I teamed up with Zsuzsa Kecsmar, Co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer at Antavo AI Loyalty Cloud , to talk about how to increase loyalty revenue by 4X by adding more engaged and VIP profiles ahead of BFCM 2025. Together with Mailability.io, we built a strategy that combines AI-powered loyalty + AI-powered email intent scoring to drive real Klaviyo revenue. Because here’s the thing: Most brands treat loyalty like a standalone program. But when it’s connected to Klaviyo and powered by intent data it becomes a scalable growth engine. Here’s the 3-step approach we mapped out: 👉 Use Antavo AI Loyalty Cloud to track loyalty tiers, reward history, referrals, and behavior, directly in Klaviyo 👉 Let Mailability.io assign real-time Intent Scores to every profile, so you know who to activate, upgrade, or re-engage 👉 Combine loyalty status + intent to trigger AI flows and campaigns that match real customer behavior What that unlocks: → Push VIPs to repurchase faster with tier-based incentives → Invite high-intent shoppers into your loyalty program at the perfect moment → Re-engage inactive members with personalized offers and AI-driven flows and campaigns The result? → Smarter audience targeting → Stronger pre-BFCM engagement → 4X+ loyalty revenue from your best customers If you’re planning to maximize retention and LTV this holiday season this one's worth a swipe. Full breakdown in the slides. Let’s make loyalty work harder. Want to learn more? → https://lnkd.in/dCdwyQ2d

We have been mapping the Israeli Generative AI landscape since ChatGPT came out more or less. In the latest version, published on Thursday, we've mapped 342 startups that collective raised over $20 billion. More than half of the new companies we've added this year possess agentic AI capabilities. Can Israeli startups compete globally in Generative AI? Absolutely. 🇮🇱 Israel is emerging as a global GenAI hub, with the highest AI talent concentration (Stanford 2024) and a culture of deep tech innovation. 📈 The number of GenAI startups has nearly doubled in a year 🔐 The categories that saw the most growth this year were cyber and healthcare, followed by LLM ops and marketing tools 💡 Global VCs (like Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital and Insight Partners) are doubling down on elite Israeli talent, while global R&D centres including NVIDIA are planning multi billion expansion plans in Israel. ⚙️ Despite global headwinds, the Israeli startup ecosystem is proving resilient, resourceful, and opportunity-driven—especially in tackling GenAI’s toughest challenges: privacy, cost, trust, and explainability. At Remagine Ventures we've made over 13 investments in GenAI startups at pre-seed are bullish on big wins ahead. Link to the landscape evolution in the first comment below 👇
