Drift, the buyer experience and Conversational AI company, today announced an evolution of its buyer engagement platform, introducing three new products – Drift Engage, Site Concierge and Bionic Chatbots. These additions are a result of the company's continued innovation and investment in artificial intelligence (AI) and signals a new future for B2B marketing; a future where brands can deliver curated, personalized experiences to every unique buyer in real-time.
We believe buyers should have consumer-like control of their experience at every stage of their journey. Brands need to anticipate buyer needs and then deliver easy, personalized experiences to build trust and enduring relationships, said Matt Tippets, SVP of Product at Drift. AI makes this possible at scale and when done right, can make buyer journeys feel more human. Today's announcements were informed by the voice of our customers and influenced by leading market trends. We are introducing entirely new ways to create engaging customer experiences, one conversation at a time.
According to the 2023 State of AI in Marketing Report, 64% of marketers say AI is either very or critically important to their success in the next 12 months yet more than half (54%) of marketers report they are still learning AI and how to unlock its potential. As an early innovator in AI for marketing, Drift has a proven track record of helping brands deliver the right experience at every touchpoint of the buyer journey and is uniquely positioned to help lead the market through this next frontier.
"Drift is disrupting the category they created and now, they're helping transform the future of marketing with artificial intelligence," said Matt Mullin, Sr. Director of Global Marketing Operations and Campaign Strategy at Tenable. "Drift has been really efficient in helping us grow pipeline since day one, and is now helping us future-proof our business with the new products and updates they're delivering."
"We've seen positive impact across all stages of the buyer's journey from Drift. A big part of that success is owed to meaningful personalization, especially in today's competitive marketplace," said Steve Measelle, VP of Marketing Global Performance and Strategy at SAP Concur. "We've improved website conversion and sourced incremental leads and opportunities. We've accelerated the sales process, in some cases, to a near B2C pace. Drift has achieved most-loved status across our entire martech stack."
When Drift was founded and created the category of Conversational Marketing in 2015, only a small percentage of the journey could be personalized and chatbots were a best-in-class solution to reduce friction in the B2B buying process. As Drift continues to expand its footprint with proprietary AI, generative AI, deep integrations and enhanced conversational data, the company will continue its progress toward curating the entire customer experience. Today's announcements are a significant milestone in delivering on this product vision.
Site Concierge
Site Concierge is a dedicated space on businesses' websites that creates multi-faceted digital experiences unique to each site visitor to drive engagement, conversions and pipeline. By leveraging AI to garner a holistic understanding of who the site visitor is, what they care about, and where they are in their buying journey, Site Concierge moves beyond the chatbot, allowing site visitors to find the answers and tools they need when they need them. A collection of apps that will include a Meeting Scheduler, Content Recommendations, GPT search and more, Site Concierge customizes its recommendations, calls to action and playbook pathways to best serve each unique site visitor. The apps persist through their entire site experience – remembering who they are and what they care about – as an always-on, always available toolkit for buyers. This gives website visitors the personalized, always-on omnichannel experiences they expect, which in turn, generates quality pipeline for marketing teams.
Bionic Chatbots
Traditional chatbots served us well for many years but they can no longer keep pace with buyer expectations and sophistication. Rigid decision trees, inflexible journeys, time-consuming maintenance and security concerns have prompted new demand and new opportunities to engage buyers in more meaningful ways. Drift's Bionic Chatbots leverage generative AI to understand the business' own content – specifically and securely trained for each customer – to deliver more accurate and efficient conversations with less maintenance and management required from marketers. Bionic Chatbots will automatically sense sales intent and lead qualification to drive business results. This blending of demand generation processes and GPT conversations channels the power of generative AI to benefit buyers and brands.
Drift Engage
The majority of website traffic is labeled as anonymous, leaving companies to fly blind trying to generate pipeline from their website visitors. Drift Engage, powered by Lift AI, is the only solution that can automatically score the real-time intent of every website visitor and deliver a personalized experience based on that data, even if those visitors are 100% anonymous.
The platform uses machine learning (ML) to power segmentation and targeting for all playbooks, allowing brands to provide the right experiences for every site visitor and convert more high-intent website visitors into loyal customers. Features of Drift Engage include real-time intent scoring, real-time playbook targeting, CRM sync and audiences summary data. Learn more from today's partnership announcement here.
Drift will deliver a virtual keynote at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT today to elaborate on the company's vision for the future and to demo the product announced, and the benefits for current and prospective Drift customers. Register and attend here: drift.com/keynote.

Intellimize, the leading AI experience optimization platform, today announced their partnership and integration with Demandbase, the leader in AI-driven account-based go-to-market.
Shared customers of Intellimize and Demandbase can now use firmographic attributes to build custom audiences that deliver personalized experiences. For example, customers can target specific accounts, or groups of accounts based on company size, industry, revenue, and more, to show a dedicated experience on their website. This integration enables marketers to deliver dynamic website experiences across the buyer's journey, a critical element to account based marketing (ABM) program success.
