How It Works

This workflow automates personalized customer journeys by analyzing CRM data, purchase history, chat interactions, and performance metrics to intelligently route customer actions through multiple channels (email, SMS, retargeting) via AI-optimized schemas. A webhook trigger initiates the process by fetching CRM customer data, which is then merged with historical records and interactions. OpenAI builds comprehensive customer state profiles, enabling intelligent routing to appropriate channels using optimized journey logic. The system aggregates performance metrics in real-time and updates the database to maintain synchronized customer information across all systems.

Setup Steps

  1. Connect CRM credentials (source system)
  2. Add OpenAI API key for state builder
  3. Configure Gmail/SMS provider credentials
  4. Add Google Sheets connection for performance tracking
  5. Set Touchpoint Event Webhook URL
  6. Map database connection for customer state persistence
