LTK is bringing AI into shopping discovery with the launch of LTK AI, a chatbot built into its app that helps users figure out what to wear, style, pack, gift, or buy next by pulling from creator recommendations already on the platform. Rather than acting like a broad search engine, the tool surfaces real outfits, reviews, routines, recipes, and product picks from verified creators, giving shoppers a more conversational way to browse through trusted content.

The chatbot is trained on more than a decade of creator content, giving it a recommendation base shaped by real product use rather than scraped web answers.
That could make the experience feel more like a shopping conversation than a search query. For fashion, beauty, and lifestyle retail, it also signals where commerce may be headed next: AI tools that do not replace creators but make their influence easier to search for, filter, and shop for…
