Beyond Two-Year Waits: The Three-Week Path to Personalization

In the world of e-commerce, personalization has become the holy grail - but also the impossible dream. While tech giants like Amazon and Netflix showcase the power of showing the right content to the right user, most companies face a harsh reality: two years of development, millions in investment, and no guarantee of success.

Albatross is rewriting this story. By focusing on real-time user behavior instead of historical data, they've compressed what was once a multi-year journey into a three-week sprint. Here's how they do it.
