By Jayne Schultheis — AI advancements have been making serious waves in the content marketing world. Tools powered by artificial intelligence are quickly becoming go-to resources for marketers looking to create targeted content in ways that are smarter and faster.

For a lot of marketers, these tools help save time on repetitive tasks and offer AI-driven insights that are tough to get manually. Powered by technologies like machine learning and natural language processing (NLP), AI tools for marketers can analyze huge amounts of data, learn what works, and even suggest ways to tweak your content for better results.

What role does AI play in digital marketing?

The short answer? Whatever role you want it to play and however much you want to incorporate it!

According to a Salesforce survey, marketers said the following about generative AI:

• 71% say generative AI will eliminate busy work. 
• 71% say generative AI will allow them to focus on more strategic work.
• In fact, they estimate generative AI will save them over five hours a week – the equivalent of over a month in one year.

A lot of hype has promoted a complete "digital transformation" and easy content generation. There are caveats and concerns, however, that every marketer should keep in mind. 

First: The quality of an AI tool depends on the quality and breadth of the data it's trained on. According to that same Salesforce survey, 67% of marketers say their company’s data is not properly set up for generative AI.  

Second, AI isn't perfect and can lack contextual understanding, nuance, and creativity. It often requires human oversight, expert prompting, and editing. A lot of marketers aren't sure how to get the most value out of the technology quite yet. That being said, plenty of the available tools go beyond the basics, offering value at different steps of the marketing and content distribution pipeline.

Many marketers are curious about the digital tools needed to make the most of AI integration. In this article, we'll walk you through some of the most useful content AI tools. Whether you’re looking to automate parts of your workflow, improve your SEO game, or just stay ahead of the curve, there’s probably a tool that can make your life a little easier.

Marketing management

Marketing managers are often juggling a lot of plates. Fortunately, these marketing tools have integrated the power of AI to automate common tasks, so managers can focus more on strategy.

• Hubspot. HubSpot is arguably one of the most widely adopted marketing platforms out there (and for good reason). It's evolved past a basic CRM into a full-blown marketing automation powerhouse with AI features baked in. Marketers use it for everything from email personalization and lead scoring to content optimization and predictive analytics. Its user-friendly interface and robust integrations make it a go-to for businesses of all sizes, especially those wanting an all-in-one solution with strong AI support.‍
• Sprout Social. Sprout Social is a well-established social media management platform that incorporates AI features like smart scheduling, sentiment analysis, and performance predictions. While it’s not a full marketing suite, it can help teams focus on content-driven social strategies and community engagement. Its intuitive interface and solid reporting features make it a favorite among small and medium-sized teams, especially those managing multiple brands or platforms.‍
• Albert.ai. Albert.ai is a rising star that’s gaining attention for how it automates entire digital marketing campaigns. It’s not just about analytics or task automation. Albert also can run paid ad campaigns across channels like Facebook, Google, and YouTube. It analyzes data in real time, tests variations, allocates budget, and continuously optimizes toward performance goals. It's more of an "autonomous marketing" tool than just a dashboard or assistant. This makes it stand out, especially for brands looking to scale without dramatically increasing headcount.

Writing assistants and generators

If you're short on time or resources, especially if you need to churn out a lot of content, these helpful AI-powered tools can be useful.

• Jasper. Jasper is one of the most recognizable names in AI writing tools, especially for marketers and content teams. It is known for being easy to use and having the ability to generate high-quality long-form content. Agencies and marketing teams that need to scale content creation quickly have jumped on board. Jasper also has added AI-powered brand voice training and collaboration tools to stay competitive.‍
• Claude. Claude, from Anthropic, is proving to be a seriously capable writing assistant, especially for long-form, thoughtful content. It’s more conversational and less templated than tools like Jasper, which makes it a good fit for marketers writing in-depth guides, whitepapers, or nuanced messaging. Claude is also known for being more context-aware and safer in tone, which helps when you're working with complex ideas or sensitive topics. It’s a rising star that may be worth experimenting with.‍
• Writer. Writer (formerly Writer.com) strikes a balance between power and specialization. Unlike general-purpose AI tools, Writer is tailored for enterprise use, with a big emphasis on brand consistency, tone, and compliance. It's ideal for larger teams that need to make sure everyone’s writing sounds like one voice. It even integrates with existing workflows like Google Docs and Chrome. It’s not flashy, but it's dependable and purpose-built for serious content operations.

Content AI tools for editing

If natural language generation doesn’t suit your content creation needs, you might find that AI can help edit content. If you want to conserve time and resources, these tools might help.

• Grammarly. Grammarly is basically the household name of AI editing tools. It’s been around long enough to earn trust, and it’s constantly improving with AI-driven suggestions for clarity, tone, engagement, and even inclusivity. It works across email, documents, and browsers, making it a favorite for both casual writers and professional teams. For marketers, it’s especially helpful in publishing polished, error-free content quickly, while sticking to a consistent brand voice.‍
• Hoppy Copy. Hoppy Copy is a newer tool built specifically with marketers in mind. While it offers standard editing help, its real strength is optimizing email and ad copy. It uses AI to spot spam triggers, rewrite subject lines for better open rates, and fine-tune tone for different audiences. It’s not your traditional grammar checker. It’s more like an AI coach focused on conversion. For teams doing a lot of email marketing, it's a great asset.‍
• Hemingway Editor. Hemingway Editor has been quietly helping writers simplify their content for years. It doesn’t use AI in the traditional, generative sense. Instead, it flags overly complex sentences, passive voice, and readability issues. It’s perfect for marketers who want to make sure their content is tight, scannable, and digestible (especially for web readers). It doesn’t try to do everything, but what it does, it does well.

Visual content generators

We've all seen some wild AI-generated photos and videos. These innovative solutions can generate whatever visual assets you need to get quality audience engagement.

• Canva. At this point, Canva is practically a marketer’s best friend. It’s simple enough for non-designers but powerful enough to produce polished content. Whether you’re creating social graphics, slide decks, or ad creatives, it’s fast, intuitive, and packed with templates that actually look good. AI features like background remover and Magic Resize also save a ton of time when you're juggling multiple platforms. If you're working in a small team or flying solo, Canva can easily handle most of your design needs without ever opening Photoshop.‍
• Lumen5. Lumen5 flies under the radar a bit, but it’s a game-changer for marketers who need to crank out video content without a video team. It takes blog posts or marketing copy and automatically builds a social-friendly video out of it, complete with visuals, transitions, and music. It’s especially useful for repurposing written content into something more dynamic for platforms like LinkedIn or Instagram. If you’ve ever wished your blog posts could just magically become videos, this tool gets you pretty close.‍
• Visme. Visme sits in that sweet spot between design flexibility and business-focused features. It’s not as mainstream as Canva, but it offers more customization for things like infographics, data visualizations, and interactive content. Those features can really help when you’re trying to explain complex ideas in a compelling way. It’s especially helpful for marketers who need to create reports or client presentations that don’t look like they came out of a spreadsheet. Not quite a beginner tool, but definitely not overwhelming either.

Audio and voice content tools

In marketing, "brand voice" is one of the most important parts of outward-facing brand visibility. These tools can help you to make it count.

• Descript. Descript is the Swiss Army knife of audio content. In one platform, you can record, transcribe, edit, and even clone your voice. It lets you edit audio as if it were a Google Doc (literally deleting text to cut audio), which is a game-changer for folks who hate traditional timeline editing. For marketers working on podcasts, webinars, or quick voiceovers, Descript makes high-quality production manageable without the need for a studio setup.‍
• Murf.ai. Murf.ai is a standout if you’re focused more on voiceovers than full podcast editing. It offers a library of natural-sounding AI voices (with emotional tones), and even lets you sync those with visuals for things like explainer videos. It’s great for marketers or small teams who need consistent, professional audio without hiring voice talent. Not as flashy as other products in this sector, but is quietly powerful.‍
• ElevenLabs. ElevenLabs has been generating a ton of buzz thanks to its incredibly lifelike voice synthesis—but it’s still not as widely adopted in marketing circles as Descript. What makes it interesting is the ability to clone your own voice for narration or video and to create unique branded voices. If you're into content personalization or brand storytelling, this tool has real potential, especially as voice-driven content keeps growing.

AI-powered SEO tools

Here's a roundup of useful AI-powered SEO tools.

• Surfer SEO. Surfer SEO has quickly become a staple for content and SEO teams looking to climb the SERPs without drowning in complexity. It breaks down the top-ranking pages for any keyword and gives you a content score, suggested word count, heading structure, and even NLP keywords to include. It’s intuitive, integrates with Google Docs, and makes SEO feel less like guesswork. For content writers who want to rank without becoming full-blown SEO experts, this is one of the best tools out there.‍
• Market Brew. Market Brew flies under the radar, but it’s incredibly smart. It essentially acts like a search engine simulator—helping you test and predict how algorithm updates or site changes might affect your rankings. It’s not as beginner-friendly as other tools, but if you’re into data modeling or want deep insights into how Google thinks, this tool gives you something other platforms just don’t.‍
• Frase.io. Frase.io hits a nice balance between content research and SEO. It pulls in SERP data, helps you build an outline, and even writes draft sections using AI. It’s especially good for marketers who want one tool to handle research, writing, and optimization without bouncing between tabs. Not as well-known as Surfer, but more approachable than Market Brew — and very capable.

