Jaywing plc announces launch of marketing tech powered by AI: Jaywing Intelligence

Today, Jaywing plc has announced the launch of a new marketing tech that uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Virtual Reality (VR) across a wide range of marketing applications.

Jaywing Intelligence will enable marketers to make much faster, fully informed commercial decisions through technology that harvests, processes and analyses data. It uses machine-learning to make automated real-time marketing decisions using advanced mathematical algorithms. Jaywing Intelligence also uses Virtual Reality for data visualisation to help bring complex analysis to life.

It is available now and already being used by more than 15 clients across a variety of sectors, including Sky, ITV, Anytime Fitness Australia and KPMG.

Jaywing cites wide-ranging applications for Jaywing Intelligence, such as driving real-time pricing changes in response to competitor pricing or an individual's price sensitivity. Other applications include intelligent approaches to lapsers, crisis PR, Pay Per Click advertising, social advertising, display advertising, attribution, influencer marketing and more.

Marketers will be able to access Jaywing Intelligence at a range of price points and functionality levels delivered as software, dashboards, a managed service or via an API. In addition, Jaywing will assist with implementation and integration with legacy systems and processes.

Martin Boddy, CEO, Jaywing plc, "I'm delighted that we are able to bring a set of genuine applications of Artificial Intelligence formally to the market, following the integration and further development of our existing technology with that of last year's Bloom acquisition.

"Artificial Intelligence is much vaunted and much discussed at present but with precious few delivering on its promise. We believe we are amongst the first to market in our field, delivering on our heritage in data science and collaborative approach to our deep specialist skills. Our tech is accessible to a range of potential clients across a range of applications, delivery mechanisms and price points.

"We are very much of the view that AI, and Jaywing Intelligence in particular, is a crucial enabler in the future of marketing that will lift our clients out of the complexities of execution, where there remains a significant data science skills gap that has to date hampered many taking advantage of the proliferation of data. Technologies such as Jaywing Intelligence, combined with their practical implementation, will allow our clients to refocus on creative and strategic thinking."

The Jaywing Intelligence product suite

Jaywing Intelligence is a suite of proprietary technology products, which collate owned, earned, open and paid data sources to create new data assets (Almanac), and uses mathematical algorithms to deliver unique insights about customers and the market (Whisper). This insight can then be used by automated marketing engines powered by AI (Decision).

Almanac

Almanac collects any combination of data that is held about your business, market, competitors and customers from owned, earned, open and paid data sources. Almanac processes and combines this data to create an optimised data set, which can then provide a single customer view across multiple channels and allow for powerful modelling.

Whisper

Whisper is a collection of mathematical algorithms, built on dynamic graph theory and graph centrality, developed in conjunction with the Universities of Oxford, Strathclyde and Leeds. It takes the Almanac data set and produces powerful, unique customer and market intelligence that can only be uncovered using Whisper.

Decision

Decision is a number of Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms that test, evolve and learn how to optimise marketing activity in real time. Decision data is fed back into Almanac which enables Jaywing Intelligence to optimise budget and marketing opportunities in real time to out-perform manual and automated marketing tools.
