Hightouch | January 30, 2023
Hightouch, the industry leader in data activation, announced the availability of the Personalization API, a low-latency API intended to customize any customer experience. The Personalization API enables any system, including internal and external SaaS applications, to get cloud warehouse data with a response time of fewer than 30 milliseconds.
The feature integrates seamlessly with all prominent data warehouses and transactional SQL and NoSQL databases and supports any data structure (e.g., people, corporations, products). Now, all corporate users have access to client data in real time, whenever and wherever they need it.
Modern customers want, if not expect, individualized experiences with every company interaction. A recent Forrester survey revealed that 68% of consumers prefer to return to an unsatisfactory website or business. However, according to a recent Gartner report, as many as 63% of digital marketers still need to grasp the promise of customization technologies. Hightouch's Personalization API solves this pain point. It makes it simple for any business team to use the modeled data in the warehouse and transform it into captivating real-time customer experiences.
Businesses can handle a variety of new use cases using the personalization API, making it simpler than ever to create personalized client experiences, including:
Delivering in-app or web personalization like article recommendations, customized search results, or nearest store locations to drive conversions
Powering tailored marketing campaigns by enhancing marketing touchpoints with dynamic data points, such as product suggestions, through consumer interaction platforms
Optimizing product testing by providing decision and experimentation systems with consumer information, such as audience inclusion or exclusion
