"Treating customers as the individuals they are – whether they're on a website, receiving an email, in a store or branch, or in an app – is paramount to effective marketing and business success," said Evergage CEO Karl Wirth. "With Evergage's deep behavioral tracking, full customer data platform and machine-learning algorithms, we can interpret and act on customer activity from current and previous sessions and combine it with attribute data – delivering relevant experiences to each visitor in 1/20th the time it takes to blink an eye.
