GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE EQUALISES LOW-DIGITAL MICROENTERPRISE CAPABILITY
Abstract
This study investigates whether a generative AI copilot can raise marketplace performance for micro and small enterprises and whether the gains concentrate among lower-ability sellers. Across a 12-week randomized controlled field trial, 240 Manado sellers were evenly split between a high-traffic mall and a residential area and assigned either to business-as-usual or to an AI copilot that generated optimized titles, persuasive descriptions, relevant tags, and photo guidance for their TikTok videos. We tracked the click-through rate, conversion rate, average order value, buyer rating, and an internal listing-quality index, and estimated causal effects using difference-in-differences models with seller-clustered standard errors. Compared with the control, the AI treatment increased click-through and conversion rates, raised the average order value by approximately IDR 19,000, improved ratings, and enhanced listing quality, with more potent effects in the residential segment. Mediation analysis showed that AI primarily improved listing quality; the resulting quality gains translated into higher conversion rates, and the indirect effect was statistically significant. The approach is scalable as a low-cost, platform-embedded marketing aid in urban markets.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