Content performance predictors

If you're investing a ton in your content, you want to see the data and trends that could point you in the right direction.

• Clearscope. Clearscope is a trusted resource for content teams looking to improve SEO performance before hitting publish. It uses NLP to analyze top-ranking content and gives you clear, actionable suggestions on how to make your content more competitive — from keyword usage to readability. It doesn’t overcomplicate things, which makes it ideal for busy marketers who want results without the fluff.‍
• Predis. Predis is an emerging tool built with social media marketers in mind. It helps generate content ideas and then predicts how well those posts will perform based on your past engagement. It’s lightweight, quick to use, and surprisingly insightful—great for brands that post often and need to know what’s likely to land well.

AI content detection

Teachers and professors everywhere will tell you: AI content detection is much-needed. If you want to make sure you're providing authentic content that reads as expert and not artificial, tools like these can help you edit.

• Originality.ai. Originality.ai is probably the most widely adopted detection tool among SEO agencies and publishers. It’s designed specifically to spot AI-generated content (including GPT-4) and check for plagiarism at the same time. You get detailed scoring, version tracking, and team features, making it especially useful if you’re managing outsourced or AI-assisted content. ‍
• BrandWell (formerly ContentAtScale). Even though it’s not as well-known outside the SEO crowd, the BrandWell is actually quite good at what it does. It uses a mix of AI models to detect generated content and is tuned specifically for long-form marketing content. If you’re producing blog posts or landing pages at scale and need to make sure it all passes human-authenticity checks, this one’s worth a try.‍
• GPTZero. GPTZero had a viral moment when educators were trying to curtail students using ChatGPT. But it has found broader use with marketers, editors, and media teams. It’s not the most technical tool on the list, but it’s fast, simple to use, and pretty reliable for flagging content that “reads” as AI-written. Great for spot-checking drafts without diving too deep.

AI competitor analysis

In order to know what it takes to win, you've got to know your competition.

• Crayon. Crayon is probably the most well-known and well-rounded tool when it comes to AI-powered competitive intelligence for marketing. It doesn’t just track what your competitors are doing. It shows you how they’re positioning themselves, when they launch new campaigns, and how their messaging evolves over time. Marketers and sales teams use it to fine-tune their own strategy and give their teams a smarter, real-time edge in the field.‍
• Contify. Contify pulls competitive insights from tons of sources (news, websites, press releases, blogs) and uses AI to filter and summarize what actually matters. It’s especially good for B2B teams that need market context without digging through endless feeds. If your marketing decisions are tied to broader industry moves, Contify gives you a smarter lens.‍
• Similarweb. Similarweb is a reliable choice for marketers who want a bird’s-eye view of their competitors’ digital performance. It breaks down traffic sources, audience behavior, paid vs. organic strategy, and even referral traffic paths. It’s not too complex to use, but it still delivers deep insights. It's a particular favorite among teams that want to keep an eye on the competition without drowning in data.

By Jayne Schultheis —  AI integration isn't just a novel tool for marketing, it's crucial for keeping pace with your competitors (who are probably using AI). In one recent study by Siege Media, 90% of content marketers said they plan to use AI to support content marketing efforts in 2025 — up from 83.2% in 2024 and 64.7% in 2023.

While AI is an exciting new development, integrating it into your marketing plan can seem pretty intimidating, especially with the technology changing rapidly.

Ready to maximize your return on investment and maintain a cutting-edge position in the market? Then let's take a deep dive on the essentials of content AI. We'll identify potential obstacles in deployment and outline strategies for successful integration.

Understanding content AI and its role in business

Content AI is a transformative force, leveraging machine learning and natural language processing to automate a wide range of content-related tasks. These technologies are the core mechanisms of efficient data analysis, real-time content generation, and personalized communication. They enable businesses to boost operational efficiency and remain competitive. According to Salesforce, most marketers are already using AI for basic content creation (76%) and for generating a copy (76%). 

Beyond automation, Content AI supports functions like content optimization, sentiment analysis, and adaptive learning systems. These features can help you refine messaging strategies. As organizations manage growing volumes of data and customer interactions, Content AI provides solutions with scalability for content creation, curation and delivery.

Businesses are already seeing profound results with AI integration. By automating repetitive tasks, Content AI frees employees to focus on more strategic initiatives, accelerating workflows and inspiring innovation. With smarter decision-making capabilities powered by AI, companies can improve productivity, customer experience, and overall operational effectiveness.

Key challenges in implementing content AI

All technology has its caveats, and AI is no exception. Beyond the questions of AI ethics regarding data scraping and plagiarism, there are some potential pitfalls you should watch out for.

Engaging the reader

The challenge: One of the primary challenges with Content AI is making sure the generated content is relevant and engaging. AI excels at producing large volumes of information quickly. It can sometimes fall short, however, in capturing human emotion, tone, and nuance — elements that are essential for connecting with audiences. Readers can easily detect content that feels robotic, generic, or uninspired. This makes it crucial for organizations to strike a balance between automation and human creativity. The goal is to blend AI with editorial oversight to make sure content feels authentic, compelling and aligned with the brand voice.

Additionally, engaging content often reflects an understanding of cultural context, current trends and audience intent — areas where AI still struggles. Relying solely on machine-generated content without refinement can lead to missed opportunities for emotional resonance and reduced reader retention.

The solution: Companies must invest in training AI systems with domain-specific data and pair them with skilled content strategists to craft content that truly captivates the target audience.

Accuracy

The challenge: Maintaining accuracy is a significant hurdle in the adoption of content AI. AI tools may inadvertently produce incorrect or outdated information if not properly monitored. This issue is particularly critical in industries like healthcare, finance, or law, where even minor inaccuracies can have serious consequences.

The reliance on third-party data sources and historical training data further complicates the situation, as the AI might replicate biases or misinformation found in those sources.

The solution: Organizations need to set up rigorous fact-checking mechanisms and establish clear editorial guidelines for AI-generated content. Human oversight is essential — not just to catch errors, but to make sure the content reflects the company’s credibility and compliance standards. Additionally, integrating real-time data sources and feedback loops can help improve the reliability and trustworthiness of content AI over time.

Quality control

The challenge: Automated systems can sometimes generate content that is repetitive, off-topic, or lacking in depth, especially when dealing with complex or niche subjects. Without proper quality control measures, the risk of publishing subpar or irrelevant material increases, potentially damaging brand reputation and user trust.

The solution: Companies need a strong framework for content review and refinement. This may include layered approval processes, AI performance audits and feedback mechanisms from both internal teams and end users. Constant monitoring and regular updates to the AI model are also vital to maintaining high standards. While AI can enhance productivity, maintaining AI content quality still depends on a well-orchestrated collaboration between technology and human expertise.

Strategies for successful content AI integration

A lot of people love the idea of content AI, but don't know how to make the best use of it. Here are some guidelines.

Develop a robust implementation strategy

First, assess your resources. Where are you falling behind technologically? What's preventing your ideal workflow optimization? What are the best applications of AI for your marketing plans? This evaluation will identify potential areas for AI integration and help you align it with business objectives.

Design a better user experience for your readers

Content AI can be a game-changer for boosting relevancy and user engagement. It’s great for speeding up tasks like:

• Determining the topics you should address in your content
• Creating briefs for that content
• Writing meta titles and descriptions
• Generating eye-catching art
• Crafting LinkedIn posts

It can also be a lifesaver when you’re staring down writer’s block — and we've all been there. But as a human content expert, you should know when to lean on AI and when a human touch is still the better call.

Maximize your ROI through effective (and strategic) content AI integration

Many businesses with limited time and resources for content are looking for shortcuts with AI. If your goal is to get a lot of content online quickly, you can use AI to generate entire articles. Rellify certainly can handle that for you.

We recommend, however, that you carefully and thoughtfully create detailed prompts when using AI to generate whole articles. You will get much better results.

Even so, you'll still need to review the output, check the facts and add your own flavor. That might be industry-specific statistics, customer success stories or even just language that reflects your core values. Your brand's voice is an important part of the marketing strategy, and your content reflects the effort you put into it.

Rellify and AI integration

Rellify uses cutting-edge AI technology to help clients figure out what topics and keywords will resonate best with their readers, and what will get their content to the top of search engine results. With a focus on discoverability, relevance, and differentiation, Rellify can help you find content gaps, get winning ideas, and create smarter plans and briefs — all in one platform.

And with a custom Relliverse™ you can further leverage deep machine learning and AI to make sure you're writing quality content about the right topics. Ready to start seeing results? Schedule a brief demo with one of our Rellify experts today.

By Jayne Schultheis — We all know that LinkedIn is a social platform built for the corporate world. But more importantly, it’s the key to building brand awareness, nurturing connections, and driving qualified lead generation for your business.

