Auto Personalization,a feature of Sitecore AI,was developed and refined through a pilot program conducted with multipleSitecore customers,including Microsoft.It was used to drive a more effective guided experience for visitors to Microsoft's Partner Network website while making the site faster and easier to manage for marketers. Sitecore and Microsoft have collaborated utilizing Azure Machine Learning to bring AI co-innovations to market faster.

For Microsoft,the Auto Personalization solution from Sitecore enables them to quickly customize content based on the individual user – for example,differentiating between a developer versus a marketer.

"We know visitors are on a journey,but the specific path may be different for each partner. We want to understand where each person is and communicate in a manner that connects with our partners. We previously made educated guesses about what activities define a partner's interest,but using AI lets us apply data directly to this problem in an actionable way," says Wina Wichienwidhtaya,OCP marketing technologist,Microsoft.

Sitecore AI-- Auto Personalization does the heavy lifting for marketers,clearing operational bottlenecks that prevent many personalization efforts from getting off the ground.