Coupa, a SaaS company, is using the integration to deliver personalized landing pages to target accounts in specific industries and has seen great success. By breaking out their campaigns not only by industry, but also revenue tier, they're able to further tailor experiences to key accounts and deliver messages that resonate with each visitor.
We used the Intellimize integration with Demandbase to personalize pages on our website by industry and by revenue tier, and as a result we were able to boost conversions by an average of 8.4% (and for a certain industry it was a 227% boost in conversion rates!). We were also able to figure out which messages work best for which industry and which revenue tier, which is extremely valuable across all of our marketing efforts.
Ally Vandenherik, Senior Digital Marketing Manager, Coupa Software
This integration will not only enable users of both products to curate highly personalized experiences for target accounts, but will also allow them to ensure those experiences are consistent across all website properties, landing pages, and other content, better educating buyers across all points of their journey. Additionally, the integration will unlock significant upsell and cross sell opportunities for brands looking to create account-specific special offers, amplifying countless revenue opportunities.
"We are excited to partner with Intellimize, so our joint customers can create more meaningful experiences for their customers," remarked Michael Wilczak, chief strategy and development officer at Demandbase. "We're all about using data and AI to light up the buyer journey and remove friction for both the buyer and seller. Our partnership with Intellimize is a perfect fit for this vision."

Madison Logic, the leading global digital Account-Based Marketing (ABM) platform, today announced the launch of ABM Connected TV (ABM CTV), a new digital channel that harnesses the company's industry-leading data-driven approach to more precisely target and surround buyers wherever they are. By combining the precision and power of ABM with the reach and scale of television, B2B marketers drive more awareness and higher engagement from pipeline to revenue with ABM Connected TV as part of their multi-channel, account-based approach.
The B2B buying process has evolved over the last few years making it more difficult for marketers to engage target accounts. Purchase decisions for complex B2B solutions include more committee members, take more time, and are driven by more independent digital research. Gartner suggests sales reps only have 5% of a customer's time during their B2B buying journey, leaving it up to marketing teams to tell the solution story through content and messaging that speaks directly to the buying committee needs. As more buyers work from home and utilize digital channels for a self-driven buying experience, Connected TV (CTV)—which includes Smart TV's and other devices that allow brands to reach their audiences through internet targeting—helps surround key decision-makers with content and messaging.
"Buyers today are harder to reach than ever before; marketers can no longer risk focusing on individual channels to succeed," said Tom O'Regan, CEO of Madison Logic. "With superior targeting capabilities fueled by our industry-leading intent data, we empower marketers to identify in-market accounts, drive higher awareness, and ultimately maximize their media investment by engaging buyers through a unified approach that now adds CTV to their multi-channel ABM strategy. This is an exciting new chapter for Madison Logic as we continue to innovate and shape the future of B2B marketing."
Enterprise marketers leveraging CTV as part of a data-driven, multi-channel ABM strategy accelerate the buying journey from awareness to demand conversion by reaching accounts faster with multiple touchpoints. Madison Logic ABM Connected TV benefits include:
Enhanced Targeting: Directly target in-market account prospects, ensuring messaging is seen by the right audience on CTV.
Unified Activation: Amplify an existing multichannel ABM approach by adding CTV to surround prospects through the centralized ML Platform.
Clear Measurement: Track the performance of every dollar spent, linking CTV media investment to pipeline growth and revenue impact.
Madison Logic has made CTV an exciting and measurable part of our unified ABM marketing strategy, said Maggie Galster, Global Marketing Automation & Paid Media Manager at Schneider Electric.
"We can now seamlessly target prospects on CTV as part of our multi-channel ABM campaigns. The ability to target accounts at a granular level with tracking of engagement and performance on a single platform makes it easier to visualize the impact of our cross-channel ABM approach. We're seeing increased account engagement from the organizations we've targeted with CTV as part of our multi-channel campaign."
Madison Logic is the only ABM solution to unify the four primary B2B channels—content syndication, display advertising, social advertising with LinkedIn, and now CTV—into a centralized platform that enables enterprise B2B marketers to activate multi-channel ABM campaigns and achieve comprehensive visibility into program performance. Leveraging ML Insights, which combines three independent signals into a single intent score, marketers more easily determine which accounts to engage, the key personas within these accounts, and the content most likely to drive account engagement and pipeline impact. Through a more targeted data-driven, multi-channel ABM approach with Madison Logic, marketers report a 32% lift in engagement, a 28% faster sales cycle, and a 17% increase in pipeline.
About Madison Logic
The ML Platform, a global multi-channel ABM activation and measurement platform, enables enterprise organizations to leverage a proprietary combined data set to identify the accounts most likely to purchase, accelerate the customer journey, and shorten sales cycles to positively impact ROI.
