AI Is Cannibalizing Industries, Breaker Redefines Distribution in the Inbox

As AI cannibalizes industries , distribution has become the new competitive frontier. Breaker's TruSend™ technology redefines email marketing, offering a hyper-targeted approach that cuts through AI-generated noise and delivers measurable ROI for businesses needing to reach their audiences effectively.

AUSTIN, Texas, Nov. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AI is cannibalizing entire industries. From SEO to content creation, AI models are now feeding on their own output, leading to what data scientists call "model collapse", a spiral of declining quality, trust, and relevance. This self-feeding loop has turned the inbox into a wasteland, where AI-generated spam and artificial personalization have created a deep-seated trust crisis.

With 9.8 billion emails sent daily in the U.S. alone, the inbox is the largest and most valuable marketing channel, yet 59% of Americans report that most emails they receive are useless. ^(1,2) As recipients develop pattern recognition to reject both genuine and artificial outreach, businesses are losing their most direct line to customers. The problem isn't just volume; it's the erosion of trust fueled by irrelevant, AI-generated noise.

"AI has created a paradox: mass personalization is trivially easy, but trust erosion has made it less effective than ever," states Ben Billups, Founder & CEO of Breaker. "The narrative in the tech space is that building products is becoming so commoditized that distribution is more important than ever. We built a distribution engine to solve that."

The Cannibalization of Digital Trust

AI is everywhere. In 2024, 78% of organizations reported using it—a jump from 55% the year before. But as AI proliferates, it redefines the nature of trust in online communication. ⁽³⁾ What once relied on human-driven relevance and relationship is now threatened by algorithms replicating and amplifying sameness at scale. Recipients, inundated with nearly indistinguishable—and often irrelevant—messages, increasingly tune out, undermining the direct connection brands once had with their audience. The challenge isn't simply an overabundance of messages, but the erosion of authenticity and the growing skepticism around digital interactions. This shifting landscape demands not only smarter distribution, but also a renewed commitment to genuine value and ethical engagement in every send.

The problem isn't just volume, it's relevance. Traditional "spray-and-pray" campaigns treat every subscriber the same, resulting in generic content that damages brand reputation. In this environment, businesses with superior distribution strategies can outcompete even those with similar products. It's no longer enough to just have a product; you must own the distribution.

"With AI, the barrier to creating a web app is lower than ever. You can make products similar to ten others and still win if you have distribution," explains Billups. "Our focus is on making that distribution intelligent. We analyze subscriber behavior, content relevance, and engagement to deliver unmatched performance."

Breaker's TruSend™ Advantage

Breaker is redefining email marketing by focusing on smarter distribution rather than just volume. TruSend™ technology is designed to deliver performance in an AI-saturated world by ensuring every message is hyper-relevant.

• Smarter Targeting: Breaker's algorithms analyze subscriber behavior and content relevance to deliver personalized campaigns that cut through the noise, rather than adding to it.
• High Click-Through Rate: Breaker consistently delivers leading click-through rates, above the industry's typical 2% to 5% range for general marketing emails. ^(4,5) This means Breaker clients see above-average engagement compared to standard platforms.
• Future-Proofing Email: While the inbox may evolve with AI-powered tools like Gemini, Breaker is preparing by focusing on smarter targeting and adapting to changes in user behavior.
• Measurable ROI: Breaker moves beyond vanity metrics. The platform focuses on clicks, web traffic, and sales, providing clear, reliable indicators of performance.

"Clicks have always been more valuable than opens, and they are a more reliable figure," notes Billups. Our platform is built to drive real engagement—clicks, replies, and ultimately, sales."

Email's Resilience in the Age of AI Noise

As technology becomes easier to build, distribution becomes the differentiator. Breaker is developing the engine for this new reality, ensuring businesses can reach their ideal audience with precision and trust. By prioritizing compliance and data, they protect its platform from misuse, safeguarding its clients and their customers. Breaker is proving that email's future lies not in sending more messages, but in sending smarter ones. It's a direct challenge to an industry that has become bloated with ineffective, AI-generated noise.

"If email was going to die, it would have died because of Facebook ads and Google Search. The fact that it's bigger than ever shows its resilience," says Billups. "The next big thing is what we're creating: an algorithm for targeting better emails and better content. That's how you win."
