Medical Supplierz Introduces AI-Powered Search to Enhance B2B Buyer-Supplier Matching

'AI is transforming medical procurement. Our new search tool makes matching buyers and suppliers smarter, faster, and more precise—unlocking new value across global healthcare markets.'— Bader Alajeel, CEO of Medical Supplierz
KUWAIT, KUWAIT, July 4, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Medical Supplierz, a digital B2B marketplace for the medical equipment industry, has announced plans to launch an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven search tool aimed at optimizing how healthcare buyers connect with global suppliers. The enhancement is part of the platform's broader efforts to improve transparency, efficiency, and responsiveness in the medical procurement process.
The AI-powered search feature is designed to help procurement teams quickly identify relevant products and suppliers from a global pool. By leveraging advanced algorithms, the tool can interpret user intent, filter for verified suppliers, and suggest matches based on a range of factors including location, compliance status, and past demand data. This marks a significant shift from traditional keyword-based search systems, which often fail to capture the complexity of medical procurement needs.
For buyers, the new system will offer a more intuitive experience, allowing them to locate appropriate products faster—whether they are sourcing surgical tools, diagnostic equipment, or hospital furnishings. In addition to keyword inputs, users can refine their search with contextual filters such as use case, region, certifications, and price range, increasing accuracy and saving valuable time.
Suppliers on the platform stand to benefit as well. The AI system increases visibility for qualified listings by automatically aligning them with buyer interest and search behavior. This ensures that even smaller or newer suppliers with compliant and competitive offerings can be surfaced to global buyers more effectively than before.
The introduction of AI also lays the groundwork for personalized procurement recommendations in the future. As the system gathers more interaction data, it will be able to anticipate trends, suggest procurement bundles, and even alert users to shortages or surpluses based on real-time activity.
Medical Supplierz sees the AI feature as a step toward smarter, data-driven healthcare supply chains. With medical procurement becoming increasingly complex and time-sensitive, the use of technology like AI can help streamline operations and reduce friction for both buyers and sellers.
About Medical Supplierz:
Medical Supplierz is a B2B marketplace designed for the global trade of medical equipment and supplies. The platform connects verified healthcare buyers with trusted manufacturers and distributors, offering digital tools to support secure, efficient, and scalable procurement across borders.

AI Shopping Is Here. Will Retailers Get Left Behind?