Whether you’re posting video content, running LinkedIn Ads, or leveraging a strategy to get the most out of longform content, LinkedIn has the tools to make your marketing pop. So, let’s break down how to execute a well-crafted LinkedIn strategy focused on content marketing.

LinkedIn is the MVP when it comes to brand awareness in B2B marketing

When LinkedIn hit the corporate world, it changed the game for B2B marketers, offering a direct line to a super-targeted, professional audience. And it's only improved with time. With advanced filters like job title, industry, company size, and location, it’s easy to get your message in front of the decision-makers and influencers who actually matter. This precision makes LinkedIn an ideal platform for building brand awareness and connecting with the right people in a meaningful way.

One of the best ways to grow your brand on LinkedIn is by consistently sharing high-value content. Use thought leadership articles, case studies, and industry insights to position your company as a trusted expert. By providing real value, you’ll keep your audience engaged and build the trust that’s essential for long-term success in the B2B space.

On top of content, LinkedIn’s suite of tools — like targeted ads, sponsored posts, and lead gen forms — enables you boost your visibility and generate quality leads. These features help you to meet prospects where they are, making it easier to spark conversations that turn into relationships. Finally, a solid company page can showcase your brand’s culture, values, and latest updates. You can keep your brand front and center with both potential clients and talent.

10 ways to optimize your LinkedIn strategy

Let's get into the heart of the matter.

1. First impressions matter: Profile optimization

You wouldn’t walk into a meeting with a crumpled resume, right? Same thing goes for your LinkedIn profile. Make sure your company page and personal profiles are optimized for maximum impact. This is your digital business card, your online storefront. Optimize with SEO in mind, fill out every section, and make sure the content resonates with your target audience. This is your first impression — make it count.

2. Content that sparks engagement

For the most part, people are on LinkedIn to grow professionally and stay informed. That’s where your content comes in. But beware of spammy posting and entirely AI-generated copy. Instead, you want to focus on content that drives engagement. Think thought leadership, case studies, and of course, video content. Whether you’re sharing industry trends, thought-provoking posts, or sponsored content, get people talking. Encourage comments, shares, and direct messages. That's where real engagement starts.

3. Use LinkedIn Ads for precision targeting

Want to get your message in front of exactly the right people? LinkedIn Ads are the way to go. With LinkedIn Ads, you can target decision-makers, influencers, and professionals in your niche with laser precision. LinkedIn ads have become more sophisticated, offering options like conversational ads, carousel ads, and video ads. Use LinkedIn's analytics tools to fine-tune your targeting. You'll notice a boost in your conversion rates when you reach the exactly right audience.

4. Influence the influencers

Although "influencers" on LinkedIn might be a little different than the ones on Instagram and TikTok, they're just as powerful when it comes to making waves in your industry. Build partnerships and run co-branded campaigns that tap into their established network. Cross-promotion on LinkedIn with an influencer can boost both your brand awareness and credibility. Plus, it’s an easy way to get your content in front of thousands, if not millions, of new potential connections.

5. Don't forget analytics

Don't cast a wide net and hope for the best. That's a great way to waste your marketing budget. Instead, lean on LinkedIn’s analytics tools. They provide detailed insights into how your posts, ads, and overall strategy are performing. Are people engaging with your content? What specific factors have had the greatest impact on lead generation? Use this data to tweak your content marketing strategy and continuously optimize your approach.

6. The power of hashtags and SEO

SEO isn’t just a Google thing, it’s helpful for LinkedIn too! Use relevant hashtags to get your content discovered by more people. Develop a smart hashtag strategy that makes sense for your niche, and watch your reach grow. Combine that with profile optimization and you’re setting yourself up for maximum visibility and reach.

7. Email marketing and customer relationship management

Email marketing might seem like old-school stuff, but it can provide a powerful one-two punch when paired with LinkedIn. By combining email campaigns with your LinkedIn presence, you can nurture leads from multiple angles. Plus, you can integrate your LinkedIn insights into your customer relationship management tools to track and convert more leads.

8. Use cross-promotion

In marketing, the old adage, "don't put all your eggs in one basket," is a wise strategy. Especially when you choose a few baskets that are uniquely woven to meet your brand's needs.

Cross-promotion is one way to make sure you're getting the most out of what you have. Share snippets of your LinkedIn content on your other social platforms, link to your LinkedIn company page in your email signature, or collaborate with other companies to co-create content. This is all about expanding your professional network and reaching a broader audience. This is where SEO-optimized, evergreen content can be one of your best assets. Extract the most eye-catching and hard-hitting quotes that leave a reader wanting more and use it as a teaser for the article. Create a great graphic that sparks curiosity.

9. Leverage AI

LinkedIn's algorithms are becoming more sophisticated. The network is using AI to recommend content to users based on their behavior, industry trends, and professional networks. Now is the time for marketers to focus on creating personalized content that aligns with these evolving AI patterns.

LinkedIn has also introduced more advanced automation tools to help businesses streamline their outreach, lead generation, and campaign management, which can be useful for optimizing time and resources.

10. Use Rellify

If you want to pair a great content strategy with a powerful LinkedIn approach, Rellify can help.

Rellify is the all-around solution for getting your content better found in the B2B sector. With a custom Relliverse™, you can find niche topics and keywords that are already resonating with your target audience.

By Jayne Schultheis — Marketing has always been about understanding people — their desires, their pain points, their hidden motivations. But what if you could have a digital partner that understands your customers better than they understand themselves? Welcome to the world of agentic AI marketing, where intelligent systems don't just analyze data — they predict, personalize, and propose courses of action.

In this article, we'll dive into how agentic AI is transforming marketing from a game of educated guesswork to a science of pinpoint precision. We'll explore how these intelligent systems are reshaping everything from customer segmentation to personalized content creation.

Ready to build an agentic AI marketing strategy?

What is agentic AI?

Agentic AI refers to artificial intelligence systems that have advanced decision-making capabilities and the ability to act autonomously, without the need for direct human oversight. Agentic AI can analyze complex data, make decisions in real-time, and execute tasks on its own. These systems are designed to solve problems, adapt strategies, and improve outcomes by learning from their environment and adjusting their actions accordingly.

Agentic AI allows for more agile, data-driven marketing strategies that evolve based on continuous learning.

At Rellify, our patent-pending platform automatically creates custom AI models trained on data from your industry and competitors to be a subject matter expert. We leverage agentic AI to analyze content opportunities so you can identify and address relevant topics and trends ahead of your competition. Using that data, our platform can then autonomously select the best keywords and natural language queries for each topic. If you choose, it also can general content automatically.

To learn more about how it could help your business, contact us for a free demo.

Benefits of using agentic AI in marketing

Agentic AI is still in an experimental stage, and lots of companies are still figuring out exactly how to best use natural language processing tools and machine learning within their already-established processes. Marketing automation in any form still needs the helpful, watchful eye of human oversight, especially since predictive modeling can operate on inherent biases

Here are some of the broader ways you can expect to see positive growth when you employ agentic AI in your marketing:

• Efficiency and speed. Automate repetitive tasks and reduce time spent on manual data analysis and decision-making.
• Scalability. Scale campaigns and operations without additional human resources.
• Better customer experience. Improve the customer experience through seamless, personalized engagement and recommendations.
• Data-driven insights. Leverage vast amounts of data for more accurate insights and lead generation.
• Cost-effectiveness. Cut costs by automating processes and optimizing campaigns.

Now, let's take a closer look at how you might develop and implement an  agentic AI marketing strategy.

What makes a great agentic AI marketing strategy?

If you're considering agentic AI, you'll want to know the mechanisms and algorithms in play, just as you would want to know a job candidate's qualifications before you put them to work.

For an effective agentic AI marketing strategy, you'll need several key components come together.

Advanced personalization

In today's market, the name of the game when it comes to consumer engagement is personalization.

Advanced personalization with AI takes this a step further. Agentic AI can analyze vast amounts of customer data and use it to create hyper-targeted, individualized experiences. Unlike traditional methods that rely on broad demographic categories or pre-defined customer segments, agentic AI dives deeper into behavioral data, such as browsing habits, purchase history, social media interactions, and even sentiment analysis from customer feedback.

By continuously learning from this data, agentic AI can understand each customer's unique preferences, needs, and pain points in real time. For example, AI can tailor email subject lines, product recommendations, or even website layouts based on a customer’s previous interactions, interests, and even their stage in the customer journey.

Furthermore, agentic AI can adapt to changes in customer behavior on the fly. If a customer shifts their preferences or starts exploring new products, the AI can automatically update its recommendations and adjust marketing strategies without human intervention. Each person who interacts with your brand could receive a continuously evolving, personalized experience that drives engagement, conversion, and customer retention.

Predictive analytics and forecasting

One of the greatest benefits of this type of technology integration is the elimination of guesswork when it comes to predicting what will work for your brand.

