- Unified customer profiles and stitching interactions across web, social, mobile, email, and offline touchpoints.
- Real-time behavioral analytics, revealing where friction happens and enabling proactive corrections.
- Automation and personalization, delivering relevant messaging through behavioral triggers.
- AI-powered predictions and orchestration, forecasting next moves and optimizing journey flows.
