“Customer-driven brands are eager for simple, low-risk ways to seize the power of generative AI for content generation. We congratulate our customers for their innovative practices in leveraging our best-of-breed platform to rapidly generate highly effective, personalized marketing messages that increase consumer engagement and loyalty across a variety of channels,” explained Assaf Baciu, President and Co-founder, Persado.
Persado Motivation AI is a class of enterprise GenAI proven to help brands drive engagement and conversion. The platform uses advanced machine learning, natural language processing (NLP), and deep learning transformer models to understand copy intent and create brand-compliant messages that motivate individuals to take action. Unlike other large language models (LLMs), which pull and learn from the wide internet, Persado AI is trained on a specialized dataset of interaction and transaction data from 1.2 billion consumers that measures and refines language, emotional response, and engagement.
“Many Persado customers overall are off to an award-worthy start in applying AI for marketing content generation in 2024. We are also proud of our customers recognized for innovation earlier this year in the Digiday Europe Awards, which centered on tech innovations, brand partnerships and collaborations, as well as creating compelling narratives. UK-based bank NatWest was shortlisted for Best Use of Technology and longstanding Persado customer Vodafone Italy was shortlisted for Best Use of AI,” added Mr. Baciu.
