Talking point: Customers in financial services, retail and other sectors use Coveo’s AI to recommend and personalize content on their sites for users. Other Canadian publicly-traded companies like Shopify and Lightspeed that sell commerce technology have warned that softening consumer spending amid economic anxieties could affect them. But Coveo CEO Louis Têtu struck a sunnier note on an earnings call Monday. “We don’t anticipate much slowdown for these types of solutions that really can optimize existing commerce infrastructures,” he said.

The company is projecting up to $111.5 million in revenue for the fiscal year, with a loss of up to $33.5 million.
