Personalyse AI

Accurate, personal demographics

Personalyse AI comprises a team of AI engineers and data scientists who have built a proprietary AI retail marketing platform called Topic DNA. It profiles a customer’s behaviour, personality type and personal preferences ‘non-invasively’. It is thought to deliver the same accuracy as a 60-minute written psychometric test (~80%), only without asking said customer to do a test. This kind of profiling technology takes its cue from persistent web technologies which "follow" customers around the web, only with automation to make judgements and decisions faster.

They also have software which, in similar fashion to the concept of the ‘social intelligence graph’, uses AI in real-time to detect a customer’s social footprint and social media activity, tying together all the public data with machine learning to create accuracy demography for some of the biggest retailers, marketing agencies and others.