• Data sourcing. Agentic AI uses automation to collect and integrate big data pools from various sources in real time, including customer behaviors, website interactions, social media, CRM systems, and market trends. This allows for a more holistic view of the market and customer behavior.
• Customer insights and market segmentation. Agentic AI can use machine learning algorithms to create highly granular customer segments based on predictive behaviors, such as likelihood to buy and lifetime value. This helps marketers target the right audience with tailored messages. Agentic AI can also help forecast the potential lifetime value of different customers or customer segments. Businesses can then focus resources on retaining and nurturing high-value customers through the sales funnel.
• Behavioral analysis and predictions. It can predict future customer actions such as buying decisions, churn, and engagement, based on historical data and real-time signals. Businesses can optimize campaigns before they even launch.

Streamlining marketing campaigns and ROI optimization

When you're running a small to medium-sized business, every single penny counts. Agentic AI can help cut out wasteful spending and sharpen your focus on paths that have the best chance of success.

• Dynamic pricing models. Agentic AI can help predict demand fluctuations and adjust pricing strategies in real time to maximize revenue and market share. It can analyze historical pricing patterns, competitor pricing, and consumer demand elasticity.
• Efficient budget allocation. Agentic AI can predict which marketing channels, ads, or strategies are likely to bring the highest ROI, helping businesses allocate marketing budgets more efficiently. Dynamic resource allocation minimizes waste and maximizes the impact of every dollar spent.
• Scenario simulation. Agentic AI can model future scenarios and predict outcomes for different marketing strategies, allowing businesses to select the most profitable options. This leads to better decision-making and reduced risk. Think of it like virtual reality meets digital marketing, and you achieve the best outcomes without real-life trial and error.
• Scalable campaign execution. Once predictive models are in place, agentic AI can automatically execute marketing campaigns at scale and adjust variables based on continuous data feedback.
• Competitor analysis. By autonomously tracking competitors’ activities, pricing strategies, and marketing campaigns, agentic AI can predict their next moves and help businesses position themselves effectively in the market. More broadly, agentic AI also can forecast industry trends and competitor actions.

Challenges and considerations with agentic AI

While agentic AI offers tremendous marketing advantages, it also introduces significant ethical considerations. The ability to analyze vast consumer data and predict behaviors raises data privacy concerns. These systems might access and use personal information in ways consumers never intended or consented to.

There's also the challenge of algorithmic bias. If the AI is trained on skewed data, it may perpetuate or even amplify existing prejudices, unfairly targeting certain demographics while excluding others.

Transparency presents another hurdle. When AI automatically decides who sees which marketing messages, both marketers and consumers may lose visibility into how these choices are made.

Companies must balance effective marketing with the ethical responsibility not to manipulate consumers, especially vulnerable populations. Organizations implementing agentic AI must develop clear governance frameworks, establish boundaries for AI autonomy, and regularly audit their systems to ensure they align with both regulatory requirements and broader societal values.

We should also address the elephant in the room: Is agentic AI going to replace real-life employees? We think that AI won't replace human creativity. Instead, it can enhance it by creating hybrid workflows where AI handles the data-heavy tasks and human marketers get more time to focus on strategic planning, creativity, and brand positioning.

Case study: How HubSpot's Breeze uses agentic AI to transform marketing workflows

Before implementing Breeze, HubSpot had noticed that marketing teams faced some very real challenges:

• Lead nurturing sequences required constant manual adjustment.
• Campaign performance analysis consumed hours of specialist time.
• Personalization efforts couldn't scale effectively.
• Despite having access to mountains of customer data, it was difficult to extract actionable insights quickly enough to respond to market changes.

The AI solution

In early 2024, HubSpot rolled out Breeze, an agentic AI system designed specifically for marketing workflow automation. It can observe, learn, and make autonomous decisions within carefully defined parameters.

Breeze integrates with HubSpot's existing marketing platform, analyzing real-time data from multiple sources: website interactions, email engagement, social media activity, and CRM data ability. The system can:

• Enrich company and contact records so you can make data-driven decisions to convert your best opportunities.
• Personalize content at scale by understanding individual contact behaviors, preferences, and buyer intent.
• Optimize lead scoring models by identifying which engagement patterns truly predict conversion
• Create optimized forms that autofill information from the Breeze Intelligence commercial database behind the scenes — and convert better.

Hubspot also offers specific AI "agents" that are specialized for certain functions:

• Breeze Content Agent. Create quality blogs, landing pages, podcasts, and case studies in your brand voice.
• Breeze Social Media Agent. Analyze performance, industry data, and best practices to create compelling social content.
• Breeze Prospecting Agent. Craft and implement tailored outreach for CRM prospects to enhance your sales pipeline.
• Breeze Customer Agent (Beta). Respond quickly to site visitors with AI trained on your website, blog, and knowledge base.

The results

Six months after full deployment, HubSpot customers documented remarkable improvements in their processes, including:

• Higher marketing-qualified lead conversion rates.
• Lower cost-per-acquisition across digital channels.
• Less time spent on routine campaign adjustments.
• Better email engagement metrics like click-through rates.

Perhaps most significantly, the marketing team reported spending more time on creative and strategic initiatives than before Breeze implementation.

Best practices for agentic AI employment in marketing

When any company decides to employ new digital tools, especially one like agentic AI which is still in its infancy, it's important to set some clear parameters for how it will be used within your processes.

1. Start with clear boundaries. Define explicit parameters for the agentic AI's decision-making authority, gradually expanding them as trust developed.
2. Maintain human oversight. While agentic AI operates autonomously, you should establish regular review protocols and approval thresholds for major changes.
3. Focus on transparency. Make sure you can explain the AI's decisions in business terms that marketers could understand and evaluate.
4. Invest in team adaptation. Devote resources to helping marketers develop new skills for collaborating effectively with AI systems.

We'll look at specific examples of how these intelligent agents are bringing innovation to fields like healthcare and manufacturing. And we'll examine the possibilities alongside the challenges. Then you'll be set to leverage agentic AI for both competitive advantage and lasting growth.

Types of agentic AI systems: A comprehensive overview

Agentic AI represents a leap in artificial intelligence: autonomous systems that don't merely follow instructions but independently perceive, decide, and act with minimal human oversight. At their heart, these systems use advanced algorithms to learn from and adapt to their environments.

One example that dramatically brings this home is the way two AI agents can now talk to each other in "Gibberlink Mode," a protocol tailored for machine efficiency that enables AI-to-AI interactions. The fact that they communicate in a language that humans can't understand, however, raises questions involving control, ethics, and security.

Developers have created different types of agentic AI systems with specific capabilities and purposes in mind. Let's look at the major categories of these AI applications and systems and what makes each distinct.

Reactive agents

Reactive agents, the simplest form of agentic systems, operate based on the current state of their environment without maintaining memory of past states or actions.

These systems follow a direct stimulus-response model, matching specific situations to specific actions. Think of them as implementing sophisticated "if-then" rules, like a chess-playing program that evaluates the current board state to select a move without explicitly planning multiple steps ahead through internal modeling.

Model-based agents

Model-based agents maintain an internal representation (or model) of their environment, allowing them to understand how their actions affect the world around them. This internal model enables them to predict potential outcomes before acting. These agents excel in complex, dynamic environments where understanding causal relationships is crucial — like controlling an autonomous vehicle.

Goal-based agents

Rather than simply responding to their environment, like model-based agents, goal-based agents continuously evaluate how different actions might help them achieve specific objectives. They can use means-end predictive analytics to consider actions will lead to desired outcomes.

Utility-based agents

Utility-based agents refine the goal-based approach by measuring the desirability of different states. Instead of viewing goals as binary (achieved or not), these systems can evaluate how preferable one outcome is compared to another. A financial trading agent, for example, would go beyond a goal of "make money." A sophisticated utility function could  balance potential returns against risk exposure, liquidity constraints, and diversification principles.

Learning agents

Learning agents incorporate mechanisms to improve their performance over time based on experience. They modify their internal models, decision processes, or evaluation criteria as they interact with their environment.

A recommendation system is an example of this approach. Initially, it might make suggestions based on general patterns, but as it observes user interactions, it refines its understanding of individual preferences to provide increasingly personalized recommendations.

Multi-agent systems

In multi-agent systems, AI-powered autonomous agents interact within a shared environment. These agents may cooperate toward common goals, compete for resources, or engage in mixed strategies with both cooperative and competitive elements.

Smart traffic management systems demonstrate this approach, with individual intersection controllers coordinating to optimize overall traffic flow while each manages its local conditions. Coordinated behavior of multiple agents works better than centralized control.

Hybrid architectures

In practice, many sophisticated agentic systems employ hybrid architectures that combine elements from multiple categories. These systems might use different approaches for different aspects of their operation or switch between modes based on context.

Real-world applications of agentic AI

Agentic AI isn't just changing industries — it's helping to reinvent them. Here are two examples of how these intelligent systems are being applied.

