人工智能(AI)是21世纪最大的突破之一。从将公司定位为全球舞台上的强大参与者，到探索组织所在的未知金矿，人工智能为企业带来了潜力和机会，使它们走在数字化时代的前沿。在过去的几十年里，人工智能的趋势出现了，并完全颠覆了全球无数的行业。从保护企业免受网络风险的人工智能驱动决策，到彻底改变销售和客户体验的智能机器人，企业现在可以利用的众多技术能力是不可逾越的。但几年前情况并非如此，因为人工智能的潜力经常被忽视。大流行一袭来，企业就转向创新，以在2020年残酷的时代中蓬勃发展，再加上此后的市场呈指数级下滑。无论是提高生产力，优化组织功能，简化工作周期和流程，还是交付新产品和解决方案，每个组织采用人工智能的速度都以前所未有的速度激增，不断发展和突破性的解决方案不断出现。预计到2023年，人工智能将继续主导全球市场，并以更智能、更高效的解决方案取代过时的做法。5家初创公司将自己定位为这场革命的关键参与者:2020年，伊多·维森伯格(首席执行官)和埃兰·弗里辛格(首席技术官)共同创立了Voyantis，因为他们都注意到了营销和增长团队的痛苦。由于缺乏研发资源，组织无法增长并做出明智的决策，这使得分析和利用公司自有数据来做出明智和时间敏感的决策以及激活增长变得困难。 The goal of Voyantis is to transform the way online businesses acquire and retain customers of the highest value, with superior predictive AI solutions and insights from thousands of data points to efficiently achieve exponential profitability by transitioning to LTV-based growth.
