Hightouch Launches Content Assembly to Create On-Brand Campaigns with AI

February 19, 2026

Use agents to remix existing assets into new, on-brand campaigns in minutes

Hightouch, the leader in data and AI for marketing, announced the launch of Content Assembly, a tool that enables marketers to use agents for the creation of on-brand campaign materials using their existing layouts, creative assets, and brand guidelines.

Content Assembly marks Hightouch’s first dedicated content capability and expands the company’s vision for agentic marketing. Unlike generic AI content tools that generate creative without context, Content Assembly is grounded in the assets and templates that teams already trust.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Omri Shtayer, Vice President of Data Products and DaaS at Similarweb

“Content production does not always need to start from a blank page,” said Tejas Manohar, Co-CEO and Co-Founder of Hightouch. “Content Assembly starts with what brands have already built and approved. It understands your layouts, imagery, brand rules, and past campaigns so every output is consistent, compliant, and ready to ship.”

Marketers can generate a campaign by describing what they want to build, such as a promotion or product launch. Hightouch then selects the optimal layout from existing templates, identifies relevant creative assets from connected systems, reviews past campaigns to apply proven messaging patterns, and incorporates brand guidelines and business objectives. Teams can refine outputs using AI prompts or manual editing tools, run an initial compliance review using custom agents trained on legal and brand standards, and export directly into channel platforms or download production-ready HTML.

By unlocking the reusability of existing assets, Content Assembly enables faster time to market and greater creative velocity for marketers without overloading design teams. Because outputs are grounded in pre-approved layouts and imagery, review cycles with legal and brand teams are shortened. The ability to quickly generate more campaign variants also enables personalization across audiences and channels.

Content Assembly is powered by Hightouch’s deep integrations with enterprise systems like cloud data warehouses, DAMs, design tools, and martech platforms. This comprehensive context layer enables AI to operate with a complete understanding of how a business markets, rather than generating content in isolation.

The launch builds on Hightouch’s broader Agentic Marketing Platform, which gives marketers AI agents that act across data, orchestration, and content without compromising governance or brand integrity.

Krisp Launches Real-Time Voice Translation SDK to Eliminate Language Barriers in Customer Experience

Krisp Launches Real-Time Voice Translation SDK to Eliminate Language Barriers in Customer Experience

Production-validated SDK enables CX platforms to embed multilingual voice directly into live customer conversations

Krisp announced the launch of its Voice Translation SDK, enabling CX platform developers to embed real-time multilingual voice-to-voice translation into live customer conversations at scale. The technology has been live in production CX environments since 2025 as part of Krisp’s Call Center AI platform, operating in real customer conversations globally before its SDK release.

Production-validated SDK enables CX platforms to embed multilingual voice directly into live customer conversations

Unlike text-based translation tools or offline speech processing, real-time voice translation must operate on continuous audio streams where latency, accuracy and conversational flow are tightly linked. Systems must recognize diverse accents, perform reliably in noisy environments and preserve natural turn-taking. Reducing latency too aggressively can compromise context and increase errors, while waiting too long can disrupt conversational flow.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Omri Shtayer, Vice President of Data Products and DaaS at Similarweb

Krisp’s Voice Translation SDK is engineered to balance these competing constraints in live, two-way conversations. It supports any combination of over 60 languages and is optimized for synchronous interactions where clarity and conversational continuity are critical. This enables multilingual interactions within live conversations without requiring human interpreters, which is critical in customer experience environments where multilingual support must operate in real time.

“In global customer experience, every language barrier directly impacts speed and customer satisfaction,” said Davit Baghdasaryan, Co-Founder and CEO of Krisp. “Real-time voice translation has to work inside live production environments at scale. By making Voice Translation available as an SDK, we’re enabling CX platforms to embed multilingual voice directly into live systems. Removing language friction changes the economics of global support.”

Marketing Technology News: Martech Architecture For Small Language Models: Building Governable AI Systems At Scale

The SDK is available for Windows, macOS and Web developers, allowing integration into both native and browser-based applications. To improve performance in real-world conditions, Krisp applies local Noise Cancellation before audio is processed in the cloud, isolating the primary speaker and improving recognition accuracy. The SDK also supports custom vocabulary and domain-specific dictionaries, enabling teams to enforce terminology and maintain consistency across professional environments.

The Voice Translation SDK expands Krisp’s broader portfolio of Voice AI models for customer experience, including noise cancellation, accent conversion, and voice isolation for Voice AI Agents (VIVA) which improves false interruptions and turn-taking. Krisp powers voice communication across more than 200 million devices worldwide and processes over 80 billion minutes of voice conversations each month.