GE Healthcare has leapt into agentic AI with cloud-related research and development efforts. Their "Health Companion" project explores whether an agentic AI approach driven by multiple agents, each an expert in a particular area (i.e., genomics, radiology, pathology), could help physicians streamline their clinical decision-making and deliver more personalized care. Their vision for the project is for these agents to collaborate and analyze multi-modal data in order to proactively generate treatment plan recommendations, continuously adapting based on new information.

Toyota is one manufacturing company that's been raising operational efficiency with agentic AI. Its “O-Beya" system draws on design data from real-life engineers and other sources to inform nine specialized AI agents. If, for example, a car designer asked O-Beya how to make a car run better, an "engine agent" might give an answer related to engine output while a "regulatory agent" provides an answer on limits to emissions, which O-Beya would then consolidate into a single reply. 

What is agentic AI's future

We can expect agentic AI to become more integrated into business strategy, but ethical considerations and regulatory frameworks will be critical for its responsible development and scalability. Here are just a few things you can anticipate in the development of agentic AI:

• Increased automation. AI will handle more complex, real-time tasks across sectors like marketing, healthcare, finance, risk management, and autonomous driving.
• Personalization & interactivity. Expect more adaptive, human-like AI that personalizes interactions in areas like virtual assistants, e-commerce, and education. AI will increasingly understand and respond to human emotions, making interactions more natural and useful.
• AI ethics and governance. As AI autonomy grows, there will be a stronger push for ethical guidelines, regulation, and making sure AI aligns with human values to avoid harmful outcomes. AI content generators themselves have already run into some ethical snags in education, as students use AI generators to complete assignments.

Rellify's AI difference

Rellify will continue evolving alongside agentic AI technology, harnessing it to help businesses find topics and create content that resonates with their target customers.

As we have seen, part of agentic AI involves one model thinking about how to solve a problem and then asking other models to go solve it. In a sense, that's what a Relliverse™ does for our clients. It "thinks" about the content opportunities and then prompts another model to capture them. ‍With a custom Relliverse™, you can leverage deep learning, machine learning and AI research to change the way you plan, write, and distribute content.

By Jayne Schultheis — As AI-powered language learning models improve at a rapid pace, many businesses are integrating AI-generated content into their processes. Others are waiting to see if that content is worthwhile. AI-generated content might seem like a time-saver for businesses that lack the resources to employ human writers. However, it comes with many caveats and limitations, most notably, AI content quality.

In this article, we'll take a closer look at the effectiveness, creativity, and authenticity of AI versus human content, providing insights into maintaining editorial standards and consumer trust.

Understanding AI-generated content: The mechanisms at play

AI-generated content is text produced through the use of advanced technologies, including machine learning and natural language processing. These technologies allow systems to analyze vast datasets and learn linguistic patterns and contextual nuances. As of 2025, AI can generate coherent and contextually relevant content when given a great prompt. To effectively integrate AI into their content strategies, businesses need to understand its foundational mechanisms.

Machine learning (ML) in AI-generated content

Machine learning is a subset of AI that involves training algorithms to recognize patterns in data and make predictions or decisions based on that data. In the context of AI-generated content, ML helps models learn from vast amounts of text data and improve their ability to generate relevant and meaningful content over time. The key ML techniques used in AI content generation include:

• Training on large datasets. Machine learning models, particularly deep learning models (e.g., transformers), are trained on huge datasets that include books, articles, websites, and other forms of human-written text. This training enables the model to learn grammar, syntax, tone, context, and even specific domains or styles of writing.
• Reinforcement learning. This technique can be used to refine the output of a content-generating model based on feedback. For example, the model could be rewarded for generating content that aligns with specific goals, such as clarity, accuracy, or relevance to a topic.
• Fine-tuning. After the base model is trained on general data, it can be fine-tuned on specific types of content (e.g., scientific papers, marketing copy) to improve its performance for certain applications.

Natural language processing (NLP) in AI-generated content

NLP is a subfield of AI that focuses on the interaction between computers and human language. It allows machines to understand, interpret, and generate human language in a way that is both meaningful and contextually appropriate. In the generation of content, NLP allows AI to produce coherent, grammatically correct, and contextually accurate text. The main components of NLP that facilitate AI-generated content include:

• Tokenization. Breaking down text into smaller units like words or phrases, which allows the AI to process and understand the structure of language.
• Syntax and grammar parsing. The AI uses syntactic rules to structure sentences properly, ensuring they adhere to grammar conventions and sound natural.
• Named entity recognition (NER). Identifying and categorizing entities like people, places, organizations, and dates within the text. This helps the AI generate content that is contextually aware and relevant.
• Contextual understanding. Modern NLP models, like GPT, leverage large-scale transformers that can capture long-term dependencies and nuances in language. This allows them to generate text that flows logically and coherently, maintaining the context across long passages.
• Sentiment analysis. This technique helps the AI detect the emotional tone of the text and adapt its output accordingly, which is especially useful for tasks like content marketing or social media posts, where tone is critical.

Together, machine learning and natural language processing work to produce "natural language generation," or NLG.

What to consider when looking at AI content quality

While you might think that AI-generated content will save you loads of time and money, it's not without shortcomings. Here are some of the main pitfalls and pain points that marketers should keep in mind if they plan on using AI-generated content.

Accuracy

Accuracy is a huge concern for any marketer using AI-generated content. Even ChatGPT includes a disclaimer at the bottom of the page that says: "ChatGPT can make mistakes. Check important info." It should also be noted that most content generators are unable to produce verifiable facts, peer-reviewed studies, and well-sourced statistics. And great content that wins reader trust and builds authority provides verifiable, accurate information.

Plagiarism presents a major ethics concern for those who rely on AI-generated content, especially since AI content generators are known to scrape information from sources without giving proper credit. Human oversight through proofreading and fact-checking should be a crucial part of content processes that rely on automation.

Generative AI models might also exhibit biases, whether held by the company that owns it, or by the data that it was trained on. If you're going to rely on AI-generated content, it's crucial to have a critical eye for these types of biases and prejudices, and make sure that you're not exacerbating them.

Effectiveness

While entirely AI-generated content sounds like convenient resource for a business with limited resources, it has its caveats. Most AI-generated content can't seamlessly integrate SEO keywords into its copy. Human writers have a unique ability to integrate certain words based on semantic understanding and creativity, and AI is confined to its algorithmic capacities. And if your long-form content isn't SEO-optimized with great keywords, it won't reach your target audience. Not only that, AI-powered NLGs often favor certain phrases and organizational structures for writing that might not match your company's vision. A lack of consistency between your content and your target audience could make it more difficult for users to organically find your website through search engines.

Efficiency

While AI can generate content in mere seconds, if you have to go back and check facts, humanize the tone, and re-word your text to better match your brand, how much time and money are you really saving? Use of AI-generated content still requires a knowledgable expert to create the prompts, and eventually, review and edit the content. This is crucial as you're deciding how to allocate your resources when you decide to use AI.

How to reach your customers with AI-generated content

AI-generated content is continuously being refined during the current digital transformation. However, you still need the intelligence of a writer or editor who can plan, edit, and make good content great. Here are some tips for content management that will help you navigate the world of AI-content generation.

Define your target audience, topics, and keywords

Before creating AI-generated content, identify your target audience's needs, pain points, and interests. What questions do they ask? What problems do they need to solve? This will help you choose the right keywords and structure your content effectively.

Use tools like Rellify, Google Keyword Planner, and Ahrefs to find relevant keywords, focusing on a combination of short-tail (broad) and long-tail (more specific) keywords. AI tools can suggest semantically related keywords that help improve relevance and ranking.

Rellify rises above other tools in this category, as it uses machine learning and AI to find topics and keywords. In the Rellify platform, once you have your topics and keywords ready, you can create content that comes with real-time feedback on improving SEO. You can even use our AI support feature to help you get started, whether that's suggesting headlines, continuing text, or writing meta descriptions.

Provide value

Even though AI can generate content quickly, make sure it adds real value for your readers. Content should be useful, informative, and answer specific questions or solve problems that your audience is searching for. Pay special attention to user intent as you curate content, focusing on the "why" behind each search query.

Optimize length and depth

Aim for comprehensive, in-depth content (around 1,500–2,500 words) that covers a topic thoroughly. Long-form content often performs better in search rankings, but be sure to keep it engaging and not verbose. Generative AI will often use the same repetitive phrases or even cover the same points over and over.

One of the best ways you can use AI in your processes is by asking for a comprehensive outline. AI tools can be especially helpful in structuring heading, subheadings, and bullet points to break it down for readers. Rellify's AI tools can quickly generate an outline based on your chosen keywords and phrases.

Focus on originality

While AI can generate content efficiently, make sure the content is unique. Plagiarism can hurt SEO rankings. Use tools like Copyscape or Grammarly to check for originality before publishing. And again, a little bit of "humanization" can go a long way when it comes to user experience. Readers want to know that someone cared enough about the topic to take some time to speak to them about it. In the words of one of my colleagues, "why would I want to read something that no one could be bothered to write?"

