Commerce isn’t what it used to be. These days, it seems that all customers need to do to find and eventually purchase a product they want or need is to ask for it. “Alexa,” millions of shoppers can be heard saying, “show me…”

While this constant connectivity offers plenty of opportunity to brands and retailers, it also presents a challenge. These companies need to make sure that consumers can easily find details on potential purchases — because if they don’t, consumers won’t be able to find their products on any of their devices — even if they’re from the future.

Just ask Ake. As you can see in the video below, he desperately needs to find a replacement Goupil controller after his faulty futuristic device dumped him in our time period — decades earlier than his own. Now, he needs to search through a jungle of inconsistent, inaccurate, or just plain bad product information, along with the help of his friend Julia, if he wants to return home.