Redwood Software Redefines Automation Observability with Redwood Insights Premium

Delivers full-stack visibility with new integrations for SAP Cloud ALM, Dynatrace, Splunk and New Relic

Redwood Software, the leading orchestration platform for the autonomous enterprise, announced observability advancements for RunMyJobs by Redwood, designed to democratize automation intelligence across IT and the business. The release expands native analytics integrated into the platform, introduces a new integration with SAP Cloud ALM and strengthens integrations with leading observability platforms to deliver panoramic, role-specific visibility across complex enterprise environments. The announcement comes at a critical time, as 61% of enterprises report their automation tools are underutilized, according to Redwood’s Enterprise Automation Index 2026, underscoring the need for deeper observability and actionable automation intelligence.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Stephen Howard-Sarin, MD of Retail Media, Americas @ Criteo

A unified observability ecosystem for automation

RunMyJobs by Redwood delivers observability through a layered, ecosystem-driven approach that accelerates transformation and significantly lowers the total cost of ownership (TCO) for operations:

Redwood Insights delivers tailored intelligence integrated into the platform, including pre-built and customizable dashboards, allowing teams to identify bottlenecks, track performance, meet compliance requirements and democratize automation data across the enterprise.
Integration with SAP Cloud ALM synchronizes RunMyJobs execution data directly into SAP, providing central operations transparency for SAP-centric organizations without switching tools.
Observability ecosystem integrations with platforms such as Dynatrace, Splunk, New Relic and AppDynamics enable full-stack telemetry correlation, accelerating root-cause analysis and reducing mean time to resolution (MTTR).

Together, these capabilities move enterprises beyond a one-size-fits-all “single pane of glass” to deliver high-fidelity, stakeholder-specific perspectives that drive faster decisions, lower operational risk and measurable business value.

“Automation can’t scale if insight is locked behind technical barriers,” said Charles Crouchman, Redwood’s Chief Product Officer. “Redwood’s strategy for observability moves insights out of silos and into the hands of everyone driving and impacting business outcomes. It’s intelligence that’s integrated, not bolted on — and it’s foundational for resilient, autonomous operations.”

Marketing Technology News: From MarTech Stack to MarTech Fabric: Weaving Brand, Content, and Conversion Into One Thread

Business outcomes that matter

Organizations using Redwood’s observability ecosystem can:

Reduce MTTR by correlating automation telemetry with application and infrastructure performance, reducing total cost of ownership
Eliminate manual reporting and the “IT-as-translator” bottleneck through self-service dashboards enables faster decision-making and driving transformative efforts
Improve predictability of critical business processes by tracking SLA risk in real time
Demonstrate automation ROI and support audits with long-term, immutable execution data

Redwood Insights Premium: Tailored insights and shared intelligence

Redwood Insights Premium extends the analytics capabilities of RunMyJobs with a no-code custom dashboard builder and 15 months of historical data retention, enabling long-term trend analysis, executive reporting and ROI measurement.

With Redwood Insights Premium, IT can securely create and share dashboards tailored for other teams and stakeholders, building a detailed view for specialists, such as data management, or focused views for business teams and executive leadership.

New SAP Cloud ALM integration

That same principle of role-specific visibility extends into SAP-centric operations, where SAP Cloud ALM is increasingly becoming the central control center for observability. The new SAP Cloud ALM connector for RunMyJobs extends SAP observability to include the automated jobs and workflows that underpin critical business processes across SAP and non-SAP systems.

Introducing Remote Assist by Vuzix Solutions

The first offering in the portfolio, Remote Assist by Vuzix Solutions, delivers native Microsoft Teams and Zoom support purpose-built for Vuzix smart glasses.

Remote assistance remains one of the most established enterprise use cases for wearable technology, delivering immediate value with minimal training requirements.

ActiveCampaign Backs Autonomous Marketing with Results Guarantee

The company becomes first in category to guarantee marketing outcomes, signaling strong platform performance & commitment to customer success

ActiveCampaign, the autonomous marketing platform that has redefined its product for the AI era, announced a Results Guarantee for new customers. Unlike traditional money-back policies, ActiveCampaign’s guarantee is focused on instant results, with a full refund available if they don’t see them within their first month for any reason. While most platforms make businesses spend at least 30 days learning the ropes, ActiveCampaign improves marketing outcomes from the start.

