How is AI personalisation different from segmentation?

Segmentation groups customers by demographic or behaviour, while AI personalisation creates unique experiences based on individual data and context.

What data do I need for personalisation?

Use first‑party data such as browsing behaviour, purchase history and email interactions; always ask for consent and store data securely.

How do I respect privacy and regulations?

Follow local data protection laws like Thailand’s PDPA, be transparent about data collection and allow users to opt out.

If you end up with something unexpected (whether that is brilliantly unexpected or amusingly terrible), we would genuinely love to see it.

Share your results, your variations, or the weird tangents you went down trying to get things just right. That is often where the best insights come from: the collective trial and error of people actually using these tools in practice.

And if you found this useful, we have got plenty more practical how-to guides covering everything from creating images for your blog to helping you automate boring work tasks. Each one is built the same way: real techniques, actual examples, no fluff.