As you're looking for ways to "humanize" your text and set it apart, consider including:

• Statistics relevant to your industry
• Case studies and testimonials
• Interesting and relevant facts
• Information about your unique product or services
• Stellar photos and/or graphics
• Colloquial phrases or humor that aligns with your brand's style

Optimize your SEO

We've talked a lot about "humanizing" but now we're going to talk about "Google...izing," that is, optimizing your content for search engines.

• Title tag. Craft an engaging, keyword-rich title that is both informative and compelling. Ideally, include your primary keyword at the start of the title.
• Meta description. Write a concise meta description (150–160 characters) that includes your target keywords. This won’t directly affect rankings but can influence click-through rates.
• Header tags (H1, H2, H3). Use header tags to structure your content logically. The H1 tag should typically contain the main keyword and summarize the topic. H2 and H3 tags should break down the content into digestible subsections.
• URL structure. URLs should be simple, short, and include relevant keywords.
• Alt text for images. If you include images, make sure to add descriptive, keyword-rich alt text. AI can sometimes miss this, but it's essential for accessibility and SEO.
• Linking. Link to other relevant pages or blog posts within your website. This helps improve user experience and increases time on site. It also helps search engines crawl your site more effectively. You should also link to authoritative external sources where relevant, such as studies, research papers, or high-quality articles from well-known websites. Finally, acquire hyperlinks from other well-respected websites to your own site. These links, called backlinks or inbound links, indicate to search engines that your website is reputable, trustworthy, and authoritative. Backlinks are a ranking factor for Google SERPs and obtaining them is known as "link-building."

These are just a few elements of SEO optimization, but you can find lots more information on Rellify's blog about how to improve your content by following some best practices.

The future of AI content quality

In the next few years, we're likely going to see rapid improvements in AI content quality. Platforms will be capable of generating content that is more creative, engaging, and personalized to individual user needs.

However, human oversight will remain crucial for authenticity, originality, and ethical use. Ultimately, AI's role in content creation will be collaborative — enhancing human creativity, streamlining processes, and helping businesses to scale their content strategies more efficiently.

Rellify is on the cutting edge of AI integration in a few different ways. Most notably, with a custom Relliverse™, you can better understand your company, topics, and content with a few clicks. With AI integration in topic clustering, you'll always know what to write about and how to write it so your content will be found by your target audience. Ready to find out more?

Understanding AI content generators

These sophisticated tools leverage advanced algorithms to produce text that mimics human writing. By using machine learning and natural language processing, they can understand context, tone, and style. OpenAI is the creator of perhaps the most well-known conversational content generator model, ChatGPT. But plenty of other models have been created. They have been trained on different data sets, but have the same underlying technology and mechanisms.

AI content generators are a versatile solution for creating different types of content — from short, quippy marketing copy to long-form articles packed with helpful information. Savvy businesses can streamline their content production processes, saving both time and resources for everyone working at the company. This adaptability makes AI content generators valuable to anyone who wants to maintain a competitive edge in the world of online marketing.

The technology behind AI content generators

AI content generators rely on the synergy of machine learning and natural language processing. This combination enables AI systems to analyze vast datasets, comprehend linguistic nuances, and generate content that closely resembles human writing. Let's look more closely at each element.

Natural language processing

Natural language processing (NLP) is a tool that uses computer science, AI concepts, linguistics, and data to allow computers to analyze human language — both written and verbal. It converts written or spoken words into data and makes it possible for devices to communicate with each other.

These connected devices have changed our world — think of Amazon's "Echo Dot," for example. "Alexa" uses NLP to analyze voice-based  prompts, then uses that information to carry out instructions. That might be turning on the lights or adding to your grocery list. Other services and devices that use NLP include: chatbots (query management), climate control devices (thermostats), and home monitoring devices (security systems).

We may not be aware that the response to our inquiry is generated by an algorithm, the driving force behind NLP, but it is. NLP allows computers to analyze vast amounts of data from chatbots, social media posts, documents,  webpages, and other sources.

Machine learning

Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence that involves computers' ability to learn by analyzing data and past experiences without explicit programming. Computers use algorithms to find patterns within and from data to solve problems and make predictions.‍

‍In a typical day, the average person might use a few different machine learning systems. These could be simple, utility-based applications, like using a Roomba vacuum to clean a room. Or you could use machine learning for more complex tasks, like asking ChatGPT to give you a dairy-free recipe for snickerdoodle cookies.

AI content generators and their impact on content creation

Anyone who's worked in SEO can tell you that creating great longform content that organically resonates with both search engines and readers is no simple task. You need an extensive understanding of your target reader, how they prefer to ingest content, and what topics they're most interested in. This can feel overwhelming, especially without a large team of staff writers who have extensive knowledge of a target industry.

AI content generators significantly help with efficiency, scalability, and quality by automating the writing of high-quality material at scale. They can rapidly produce articles, blog posts, product descriptions, and other forms of content. That means reduced time and effort required for human writers. Businesses can generate large volumes of content quickly without sacrificing quality.

AI tools can also be fine-tuned to match specific tones, styles, and even industry nuances. When used effectively, AI-driven content generation means companies can quickly adapt to changing demands or create personalized, relevant content for various audience segments — all with less money, time, and effort.

The future of AI content generators

If you've been paying attention, you've seen that AI content generators have improved quite a bit since their inception. Ten years ago, barely anyone had even heard of the technology, and now it's everywhere. Since the nature of this technology is adaptive, it's going to continue to be refined, both by self-learning and by input from users. Let's look at some other ways we can expect AI content generators to evolve.

Integration with existing platforms and tools

AI content generators can be seamlessly integrated with lots of platforms and tools  —  whether it's a CMS, a grammar checker, or customer relationship management software. This allows users to generate or refine content directly within their current environment without needing to switch between multiple applications. Moreover, AI content generators can sync with data analytics platforms and SEO tools, providing real-time insights to optimize content for search engines or audience engagement. Rellify integrates AI content generation directly into our platform, which means you can streamline your entire content creation process, and automate the aspects you want.

Trends and innovations

You might have heard of "hyper-personalization" in the context of marketing. This is the practice of tailoring marketing messages, products, services, and experiences to individual consumers based on their preferences, behaviors, and demographics. It goes beyond traditional personalization by leveraging real-time advanced data analytics and AI algorithms to create customized and relevant interactions with customers.

Businesses can use this marketing strategy with AI content generation to deliver curated content, customized products, and tailor-made product recommendations and services. They also can use it for targeted customer support through an AI chatbot. 

McKinsey talks about customer care as the crucial missing piece that bridges the gap between hyper-personalization through AI and customer trust, calling it "proactive, predictive service." With the application of AI in customer care, its very nature changes from reactive to proactive. Companies will be better able to anticipate customer needs and resolving issues before they arise.

Challenges of AI content generators

As AI content generators become integral to business strategies, ethical considerations and challenges emerge. After all, humans have a much firmer grasp on the concept of nuance, personality, and creativity than machines do. How do you mitigate those concerns as you use this kind of technology?

Quality control

To maintain quality control while using AI content generators, implement robust monitoring and feedback systems. Leverage user insights and performance metrics to refine AI outputs to more closely align with your target audience's expectations. The more data you put into your AI content generator, the better your output will be.

But even if you implement all the data you have on your customers' preferences and your company's branding, you might still end up with content that sounds a bit ... algorithmic. Until AI reaches its next phase of performance, use AI content generators as a content tool rather than an employee. That is — use AI content generators to help brainstorm ideas, build outlines, or build a foundation for your content that's ultimately refined by human intelligence. Every piece of content you put out should be edited and revised by one or more writers or editors.

Environmental concerns

The conversation around AI has veered into ethical concerns regarding energy consumption, carbon emissions, and resource usage. Training large-scale AI models, especially a language model like GPT-4, requires significant computational power. This process often involves powerful data centers running thousands of GPUs (Graphics Processing Units) or TPUs (Tensor Processing Units) for days or weeks, consuming large amounts of electricity.

Once trained, AI models also require energy during inference (when the model generates responses or content). Although the energy required for inference is typically lower than for training, large-scale usage can still add up, increasing the carbon footprint of these operations.

The question arises about whether the environmental costs of training and deploying these models are justifiable given the benefits of AI content generation, such as enhanced efficiency and scalability. Additionally, if AI tools are used in ways that generate massive amounts of content (like spam or low-quality material), the environmental impact may be disproportionate to the value created.

To address these concerns, many organizations are now prioritizing sustainable AI practices, including using AI to optimize energy usage, reduce waste, and find solutions for climate change. The AI community is exploring how to balance technological advancements with environmental sustainability.

What does the post-DeepSeek era of AI mean for marketers?

I’m still replying to texts from colleagues (and friends, and family members) about DeepSeek’s breakthrough last week, and what it means for the future of artificial intelligence in the Valley. Our data scientists and ML engineers are busy testing DeepSeek, as we do all major models; so this week, I thought we should discuss a more specific piece of that question:

What does the post-DeepSeek era of AI mean for marketers?

