Written by Mike Kaput | Aug 16, 2018 2:48:00 PM

Marketers always have the same question when it comes to artificial intelligence:

“How do I get started with AI?”

The best way is to experiment with AI-powered marketing tools.

But there are a lot of vendors out there. And a lot of bold claims about what AI can and can’t do.

So taking demos and trials of tools is a must.

We can point you in the right direction.

At the Marketing AI Institute, we’re tracking 750+ AI companies with combined funding of more than $3.7 billion. Of those, we’ve interviewed 40+ vendors with combined funding of more than $1 billion.

In this post, we’ve listed all AI-powered vendors we’ve interviewed to-date, a list of 43 tools in total.

  • Planning: Building intelligent strategies.
  • Production: Creating intelligent content.
  • Personalization: Powering intelligent consumer experiences.
  • Promotion: Managing intelligent cross-channel and cross-device promotions.
