintelligence relies on AWS security features to comply with the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other regional regulations as it expands globally, with advice from the AWS engineering team on new compliance features.
Overview
Foxintelligence by NielsenIQ, the largest ecommerce measurement and consumer analytics company in Europe with around 5 million active online buyers tracked, uses Amazon SageMaker to build, train, and deploy its machine learning models and is exploring Amazon Bedrock to access foundation models, fine-tune them, and do prompt engineering, reducing time to market for generative AI innovation. As a company handling consumer personal data, Foxintelligence relies on AWS security features to comply with the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other regional regulations as it expands globally, with advice from the AWS engineering team on new compliance features.
The challenge
Foxintelligence has used machine learning in its data pipeline for years and needed to find the right solution at every phase of development to scale while maintaining cost, and, as it expands globally while handling consumers' personal data, needs to comply with the EU's GDPR and other regional data regulations.
The solution
Foxintelligence uses Amazon SageMaker to build, train and deploy its machine learning models and is exploring Amazon Bedrock to easily access foundation models, fine-tune them, do prompt engineering and quickly deploy generative AI applications. It relies on AWS security features to store and protect data, with advice from the AWS engineering team on new features to meet compliance requirements as regulation evolves.
Reported business value
Amazon Bedrock greatly reduces Foxintelligence's time to market for generative AI innovation by making it easy to access, fine-tune and prompt-engineer a range of foundation models with quick deployment after that.

Rakuten accelerates development with Claude Code
Rakuten, a large Japanese ecommerce company, uses Claude Code to automate coding tasks across its engineering teams, reducing time to market for new features from 24 days to 5 days and achieving 7 hours of sustained autonomous coding on a complex open-source refactoring project. Rakuten also deployed Claude Managed Agents across product, sales, marketing and finance, plugging into Slack and Teams for non-engineers to complete tasks.

Zalando built a Content Creation Copilot that uses OpenAI's GPT-4 Turbo, later migrated to GPT-4o, to auto-suggest product attributes from images during article onboarding. The content creation stage was largely a manual process — copywriters used a Content Creation Tool and performed their own QA — contributing about 25% of the overall content production timeline. The system combines a prompt generator, article masterdata, and a translation layer mapping GPT output to Zalando's internal attribute codes, achieving roughly 75% accuracy while enriching about 50,000 attributes per week.
