Capabilities

Synthetic customers

How will your key segments respond to a new product, message, or pricing change? Traditional interviews and surveys take weeks. Synthetic customers are AI-modeled representations of your customer segments – grounded in real behavioral and attitudinal data – so you can run simulated interviews, focus groups, and surveys on demand. Research stays interactive as new questions emerge, shortening learning cycles and reducing time and cost.

Segment Intelligence

Customer segmentation – powered by data, not guesswork. Segment Intelligence lets you build precise, multi-dimensional customer segments using 50,000+ consumer attributes from 30+ data sources. Analyze segment profiles, compare audiences, and activate with playbooks across marketing, product, channel, and CX – or bring segments to life as synthetic customers you can interview and test.

Panel Intelligence

Panel Intelligence has two components. Synthetic survey generation lets you build a panel of up to 5,000 AI-modeled respondents, field your survey, and get validated results in minutes. Conversational survey analysis and report generation lets you upload existing survey data from any vendor and get instant AI-powered insights – dynamic cross-tabs, segment-level comparisons, and exportable reports. Use them together or independently to pressure-test ideas before full-scale rollout.

Brand Intelligence

Track brand performance and demand signals, then identify whitespace opportunities across segments, categories, and geographies. Customer Link brings brand and competitive signals together so teams can spot shifts early and prioritize where to play and how to win.

Data fabric

The data fabric integrates 50,000+ US consumer and business attributes from 30+ sources, including 20+ PwC proprietary surveys, credit-bureau-sourced financial data, and twin panels of nearly 30M anonymized card-spend and mobile-visitation records. This foundation powers rapid analytics, segmentation, and synthetic customer modeling across front-office use cases, so you can keep pace as customers and markets evolve.
