With customer acquisition costs (CAC) surging 200% over the past decade and digital marketing shifting toward privacy-first solutions, brands face increasing pressure to maximize data efficiency. Journify's AI-powered SaaS platform captures, unifies, and activates first-party data in real time, boosting ROAS, optimizing marketing performance, and future-proofing data infrastructure for sustainable growth.

Its solutions enable real-time data activation, achieve up to 5x higher match rates for superior targeting accuracy, deliver smarter attribution insights, and ensure privacy-first compliance with global regulations.
"After years of navigating the complexities of traditional CDPs, our team understands the challenges marketers face in activating first-party data efficiently" said Taoufik El Jamali, CEO and Co-Founder of Journify. "We built Journify to eliminate these pain points, providing a seamless, AI-powered data activation solution that enables brands to focus on results, not technical hurdles."
