Short answer

How can I send targeted messages to user segments with my AI?

Your agent pulls your existing audience lists and matches them against your notification templates to trigger sends. You get precise control over who receives what message through your established channels.

Targeted outcomes.

Where your messages land.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of segmenting and drafting.

SEGMENTATION

Identify specific groups

The agent scans your saved audiences to find the exact users you want to reach. You'll see a list of available segments ready for messaging.

CONTENT

Select message templates

Your agent looks up your pre-configured templates to ensure the right tone and format. This keeps your messaging consistent without manual drafting.

DELIVERY

Trigger the notification

Once you approve, the agent sends the message through your configured channels. This moves the message from a chat prompt to a real user inbox.

HUMAN

Review and approve

You stay in the loop. The AI presents the segment and the template for your final check before anything actually sends.