The guarantee is available immediately to all new direct customers globally and requires no separate opt-in. To qualify, customers simply need to purchase any subscription plan. They can then begin experiencing the benefits of ActiveCampaign: set up an email campaign with Active Intelligence, create an automation, send their first automated campaign, and more.

“Autonomous marketing delivers results from day one—that’s what we’re guaranteeing,” said Jason VandeBoom, founder and CEO of ActiveCampaign. “Whether it’s creating and sending campaigns in minutes or getting personalized recommendations without prompting, businesses will experience improved marketing performance right away. We’ve seen 88% of surveyed customers achieve faster results with our platform, and this guarantee backs that up. We’re putting our confidence in autonomous marketing to the test, and we believe the results will speak for themselves.”

The guarantee addresses a common friction point for businesses evaluating marketing platforms: the risk of switching costs, migration effort, and learning curves. By offering a full refund to new customers who complete onboarding but don’t find immediate value for any reason, ActiveCampaign aims to make it easier for customers to try the platform.

Full access to AI engine: New users have access to all features within Active Intelligence
Risk-free period: Full refund of subscription fees within 30 days for new customers
Global availability: Open to all new direct customers across all regions who purchase any ActiveCampaign subscription
Simple process: No separate opt-in if eligible, just use core features and decide if it’s right for your business, with a hassle-free process to request a refund

The guarantee complements ActiveCampaign’s existing customer success resources, including one-click migration tools, live onboarding support, and comprehensive training materials. According to the company’s data, customers typically see 3x faster campaign creation with Active Intelligence and a 17% improvement in email performance.

Don Purdy, Director of the University at Albany’s MBA for Executives Program, grew enrollments 27% year-over-year as a one-person marketing team. With the addition of Active Intelligence, open rates doubled from 18-20% to 35-40%. “As a one-person marketing team, I don’t have time for tools that promise a lot and deliver little,” said Purdy. “Active Intelligence helped me move from idea to campaign quickly, and the results followed: higher engagement, stronger inquiries, and enrollment growth. It’s been a game-changer for me, and 30 days is plenty of time to feel the difference.”

Ad Strategy Agent: Analyzes and recommends a comprehensive ad strategy based on numerous data inputs to guide business objectives and spend priorities. Generates a structured paid media campaign plan from a business summary, target country, and optional budget;Key outputs include:

Outline of Approach: Recommends a clear objective, provides practical budget ranges (daily/monthly);
Plan Overview: Outputs a platform plan with channel-specific formats, targeting inputs, and KPIs tailored to the business and market;
Spend Options: Displays multiple spend tiers that show how pacing and platform allocation evolve as the budget scales, giving non-experts the concrete guidance they need to launch and manage a successful campaign without deep advertising experience;
Extensive Integration: Supports a broad set of advertising channels (including Facebook/Instagram, Google Search, LinkedIn, TikTok, Pinterest, Reddit, Nextdoor, Amazon, and more) and returns a polished report view;
JSON Data: Delivers a comprehensive raw JSON bundle for downstream tools and agents.

“AdPrompt shows how x402 can make advanced marketing tools available on demand,” said Erik Reppel, Head of Engineering at Coinbase Developer Platform and founder of x402. “By running on Base, agents can make fast, low-cost payments feel seamless in the background so business owners can just focus on getting results.”

x402 and Shifts to the Agentic Advertising and Attention Economy Landscape

Part of AdPrompt’s mission is to automate the discovery and connection between local small businesses and relevant targeted local advertising opportunities. As the advertising ecosystem evolves beyond traditional programmatic workflows, the industry is moving toward an agentic model, where interoperable agents can identify opportunities, generate creative, execute campaigns, and continuously optimize performance.

“As the advertising industry rapidly becomes ‘agentic’, the tools around it must become agentic too. Unlike legacy systems, agentic systems work continuously with a seamless user experience: discovering opportunities, generating creatives, testing variations, optimizing spend, and reacting in near real time,” said Brook. “x402 brings a missing piece to the internet: a way to attach payments directly to an API call. Instead of requiring subscriptions, contracts, billing accounts, and complicated onboarding flows, x402 turns access into something much more natural: pay only for what you use, when you use it.”

With x402, a small business can invoke a capability, pay a micro-fee, and receive an output instantly. At the same time, enterprises and autonomous systems can run the same workflow at scale, executing thousands of paid calls per day with minimal friction.

