Understanding customers’ individual needs and preferences has never been more critical for businesses striving to stay ahead in the competitive market. Marketing personalization is no longer nice to have. It’s a must-have for brands looking to optimize conversions and build customer loyalty. With advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), marketers now have a powerful arsenal of AI personalization tools at their disposal to deliver tailored online experiences.
Five AI personalization tools digital marketers should have on their radar
AI personalization involves using advanced computer technologies and large language models to create personalized experiences for customers or prospects at scale.

What is AI personalization?
AI personalization uses customer data including demographics, browsing behavior, purchase history, and social media interactions to better understand customer needs and preferences. Brands use insights across the digital customer journey to optimize digital marketing content, product recommendations, segment marketing, and online shopping experiences.
How is AI used for personalization?
AI personalization helps brands scale their creative efforts and strategy more efficiently. It can pick up on customer behavior patterns more quickly and effectively than humans can, often processing billions of data points in a few milliseconds. AI, particularly Generative AI, can instantly create on-brand copy, images, video, audio, and more, based on prompts. This gives brands the ability to enhance their digital marketing personalization efforts using content tailored specifically for the marketing segments and digital channels to which brands cater.
When brands achieve marketing personalization in a scalable and sustainable manner, brands enhance conversions, customer loyalty, and ROI. According to research from Twilio, 56% of consumers say they will become repeat buyers after a personalized experience. 92% of businesses are using AI-driven personalization to drive growth.
How is AI used in personalized shopping?
AI is used to personalize the online shopping experience across every stage of the customer journey. Examples include AI-optimized messaging, AI-powered chatbot marketing, open time email campaigns, journey orchestration, product recommendations, and personalized website experiences.
To personalize the online shopping experience, AI not only creates personalized content for various customer segments and channels, but also identifies which customer segment is best for each customer based on their browsing behavior and other data. AI auto-personalization quickly analyzes visitor data to group customers into the correct segments. Once the AI identifies the ideal segments, it serves up the right content to the right customer. This encourages optimal engagement and conversions.
What is an example of AI personalization?
AI-powered product recommendations are a prime example of AI personalization. Tailored product recommendations shoppers find in emails or across e-commerce websites are more accurate and engaging than ever before thanks to complex machine learning algorithms that leverage customer insights to generate personalized product recommendations in real time. These product recommendations are even more effective when paired with AI-optimized messaging to further inspire conversions.
Netflix has perfected the AI-powered product recommendation with the Netflix Recommendation Engine (NRE). It uses algorithms to analyze each user’s viewing history to generate personalized movie and TV show recommendations based on their preferences.
Get personal with AI personalization tools
AI-powered personalization tools offer opportunities for businesses to elevate their marketing strategies and drive meaningful connections with their audience. From groundbreaking language generation platforms to predictive modeling tools, each solution brings unique capabilities to the table, empowering marketers to unlock new levels of engagement and revenue growth. With data privacy concerns on the rise, it’s important that brands approach AI personalization with the utmost transparency.
So, whether you’re a retailer, a financial service provider, or a travel brand, embracing AI personalization tools is the key to staying ahead of the curve and delivering exceptional customer experiences.
