reAlpha Tech Corp. (AIRE) announced the launch of AiChat Pte. Ltd.’s new conversational commerce and AI ticketing platform on April 30 2026. The solution plugs directly into Shopify, allowing e‑commerce brands to manage product discovery, customer interaction, transactions, and post‑purchase support within a single conversational interface that syncs real‑time inventory and order data to messaging channels.
The platform’s core feature is an AI‑assisted co‑pilot that surfaces product recommendations during live chats, driving cross‑sell and upsell opportunities for merchants. By keeping shoppers inside messaging apps, the integration aims to lift conversion rates—industry studies show a 23% higher overall conversion for sites that use conversational AI—and reduce friction in the purchase journey.
reAlpha’s expansion into conversational commerce follows its July 2024 acquisition of AiChat, a Singapore‑based AI‑customer‑experience firm. While the company’s Q1 2026 revenue fell 9% to $0.8 million from $0.9 million in Q1 2025, the Technology Services segment—largely powered by AiChat—showed growth, offsetting headwinds in the core real‑estate business. The launch signals a strategic pivot toward diversified AI‑driven services that can be monetized across multiple consumer‑facing verticals.
CEO Mike Logozzo has emphasized that reAlpha’s strategy is to build a leading consumer‑aligned, AI‑driven real‑estate platform by integrating acquired businesses. CTO Vijay Rathna added, "We believe AI is fundamentally changing how businesses engage with customers, shifting interactions from fragmented touchpoints to continuous, conversation‑driven experiences." These remarks underscore the company’s confidence that the new platform will strengthen its technology moat and open new revenue streams.
The launch also coincides with a 1‑for‑25 reverse stock split effective April 30 2026, a corporate action taken to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement. The move reflects the company’s focus on long‑term growth and capital structure management while it expands its AI portfolio.
Overall, the AiChat launch positions reAlpha as a competitive player in the rapidly growing conversational commerce market, which is projected to grow from $9.5 billion in 2025 to $41.34 billion by 2035. The new platform is expected to accelerate revenue diversification and enhance gross margins through subscription‑based services and higher‑margin AI solutions.