Business Wire

February 18, 2026

Mktg.Tech Launches Independent Ranking and Evaluation Platform for Marketing Technology

Patent-Pending Innovation Reduces AI Agent Management Workload for Internal Teams, Accelerates Automation for Complex Use Cases

Ada, the trusted AI-native customer experience company and creator of the Agentic Customer Experience (ACX) Operating Model, announced its new unified Reasoning Engine™. This patent-pending breakthrough fundamentally changes how AI agents operate at enterprise scale, and dramatically accelerates the opportunity for more complex, longer-horizon task automation. For the first time, AI agents are powered by a single, unified intelligence: one “brain” that engages consistently across all modalities to deliver fast, accurate, and compliant customer experiences.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Omri Shtayer, Vice President of Data Products and DaaS at Similarweb

A New Foundation for Enterprise Agentic Customer Experience: Design once. Manage in one place. Engage everywhere.

As customer expectations rise and service channels multiply, enterprises struggle with fragmented AI systems that create operational and change management hurdles. Ada’s new unified Reasoning Engine delivers a single AI foundation, enabling AI agents to efficiently determine the next best action and automate even the most complex customer interactions without sacrificing speed, accuracy, policy adherence, or brand integrity.

For ACX teams, this unified view makes it faster and easier than ever to create, manage, and optimize their AI agent. A single instruction can now be deployed once and dynamically replicated in all channels and languages. Whether a customer chooses to engage over voice, messaging, social, or email, the AI agent draws from the same knowledge, policies, and brand standards. The result is a dramatic reduction in the manual effort required to maintain, coach, and evolve AI agents, and a significant boost in ACX manager productivity.

Customers also benefit from reduced handling time and more empathetic service, while enterprises realize lower cost-per-contact, higher automated resolution rates, and the ability to transition increasingly sophisticated, high-impact interactions to AI agents with confidence.

Playbooks and Coaching are now widely available on voice, enabling AI agents to follow standard operating procedures, handle complex multi-step calls, and continuously improve over time by incorporating granular feedback from past interactions.

“Voice has always been the hardest channel to transform,” said Brian Gilman, VP of Customer Support at workforce payments platform Branch. “With Ada’s unified Reasoning Engine, that’s changed. Our AI agents can now reason through complex, high-stakes voice conversations with the same intelligence that powers our digital channels. That means faster, more accurate support when our users need it most, especially in moments that directly impact their pay. By elevating the voice experience, we’re reducing friction, resolving issues more efficiently, and ensuring workers get the clarity and confidence they deserve.”

Dual Reasoning Architecture for Speed and Depth

Ada’s unified Reasoning Engine features a patent-pending dual-reasoning architecture, improving the customer experience by providing immediate, empathetic responses while simultaneously handling complex tasks in the background. This unified approach unlocks a new class of agentic customer experience, enabling AI agents to resolve complicated, multi-step workflows.

“Customer service doesn’t happen in silos, and AI agents shouldn’t either,” said Mike Gozzo, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Ada. “With the launch of our unified Reasoning Engine, Ada has established a new standard for agentic customer experience while improving how our customers’ internal ACX teams perform and scale. We now have one ‘brain’ behind every AI agent, applying the same context, logic, and safeguards, regardless of the channel. But these improvements aren’t just about scale–they’re also about depth. Customers will see a significant step improvement across the board with this new engine, allowing them to realize a more accurate and deeper resolution rate, even for the most complex inquiries. That’s what allows enterprises and ACX teams to move faster, with less risk, entrusting AI with even more real-world interactions.”

Reltio: New Harvard Business Review Analytic Services Survey Reveals Massive Readiness Gap for Agentic AI

Business Wire

February 18, 2026

Reltio: New Harvard Business Review Analytic Services Survey Reveals Massive Readiness Gap for Agentic AI

The report, sponsored by Reltio, finds only 15% of organizations have the necessary data foundation

Reltio^®, the context intelligence platform providing trusted business understanding for the enterprise AI era, announced the release of a new pulse survey by Harvard Business Review Analytic Services (HBR-AS), “Unlocking the Data Advantage in the Age of Intelligence.” The survey, sponsored by Reltio, finds that while 94% of organizations are exploring or implementing AI, a stark disconnect remains between enterprise AI aspirations and data readiness.

“Agentic AI represents a step-change in how work gets done, but its autonomy depends on something most enterprises still struggle to scale: unified, real-time, trustworthy data,” said Manish Sood, CEO and Founder of Reltio.

The survey of 325 global business and technology leaders highlights that while “trust in the reliability of data” is ranked as the most critical capability for AI success (94%), only 39% of organizations say they are highly proficient in this area. Furthermore, only 15% of respondents consider their data foundation “very ready” for the shift toward Agentic AI—autonomous systems that can act, decide, and execute workflows with minimal human supervision.

