Bengaluru and San Francisco-based firm, Whatfix has lately bought an AI-powered personalized engine, Airim. With this acquisition, Airim’s technology will be combined with Whatfix to enhance the firm’s digital adoption platform and strengthen its artificial intelligence (AI) store to offer personalized content to every user autonomously, thus, transforming Whatfix the industry’s foremost Digital Adoption Solution (DAS) to provide Autonomous Personalization.

Combined with Airim’s AI-powered personalized engine, Whatfix users can now expect hyper-personalized in-app guidance at their point of need, according to its press statement. 

“DAS’ use of artificial intelligence (AI) — a core component of digital optimization — can help correct the course. Analytics that include AI provided by DAS vendors enable sales operations to understand how sellers engage with the system. The digital adoption solution analyzes clickstreams, how long a step takes and where users get stuck or abandon the process completely. This kind of information gives administrators the ability to make corrective changes to help users complete tasks in processes. It also provides the ability to track improvements in usage,” said Melissa Hilbert, Senior Director Analyst at Whatfix, in a recently published Gartner report.
