DESCRIPTION :
SHORA is a startup project supported by Inria Startup Studio that addresses the biggest pain in e-commerce: turning visitors into buyers. Today, fewer than 3% of shoppers complete a purchase and most of the remaining 97% drop off because of UI friction. SHORA predicts how a website's interface influences conversion and recommends concrete improvements. We train our ML models on visual and structural elements from millions of websites, and they learn UI patterns that drive sales based on HCI principles. The project is entering a validation phase to deploy with early clients. Our goal is to move from prediction to proof by tracking real conversions. This will make us the first platform that bridges UI theory with proven conversion outcomes. We seek a business developer who can understand our product, build relationships with early clients, drive, retain, and grow sales during this validation phase.