Marketing Technology News: MarTech Interview with Omri Shtayer, Vice President of Data Products and DaaS at Similarweb

Bridging the Readiness Divide

As organizations move beyond traditional automation toward the “Age of Intelligence,” the report identifies data silos as the top barrier to progress, cited by 46% of respondents. Other significant hurdles include insufficient data talent (42%) and unclear data strategies (39%).

“Agentic AI represents a step-change in how work gets done, but its autonomy depends on something most enterprises still struggle to scale: unified, real-time, trustworthy data,” said Manish Sood, CEO and Founder of Reltio. “This research confirms that the ‘plumbing’—the data foundation—is still the primary bottleneck. At Reltio, we believe that context is the decisive ingredient. Without a connected, governed, and real-time understanding of every entity and relationship, even the most advanced AI agents will fall short of their promise.”

Marketing Technology News: Martech Architecture For Small Language Models: Building Governable AI Systems At Scale

Key Findings

The Trust Gap: Despite its importance, 34% of leaders describe their data investment management as “very ad hoc and fragmented.”
Strategic Misalignment: Only 16% of respondents say their organization’s data investments are very organized and aligned with their business strategy.
The Shift to Context: Experts interviewed in the report emphasize the need for “semantic layers” that act as translation guides for AI, defining core business concepts and mapping relationships across systems.
Governance as an Advantage: 89% of leaders say data governance is highly important, but only 37% say their organization is highly proficient, suggesting that governance must evolve from a back-office compliance function to a strategic differentiator.

“We are entering an era where AI agents won’t just analyze data; they will act on it autonomously to resolve customer issues, optimize supply chains, and drive growth. However, an agent is only as effective as the context it is given,” said Sood. “If your data is fragmented or conflicting, your AI will be too. The leaders who win in the Age of Intelligence will be those who move beyond experimentation and treat data readiness not as a one-time project, but as a core organizational evolution. Reltio is committed to providing the context intelligence that allows these systems to reason, act, and deliver value with absolute confidence.”

While the company supports campaigns nationally, its client base is largely made up of local businesses and B2B companies—organizations that need clear ROI, steady pipeline impact, and a strategy built around competitive realities rather than generic best practices.

“Our focus has always been practical, sustainable growth,” said Kyle Sanders, Co-founder of Complete SEO. “We work with businesses that depend on consistent visibility—local service providers, regional brands, and B2B companies competing in tight niches. The AI tools we’ve developed allow us to analyze patterns across years of campaign data and anticipate shifts before they fully impact performance. That gives our clients a strategic advantage.”

The company’s proprietary internal tools integrate automation and predictive analytics into a single managed workflow. These systems help Complete SEO’s team identify keyword opportunities, map content gaps, detect technical friction points, and evaluate link-profile health with greater speed and consistency. Rather than relying solely on third-party platforms, the agency has built a customized internal environment that supports decision-making, prioritization, and quality assurance.

Importantly, these tools are not offered as a public product. They are designed specifically to support Complete SEO’s internal operators and processes—helping campaigns move faster from insight to execution while maintaining a high standard of review. The goal is not automation for its own sake, but intelligent acceleration: improving the human strategy loop by validating assumptions, reducing wasted effort, and surfacing opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

“There’s a lot of noise around AI in marketing right now,” Sanders added. “For us, it’s not about hype. It’s about using smarter internal infrastructure to support transparency, accountability, and better outcomes. Automation only matters when it improves the decisions behind the strategy.”

Complete SEO’s expanded Managed SEO Services program is built around structured execution across the core pillars of modern organic search: technical optimization, content strategy, authority development, and performance analytics. Campaigns are supported through ongoing technical monitoring, intent-driven keyword research, on-page and internal linking enhancements, content calibration aligned to real search behavior, and link acquisition strategies designed to build authority without sacrificing quality.

The expansion also reflects a growing market demand for managed programs that deliver consistency. Many businesses recognize that “SEO services” often vary dramatically by region and provider—while managed SEO services increasingly signals a more complete, ongoing strategy with measurable performance tracking. Complete SEO’s approach is designed to meet that expectation with clear planning, transparent reporting, and continuous refinement as search conditions change.

As more industries face rising search volatility and increasingly crowded SERPs, Complete SEO’s updated managed offering is designed to help small and mid-sized organizations benefit from enterprise-level methodology without losing the responsiveness and hands-on attention of a specialized agency partner. The company emphasizes sustainable ranking growth rather than short-term spikes, aligning search strategy with long-term brand and revenue outcomes.
