We've launched skittles.ro

If you ever wonder what to do to help a creative team unleash the kids within, the answer is simple: give them a brief from Skittles, aka “The icon of unpredictability”. Let them drool for a moment over the prizes stacked into the shop’s window, then set them loose.

You’ll see. There’s nothing like a horde of kids ransacking a candy store.

You know kids, they love topping as much as they love a tough jawbreaker. So the natural question after seeing what others have done for Skittles was: how can we top this? Is there a better way to let people interact with a brand that uses a rainbow as its brand character?

Well of course there is, we’ve said: we’ll let them talk to it. So we’ve stacked an award winning Artificial Intelligence technology behind the rainbow, molded its personality after the brand’s persona and made it learn Romanian in less than one month.

We’ve considered 12 AI engines, improved them with several tens of thousands of code lines in AIML, wrote 44.000 dialogue lines and made some AI history in the process by pushing a little bit further the model and the mechanics of verbal interaction.
As far as we've searched, it's probably a first in the history of commercial communication. Worldwide.

So with no further introduction :), meet our Facebook interfaced, diurn cycle fitted, interaction packed little absurd universe. Here it comes: skittles.ro.
