01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
Personify XP was a London-based AI personalisation platform founded in 2018 by Ben Mercer. It automated personalised experiences for anonymous website visitors — using visitor behaviour to identify the reason behind a visit and automatically optimising onsite content and products — claiming 15% more revenue and 35% higher conversion without requiring personal data. Its customers included brands such as Speedo, Boohoo, Farfetch, Ellesse, Hawes and Curtis and Finery London. It raised about $720,000 in total funding.
