Decile has launched Luma, a conversational AI analyst designed specifically for ecommerce brands to interpret performance data, identify opportunities, and recommend actions. The tool combines ecommerce expertise with a proprietary data model to deliver insights that would typically require days or weeks of human analysis in seconds.
The importance of this development lies in addressing a critical challenge facing ecommerce operators: the proliferation of disconnected data sources and analytics tools that create fragmented insights without clear guidance. Brands increasingly struggle with managing multiple reporting platforms, analytics dashboards, apps, and advertising channels that don't integrate effectively or allow for brand-specific definitions. Luma consolidates these disparate data streams into a unified environment where teams can move directly from data to decisions.
Luma functions by generating brand-specific, multi-step analyses of real-time data in response to plain language inquiries. Unlike static charts and generic metrics, the AI analyst explains why performance shifts occur and provides specific recommendations for next steps, creating data-driven narratives that guide smarter decisions. Every result includes visible reasoning and data context to build user confidence in the insights provided.
The implications for the ecommerce industry are significant as AI extends deeper into business operations. Brands without dedicated data analysis teams can now access sophisticated insights that were previously unavailable or required extensive manual effort. Early users in private previews have reported immediate value, with one fashion and apparel brand noting that marketing channel owners can now conduct analyses quickly without specialized data skills.
For individual ecommerce operators, Luma represents a shift toward more accessible, efficient decision-making. The tool eliminates the need for manual reporting and data stitching while providing the contextual understanding typically associated with human analysts. This could lead to faster response times to market changes, more informed strategic decisions, and reduced reliance on technical specialists for routine analysis tasks.
Built directly into the Decile platform, Luma sits at the intersection of a customer data platform, analytics engine, and built-in AI analyst. This integration creates a comprehensive environment where teams can address even complex multi-step questions with clarity and direction. The technology's ability to transform disconnected data into actionable intelligence addresses a fundamental bottleneck in ecommerce growth strategies.
