Why is Google experimenting with Shoploop?

Online shopping seems a fun experience, but it is not for severe buyers because of its limitations. You can not touch or feel the product while purchasing online. Usually, you are not sure what you see is what you will get. How the product looks physically and what it will do when you use it. To ensure the aspects, you have to find the reviews or opinions of the users who have already bought and used it. After satisfaction, by reading the reviews, you decide to buy and start searching for the website to buy it. To reduce all this hectic exercise, Google launched its video-based shopping app with the name Shoploop.

Google’s research and development laboratories wing at Area 120 designed and launched this shopping app. They planned and developed it as a one-stop solution to product discovery and searching for the final purchasing decision. It is not a new idea, as Flipkart has launched its E-commerce app, 2GUD, early this July. 2GUD is a video-based social app that provides a platform for the influencer to sell its products through entertaining videos.

How Shoploop works?

Shoploop provides the influencer or the sellers a platform to sell their products. At the same time, it helps the purchaser to choose from hundreds of products. It contains short videos, not longer than 90 seconds. It works and helps you in three ways.

  • The giant search helps you find the product you want from hundreds of products in an entertaining way. When you find the desired one or the one close to your need, it plays short videos related to that product. Watching the videos is an interactive way rather than scrolling through images like other e-commerce sites. These videos illustrate the product and its usage. When you find the desired one, then you move to the next step.
  • While watching short videos, you can read the real reviews of different users who bought and used that product. It gives you the feel of the product as if you are shopping in a physical store. Instantly you can know the cons and pros of that product. You can know about the packing, quality, usage, and effects of using by the real users in real-time. It gives you complete knowledge to decide whether to purchase it or not. When you choose to buy it, then you move to the third step.
  • Once you decide the product suitable for you, you can save it for later purchase or go to the merchant’s website for purchase. You don’t need to search for websites selling that product. Shoploop gives you a platform to explore, get reviews, and buy at the same place. You can share that product videos with your friends and family while staying in Shoploop. You can follow the sellers to get updates for new arrivals.

Wrap up

Influencers and creators, most of the time, didn’t mention it is personal user experience, or they are promoting the product. Review and Promotion are entirely different. When they have separate platforms like this, People who need or follow the particular influencer can utilize the product if they need it. Since Shoploop is an experimental program, we can’t predict the future of the developments. It purely depends on popularity. Google recently launched Pinterest like platform-Keen.
