It would be great to know which algorithms are being used. Hard to know how to evaluate AI claims without that...

Hi! I spoke to our engineers, they said: "The concept is multi-armed bandit experiment. We are developing our own, unique algorithms, though."

Good to know, thanks! I'm a bit skeptical of the words "their own, unique algorithms", given the quality and pace of research in machine learning and deep learning, but that may just be my open-source bias...

I am not sure which part of the demo is AI driven... and how its different from something like optimizely.

It sounds like its optimizing the variations over time for an objective. Isn't it what optimizely does too? Here, instead of webpages it is a drip campaign.

Hi! It's a little bit different than Optimizely, similar to Google Analytics Content Experiments - the difference is in the certainty of improvement. I spoke to our engineers, they said: "The concept is multi-armed bandit experiment. We are developing our own, unique algorithms, though."

This looks like multi-armed bandit approach (per email) + testing on timing of the email. Clever.

Thank you!

Is it multi-armed bandit type of testing?
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by Viktor_Egri on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @12:41PM (#12122788)
I'm really sorry to say that but I will be able to answer your question a little bit later after discussing it with the real techies. But I'll answer your question, probably tomorrow!

K-armed bandit algo?

To you as well: I'm really sorry to say that but I will be able to answer your question a little bit later after discussing it with the real techies (our engineering team). But I'll answer your question, probably tomorrow!

This type of tech being used by politicians is kind of scary if you think about it.
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by Viktor_Egri on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @12:36PM (#12122726)
Well, you're right. Although we'd like to help companies to increase their income. :S
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by josh_carterPDX on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @11:45AM (#12122398)
Really interesting. I signed up. Can't wait to play with it.
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by Viktor_Egri on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @12:41PM (#12122792)
Thank you very much! Hope you'll find it useful when we release it!
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by vargalas on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @04:15PM (#12124520)
It sounds really promising! Any plans for the release date?
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by Viktor_Egri on Wednesday July 20, 2016 @05:29AM (#12127764)
Hi! It will be testable in early Autumn. For some people maybe earlier. :)
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by hammock on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @03:19PM (#12124111)
What email platforms does this integrate with, e.g. Marketo, Salesforce, Silverpop etc?
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by Viktor_Egri on Wednesday July 20, 2016 @05:31AM (#12127770)
During the early stage, it will be usable only in our standalone MA system. Later on, it will depend on our users' needs.

Rock n roll. when do you plan to launch it?

The title is misleading: 30k leads are not the result of the AI optimization, they are the input. It should be From 32% to 35% conversion rate with A.I. driven drip campaign optimization
Re:Automizy: A.I. for automated drip campaign optimization [... by dang on Tuesday July 19, 2016 @01:32PM (#12123250)
We changed the title from "From 0 to 30k leads with A.I. driven drip campaign optimization".

Thanks for the help!

You are completely right, thanks for the feedback!
