Through years of continuous research and accumulation, the Yijiupi Technology R&D Center has established a relatively comprehensive technical architecture system, including big data, artificial intelligence, DevOps, and complex business scheduling platforms based on mainstream open-source technologies and self-developed components, as well as relatively complete operations, security, and monitoring systems. Currently, some self-developed products have been SaaS-ified, empowering the entire FMCG industry chain. In recent years, Yijiupi has consistently increased R&D investment; in 2019, pure technology R&D investment exceeded 50 million RMB. Yijiupi is also continuing to strengthen the building of its engineering team, especially AI scientists, vigorously constructing technology platforms and business middle platforms that support complex front-end operations, making substantial investments in technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence, and enhancing technological innovation to provide new momentum for the high-quality development of the FMCG industry internet. In the field of artificial intelligence, the Yijiupi algorithm team is building AI-related technologies involving NLP, machine learning, knowledge graphs, etc. In trading, with search and recommendation as the core, it builds intelligent pricing and promotional automation platforms. In logistics and warehousing, with the goals of automated in-warehouse operations and intelligent logistics distribution (including distribution strategy, scheduling algorithms, route optimization, and intelligent order assignment), it constructs modern intelligent warehousing and logistics systems. Among them, WMS has been SaaS-ified and provides external services. In the supply chain, using data and algorithms, it achieves recommended purchasing and intelligent procurement.