First and foremost, we now know the cost of compute power using LLMs is no longer a key budgeting issue. This was enforced days after the news broke, when researchers at UC Berkeley were able to create a small scale reproduction of DeepSeek — for just $30 in compute costs! Of course the final training run for a small scale model build like this (or even DeepSeek's reported $6M cost) is just a fraction of the total infrastructure and R&D costs to catch up with the current market leaders; however, the main point here is the models themselves are rapidly being commoditized.

I'm seeing first-hand the rapidly growing cost effectiveness of LLMs at my own company: In just the last year, our model training costs have been cut in half.

This macro trend probably represents the imminent end of Google Search as we’ve known it over the last 25 years. Now that we can very affordably apply LLMs for most search requests, human use of Google-style landing pages rapidly dissipates. I think it’s likely up to 80 percent of classic Google search queries will be replaced by new AI-agent based search experiences over the next few years.

And these cost savings are particularly exciting for digital marketing with startups and smaller companies. Without having to pay exorbitant computing costs, they can better compete with larger companies, creating LLM–powered content, analysis, and marketing research plans with modest budgets.

The lessening of cost considerations also suggests that marketers should no longer treat AI as a “nice to have if we can afford it” side tool, but as an essential part of their work. Here’s why:

Content Marketing in the Era of Agentic Workflows

With LLM computing costs decreasing, the emerging opportunity for marketers goes far beyond content creation and summarization. My advice is they look into the potential of agentic AI workflows. Instead of using a single LLM for generating outcomes from direct prompts, agentic workflows ask a reasoning AI how it would solve a particular problem – and also, to ask other more specialized AI to solve it.

Agentic workflows can help marketers better and more comprehensively collect customer insights into their audience and their competitors, along with the strength of their content strategies and business intelligence. And in a refreshing break from the SEO era search terms / web analytics mindset, we’re able to explore the market using more natural language definitions and topics analysis, and find breakout trends. And post-DeepSeek, do so at increasingly reduced cost, and with specialized vertical market applications!

At Rellify, we've developed a platform that automatically generates company-specific machine learning-based models with deep knowledge of relevant topics which in turn are used to prompt LLMs. This way, our customers can focus more on the strategic questions like what topics to cover and differentiate their offering ---- focusing the power of LLMs in the creative process to help generate relevant content.

This approach has repeatedly led to our customers' content investments driving visibility in both AI and classic SEO search results, because our vertical models identify what topics matter -- what are the relevant natural language questions that quality content should address -- not just what keywords drive the most search volume.

All of the above is not to imply Google Search and the company's search algorithms are going away, I should add; data analytics around Google’s web index is still important for marketers working with LLMs; my own company uses it as a the best approximation of audience interest. It’s just that we should expect it to become less important – especially when building our marketing / content strategies.

As for our company, Rellify, we have been planning for the time when OpenAI is no longer the undisputed industry leader in LLM models. I believe I’m not the only one glad to say that time is now.

By Jayne Schultheis — A great website structure involves more than just looking good — it's a crucial factor in boosting your SEO performance. The architecture of your website directly impacts how easily search engines crawl and index your content, which in turn influences your rankings.

In this article, we’ll explore why website structure is an essential part of search engine optimization and how you can optimize your website to improve visibility, user engagement, and search engine rankings.

Website structure defines user experience

A well-designed site that provides useful and engaging content will encourage visitors to stay longer, reducing bounce rates and giving your site a better chance to draw attention.

How do you use site structure to boost traffic and gather leads? What are the crucial elements that signal to both search engines and readers that you're a trustworthy and authoritative resource in your industry? We'll share a number of clear and effective ways to improve your content creation and web design. Let's call it a "UX design for SEO best practices" checklist for a site audit.

UX and URL best practices

When you're building an effective website, put yourself in the perspective of a site visitor who knows nothing about your site or products. In general, URLs should be:

• Clean
• Short
• Descriptive
• Keyword rich
• Representative of the site's page hierarchy. For example: https://rellify.com/blog/content-strategy-challenges.

When crafting a seamless user journey into and within your site, you'll want to implement:

• Main navigation (top-level pages). The most important pages of the site should be easily accessible from the homepage. Most sites use a navigation bar across the top of the homepage that leads to product and service pages, contact page, about the company page, and others. The “hamburger,” which is three lines in the upper left corner of the site, the vertical bar, and the vertical drop-down bar are ways to offer vertical navigation bars that are useful on mobile devices.
• Categories and subcategories. Use categories, subcategories, and sub-subcategories to group related content logically, making it easier for search engines to crawl and understand.
• Breadcrumb navigation. Organize your URLs so that wherever visitors are on your site, they can see the path back to the home page. This technique takes its name from trail of breadcrumbs Hansel and Gretel left behind them to find their way home — although breadcrumb navigation works much better. Every page on your site should have an icon that can be clicked to return to the home page. Even so, this arrangement of URLs allows search engines and readers to see how your site is organized. You can see the site's content hierarchy, and the URLs provide information in search results that help to improve click-through rates.
• Clear call to action (CTA). Each page should have a clear CTA to guide users toward completing an action, improving engagement and conversions.
• Search functionality. A well-functioning internal search tool can help users quickly find content. Be sure to index all relevant pages for search results.

Dynamic URLs with unnecessary parameters (e.g., domain.com/page?id=12345) are less SEO-friendly than static URLs, so avoid them if you can.

Let's look at an example of how to structure your URLs. Imagine you're a consulting firm named "Silverstone Strategy Group." You want to add a blog section to your website to capture more foot traffic from search engines. You call that blog section "Insights" and one subsection of the blog is a collection of articles on corporate leadership development. The focus keyword of the latest article is "online seminars and conferences." In that case, a great URL structure would look like this:

www.silverstonesg.com/insights/leadership-developement/online-seminars-and-conferences

Internal linking

When you have lots of great content that shows off your expertise, you want your readers (and search engines) to know that they don't have to leave your website to find what they're looking for. That's where internal links can help. They can encourage a reader to click into another page. This gives you another chance to show a Call to Action and book them as a customer. Here are some best practices for the use of internal linking.

• Anchor text. Choose descriptive anchor text that accurately reflects the content on the linked page. Use keywords and page titles as anchor text to make the relevance clear to readers and bots.
• Link distribution. Important pages (e.g., cornerstone content or pillar pages) should have the most internal links pointing to them.
• Contextual linking. Link from one page to another that will shed more light on the subject or provide more context. For example, from this article on UX and SEO through site structure, we can contextual linking to connect readers with an article in this blog about link-building and one on how to design a user experience. The first one adds context for this paragraph and subsection on linking. The second one adds context for this article about improving the UX experience. This form of linking  improves the flow of link equity and content relevance.

Mobile-friendly design

The percentage of web traffic that comes from mobile devices has steadily increased every year since smartphones hit the scene. As a result, Google has consistently prioritized mobile-friendliness and uses mobile-first indexing. It bases indexing and ranking on the mobile version of websites. Here are some tips for being mobile friendly.

• Responsive design. The site should use responsive design, which enables it to adjusts seamlessly to screens of any size. They load quickly and look good on smartphones, personal computers and everything in between.
• Page speed optimization. Slow-loading pages ruin the user experience. Minimize heavy images, use browser caching, and compress files to improve loading times.
• Server performance. Make sure your hosting provider offers reliable performance with minimal downtime.
• Image optimization. When you reduce file sizes, you can get faster load times and smoother user experiences on mobile devices with varying screen sizes and network speeds.

Clean and crawlable code

What exactly is "crawlability? To put it simply, search engines have bots they send out to look through websites' code and content, then report their findings. They register many different aspects of your site, but if your code isn’t "clean" enough it impedes the bots and your rankings may suffer.  That's why your site's code architecture is crucial. Here are some aspects of coding to keep in mind as you're looking at the more technical aspects of your site's SEO.

• Well-formatted HTML. Use clean, semantic HTML that is easy for search engine crawlers to read.
• XML sitemap. Create and submit an XML sitemap to help search engines discover and index pages more effectively.
• Robots.txt file. Use the robots.txt file to manage which pages should or shouldn’t be crawled by search engines.
• Canonical tags. Use canonical tags to avoid duplicate content issues. They tell search engines which version of a page is the preferred one.
• Security. Google favors secure websites (HTTPS) over non-secure ones (HTTP). SSL certificates ensure that the website is encrypted and secure for users, which also helps in ranking.
• Alt tags for images. Use descriptive alt attributes for all images to ensure search engines understand their context.
• Structured data (schema markup). Think of structured data like a map key for search engine crawlers. It gives them a shortcut to understanding your content. It also helps rich snippets (star ratings, product info, etc.) to appear in search results, increasing visibility and click-through rates.

404 pages and redirects

Sometimes, website maintenance or migration can cause snags in your user experience and a dip in traffic. Redirects help prevent this.

• Custom 404 page: Provide a user-friendly custom 404 error page to help users find what they’re looking for if they encounter a broken link. You can even get fun and creative with them.
• 301 redirects: When a page is moved, a permanent 301 redirect should be set up from the old URL to the new URL to pass SEO value and prevent broken links.

