Tagalys was founded by Antony and Palani after realizing the limitations of e-commerce platforms in determining what products to display to online store visitors. Antony had previously resigned from his job to start an online retail business, which struggled. However, it provided insights into challenges in online retail. This experience, along with Palani's technical expertise, led them to create an intelligent engine that uses analytics and prediction models to help online stores effectively merchandise products for visitors. Their goal is to become the world's best merchandising engine for online retail through collaboration with customers.
4. About us
Tagalys was built on the learnings of building & scaling an online store. We
were not very successful as retailers, but we learnt a lot about online retail –
the challenges, costs & pain points.
In 2011, Antony resigned from his management consulting job at Deloitte in
New York to embark on his entrepreneurial journey as an online retailer. Due
to his management consulting background, he sought technology services
from Palani (PC), who had his own firm serving hundreds of customers across
verticals.
During this venture, both Antony & PC realized that the e-commerce
platforms had no clue what products to display to visitors. Antony worked
with PC & team, writing the code to start collecting analytics and building
prediction models to determine what products to show visitors.
Fortunate or not, this venture hit the graveyard of startups, for Tagalys to be
born. Palani joined Antony and they worked to build an intelligent engine that
learns visitor interest to merchandise online stores effectively.
