Adobe Audience Manager

Adobe Audience Manager (AAM) is a powerful Data Management Platform (DMP) within the Adobe Experience Cloud that helps businesses unify customer data from various sources (first, second, and third-party) to create detailed audience profiles, segment them for targeted marketing, and activate these segments across different digital channels for personalized experiences, even supporting the shift to privacy-focused strategies. It uses AI (Adobe Sensei) for modeling and segmentation, enabling marketers to find valuable prospects, support customer journeys, and deliver relevant content or ads.
