How Fanatics and OpenAI streamline the fan experience

TL;DR

Fanatics uses OpenAI to help fans complete their game-day outfits with Shop the Look. Testing across roughly 30,000 MLB products showed 10% higher engagement.

Nauti's Take

For small teams, transferability is the first thing to test: can the recommendation engine create useful combinations outside a curated MLB catalog without overwhelming product data and inventory logic? The 10% engagement lift suggests better product discovery, but it does not prove higher revenue or a broadly reusable commerce workflow.