AI doesn't care about your beautiful website. Visit any fashion brand's homepage and you'll see all sorts of dynamic or interactive elements from image carousels to dropdown menus that are designed to catch shoppers' eyes and ease navigation. To the large language models that underlie ChatGPT and other generative AI, many of these features might as well not exist. They're often written in the programming language JavaScript, which for the moment at least most AI struggles to read. This giant blindspot didn't matter when generative AI was mostly used to write emails and cheat on homework. But a growing number of startups and tech giants are deploying this technology to help users shop — or even make the purchase themselves. ADVERTISEMENT 'A lot of your site might actually be invisible to an LLM from the jump,' said A.J. Ghergich, global vice president of Botify, an AI optimisation company that helps brands from Christian Louboutin to Levi's make sure their products are visible to and shoppable by AI. The vast majority of visitors to brands' websites are still human, but that's changing fast. US retailers saw a 1,200 percent jump in visits from generative AI sources between July 2024 and February 2025, according to Adobe Analytics. Salesforce predicts AI platforms and AI agents will drive $260 billion in global online sales this holiday season. Those agents, launched by AI players such as OpenAI and Perplexity, are capable of performing tasks on their own, including navigating to a retailer's site, adding an item to cart and completing the checkout process on behalf of a shopper. Google's recently introduced agent will automatically buy a product when it drops to a price the user sets. This form of shopping is very much in its infancy; the AI shopping agents available still tend to be clumsy. Long term, however, many technologists envision a future where much of the activity online is driven by AI, whether that's consumers discovering products or agents completing transactions. To prepare, businesses from retail behemoth Walmart to luxury fashion labels are reconsidering everything from how they design their websites to how they handle payments and advertise online as they try to catch the eye of AI and not just humans. 'It's in every single conversation I'm having right now,' said Caila Schwartz, director of consumer insights and strategy at Salesforce, which powers the e-commerce of a number of retailers, during a roundtable for press in June. 'It is what everyone wants to talk about, and everyone's trying to figure out and ask [about] and understand and build for.' From SEO to GEO and AEO As AI joins humans in shopping online, businesses are pivoting from SEO — search engine optimisation, or ensuring products show up at the top of a Google query — to generative engine optimisation (GEO) or answer engine optimisation (AEO), where catching the attention of an AI responding to a user's request is the goal. That's easier said than done, particularly since it's not always clear even to the AI companies themselves how their tools rank products, as Perplexity's chief executive, Aravind Srinivas, admitted to Fortune last year. AI platforms ingest vast amounts of data from across the internet to produce their results. ADVERTISEMENT Though there are indications of what attracts their notice. Products with rich, well-structured content attached tend to have an advantage, as do those that are the frequent subject of conversation and reviews online. 'Brands might want to invest more in developing robust customer-review programmes and using influencer marketing — even at the micro-influencer level — to generate more content and discussion that will then be picked up by the LLMs,' said Sky Canaves, a principal analyst at Emarketer focusing on fashion, beauty and luxury. Ghergich pointed out that brands should be diligent with their product feeds into programmes such as Google's Merchant Center, where retailers upload product data to ensure their items appear in Google's search and shopping results. These types of feeds are full of structured data including product names and descriptions meant to be picked up by machines so they can direct shoppers to the right items. One example from Google reads: Stride & Conquer: Original Google Men's Blue & Orange Power Shoes (Size 8). Ghergich said AI will often read this data before other sources such as the HTML on a brand's website. These feeds can also be vital for making sure the AI is pulling pricing data that's up to date, or as close as possible. As more consumers turn to AI and agents, however, it could change the very nature of online marketing, a scenario that would shake even Google's advertising empire. Tactics that work on humans, like promoted posts with flashy visuals, could be ineffective for catching AI's notice. It would force a redistribution of how retailers spend their ad budgets. Emarketer forecasts that spending on traditional search ads in the US will see slower growth in the years ahead, while a larger share of ad budgets will go towards AI search. OpenAI, whose CEO, Sam Altman, has voiced his distaste for ads in the past, has also acknowledged exploring ads on its platform as it looks for new revenue streams. 'The big challenge for brands with advertising is then how to show up in front of consumers when traditional ad formats are being circumvented by AI agents, when consumers are not looking at advertisements because agents are playing a bigger role,' said Canaves. Bots Are Good Now Retailers face another set of issues if consumers start turning to agents to handle purchases. On the one hand, agents could be great for reducing the friction that often causes consumers to abandon their carts. Rather than going through the checkout process themselves and stumbling over any annoyances, they just tell the agent to do it and off it goes. ADVERTISEMENT But most websites aren't designed for bots to make purchases — exactly the opposite, in fact. Bad actors have historically used bots to snatch up products from sneakers to concert tickets before other shoppers can buy them, frequently to flip them for a profit. For many retailers, they're a nuisance. 'A lot of time and effort has been spent to keep machines out,' said Rubail Birwadker, senior vice president and global head of growth at Visa. If a site has reason to believe a bot is behind a transaction — say it completes forms too fast — it could block it. The retailer doesn't make the sale, and the customer is left with a frustrating experience. Payment players are working to create methods that will allow verified agents to check out on behalf of a consumer without compromising security. In April, Visa launched a programme focused on enabling AI-driven shopping called Intelligent Commerce. It uses a mix of credential verification (similar to setting up Apple Pay) and biometrics to ensure shoppers are able to checkout while preventing opportunities for fraud. 'We are going out and working with these providers to say, 'Hey, we would like to … make it easy for you to know what's a good, white-list bot versus a non-whitelist bot,'' Birwadker said. Of course the bot has to make it to checkout. AI agents can stumble over other common elements in webpages, like login fields. It may be some time before all those issues are resolved and they can seamlessly complete any purchase. Consumers have to get on board as well. So far, few appear to be rushing to use agents for their shopping, though that could change. In March, Salesforce published the results of a global survey that polled different age groups on their interest in various use cases for AI agents. Interest in using agents to buy products rose with each subsequent generation, with 63 percent of Gen-Z respondents saying they were interested. Canaves of Emarketer pointed out that younger generations are already using AI regularly for school and work. Shopping with AI may not be their first impulse, but because the behaviour is already ingrained in their daily lives in other ways, it's spilling over into how they find and buy products. More consumers are starting their shopping journeys on AI platforms, too, and Schwartz of Salesforce noted that over time this could shape their expectations of the internet more broadly, the way Google and Amazon did. 'It just feels inevitable that we are going to see a much more consistent amount of commerce transactions originate and, ultimately, natively happen on these AI agentic platforms,' said Birwadker.
