Insite AI lives entirely on the big business side of the fence, offering AI-driven tools for consumer product category management, pricing, and trade promotions. They announced their own $19 million Series A last week. Their website is blissfully static.
Kyra bridges the gaps between small and big business by helping individual creators build TikTok content and set up partnerships. At least, that’s what I took away from their headache-inducing website. What’s more clear is they just raised a $15 million Series A to do more of it.
We humans will pay a lot for a good time and a cutting-edge experience, as Meta well knows. So, the company that brought the world’s faces to Facebook, wants to out-pixel itself by getting more precise coordinates of every smile, fret and frown you can emote. This with their new $1,500 Meta Quest Pro headset that has its cameras facing you. All to “personalize your [virtual] experience” – a.k.a. track your every emotion and eye movement, and presumably, predict what you’ll buy better than ever before.
It barely feels like news when industry giants add AI features, since that’s what they’re expected to do. But lots of people use their products, so their announcements are probably of higher interest than most. With that in mind, let’s note that Adobe has just announced general availability of agents for audience creation, journey orchestration, experimentation, journey insights, website optimization and agent support.