By Jayne Schultheis — If you've ever wondered why your content isn't hitting the mark, you may have some unseen challenges that are preventing the content from reaching your goals. This article offers practical solutions to the many hurdles content marketers face. Together, let's look at how to set the stage for content success by catching potential pitfalls before they affect your bottom line.

Understanding Content Strategy Challenges

The best way to prevent setbacks is to anticipate challenges before they arise.

Understanding your audience

Among the 22% of B2B marketers who said their organization is very or extremely successful, 79% of these top performers most often attribute their success to knowing their audience. But when you think about all the people who could potentially be your "audience," it's easy to get overwhelmed. Who are they? What are their shopping habits? Where are they spending their time online? What kind of budget do they have? There are a million questions you could ask, and answering them involves serious market research. From those insights, along with a thorough analysis of existing customers, you should develop a few different buyer personas — that is, detailed descriptions of your ideal, target customer. When you're trying to find that ideal customer, try using A/B testing to narrow the groups down.

Finding the right marketing channels

This can be a complex challenge, especially given the diversity of platforms available. With each channel catering to different audience demographics and content types, it can be difficult to determine where to invest time and resources. Marketers must consider factors such as audience preferences, engagement levels, and the nature of their content. And this must be done in the ever-evolving landscape of social media, blogs, email, and emerging platforms. Snags in channel selection can lead to ineffective campaigns, wasted budgets, and missed opportunities for engagement.

To choose the right content marketing channels, marketers should start by clearly defining their target audience and understanding where that audience spends their time. Conducting audience research through surveys, social media analytics, and competitor analysis can provide valuable insights into preferred platforms and content consumption habits. You can also test different channels through pilot campaigns to help identify which ones yield the best results.

It’s also beneficial to consider the type of content being created. Visual content may perform better on platforms like Instagram or TikTok, while long-form articles might be more suitable for a company blog or LinkedIn.

Lack of clear goals

When surveyed, among the B2B marketers who said their organization is very or extremely successful, 68% of them attributed their success to content that aligns with the organization’s objectives. You might be confused, thinking, "Isn't my goal just to get people to to buy my product or services?" Yes, that's your over-arching goal. But there can be many steps along the way, including, but not limited to:

• Brand awareness
• Lead generation, conversions, and customer retention
• Customer engagement or education
• Increased website traffic
• Improved SEO rankings
• Establishing thought leadership

Inconsistent brand voice or tone

An inconsistent brand voice or tone can significantly undermine a content marketing strategy, creating confusion and diluting brand identity. When different pieces of content convey varying tones—whether overly formal, casual, humorous, or serious—it can lead to mixed messages that frustrate audiences. This inconsistency can make it difficult for customers to understand what the brand stands for. It weakens their trust and emotional connection. Over time, this can result in diminished brand loyalty as consumers struggle to recognize the brand in a sea of competing voices.

Moreover, an inconsistent brand voice can hinder marketing campaigns. Content that lacks a cohesive tone may fail to resonate with the target audience, resulting in lower engagement rates and missed opportunities for conversion. If a brand’s communication shifts erratically across different channels or campaigns, it may also create a fragmented customer experience, where individuals feel disconnected from the brand's values and messaging. Maintaining a consistent voice and tone is crucial for reinforcing brand identity, ensuring clarity, and fostering deeper relationships with audiences.

AI

One of the biggest content marketing challenges facing companies presently is how to incorporate artificial intelligence into their processes. Nearly half of content marketers use AI to brainstorm new topics and 46% use it to research headlines and keywords. More than one-third (36%) use AI tools for writing, though many feel conflicted about the idea. Companies and consumers alike are grappling with the ethics and practicality of AI in marketing.

But there's a lot more to AI than just hitting a button and generating text. AI can be used in countless ways throughout your processes, even in analytics. At Rellify, we've harnessed the power of AI to make topic and keyword research exponentially more effective. With a Relliverse™, customized for your brand, you can easily discover topics and keywords that are already doing well within your industry niche. Then, you can create content that's poised to climb the SERP rankings and be better found by your target audience.

Competitors

The digital landscape is saturated with content vying for audience attention. With countless brands producing similar types of content, it's hard to stand out. This saturation not only makes it challenging to capture potential customers' interest but also raises the stakes for quality and originality. Content marketers must consistently innovate and find unique angles to differentiate their messages. This requires a deep understanding of both their audience and their competitors’ strategies.

Additionally, competitors often engage in aggressive SEO tactics, making it harder for new or smaller brands to rank highly on search engines. They may also leverage social media and paid advertising more effectively. Content marketers must not only focus on creating high-quality content but also continuously monitor competitors’ activities, adapt to shifting trends, and invest in strategic promotion to maintain visibility in a crowded market.

A thorough competitor keyword analysis can also be a helpful strategy. This is the process of examining the keywords that your competitors target in their online content and SEO strategies. This helps you identify opportunities and threats in your own SEO strategy. A competitor keyword analysis can lead to a boost in your SEO when you successfully identify high-value keywords that your competitors are ranking for, then target similar terms with your own optimized content.

Tight budgets

Demand for high-quality content is high, but budgets are tight. Only 45% expect their content spend to ‌increase this year — a 13% drop from the 2023 survey. It's no secret that many companies are cutting their teams to skeleton crews and looking ways to save money. But when it comes to content marketing, you have to be careful where you cut corners.

A colleague of mine recently started a small business, and when asked how they intended to fill out their website with content, they said they asked ChatGPT for a list of topics and had it write the articles, too. This is an example of how you should not cut corners. Not only does a tool like ChatGPT lack the insights regarding SEO topics and keywords, it also generates its content based on pre-set algorithms and formulas. That sort of content is unlikely to ranked highly by search engines, nor ever be found and read.  

Marketers can adopt several strategies to maximize thin budgets, including:

• Prioritize content that offers the highest ROI, like evergreen pieces that remain relevant over time and user-generated content that leverages customer contributions.
• Repurpose existing content into different formats. For example,  turn a blog post into an infographic and cross-promote posts  on different platforms.
• Use cost-effective tools and platforms for content creation and distribution.
• Leverage organic social media reach.

Remember, the amount of time and effort you put into making content will be reflected in your returns.

Understanding and managing analytics

Analytics are a huge part of a healthy content strategy. They can help you zero in on what's working, what isn't working, and how to modify your strategy to improve your ROI.

While eight in 10 content marketers use content analytics to decide what to create, three-quarters of them aren’t sure of how that content performs. Interpreting vast amounts of data and translating insights into actionable strategies is a huge task. Without a solid grasp of data interpretation, marketers risk making decisions based on incomplete or misleading information, which can lead to ineffective campaigns and wasted resources.  

To tackle these challenges, marketers can leverage a variety of user-friendly analytics tools that simplify data analysis and visualization. Google Analytics is a powerful option for tracking website performance, providing insights into visitor behavior, traffic sources, and conversion rates. For social media analytics, platforms like Hootsuite or Buffer offer comprehensive dashboards that allow marketers to monitor engagement metrics and audience demographics across multiple channels. Tools like HubSpot and Semrush provide integrated solutions for content performance tracking and SEO analytics.

Rellify can pull analytic insights on content performance directly into the platform after publishing so you can plan, write, monitor all in one place. By using the right tools and prioritizing ongoing education in data analysis, marketers can develop a more nuanced understanding of their performance metrics and make informed decisions.

Difficulty keeping up with changes in the market

Rapid shifts in consumer behavior, technology, and search engine algorithms require constant adaptation and agility. What worked yesterday in terms of content formats or distribution channels may quickly become outdated as new trends emerge or audience preferences evolve. Anyone who's keeping up with the recent innovations in AI can tell you that. Marketers must continuously monitor these changes and be willing to pivot strategies, which can strain resources and complicate planning.

Additionally, the proliferation of new platforms and tools can make it hard for marketers to determine where to focus their efforts. Marketers face the challenge of mastering various formats and integrating them into a cohesive strategy. This constant need for education, experimentation, and optimization can lead to burnout and frustration, especially for smaller teams or organizations with limited resources. Ultimately, success in this dynamic environment hinges on the ability to embrace change and leverage insights effectively while maintaining a clear vision and consistent brand messaging.

Ineffective content planning

Ineffective content planning can severely hinder a content marketer's ability to execute successful campaigns. Without a clear strategy, marketers may produce content that lacks focus, fails to address audience needs, or misses key deadlines. This disorganization can lead to inconsistent messaging, wasted resources, and missed opportunities for engagement. When content is created on an ad-hoc basis, it often lacks cohesion, which can confuse audiences and weaken brand identity.

To overcome these challenges, marketers should implement a structured content planning process that includes:

• Setting clear objectives and KPIs
• Identifying target audiences
• Developing a content calendar
• Setting editorial guidelines
• Establishing a workflow for the content lifecycle
• Potential for scalability

This type of roadmap will help you keep content aligned with the brand’s goals and schedule a campaign to maximize reach and engagement. Regularly reviewing and adjusting the content plan based on performance metrics can also help marketers stay agile and responsive to changing audience preferences.
