Adobe Customer AI assigns a personalized propensity score to every individual in a company's customer database, predicting how likely that person is to take a specific action — such as churning, buying, or clicking — within a set time window. These scores are used to target marketing campaigns more precisely.
Details
Customer AI uses machine learning to analyze Consumer Experience Event data and generate propensity scores at the individual profile level, rather than at an aggregate segment level. It surfaces the top factors influencing each prediction — for example, "this customer is more likely to churn because they haven't opened an email in 90 days." Scores are written back into Adobe Experience Platform profiles and can activate targeting in Adobe Target, Journey Optimizer, and Real-Time CDP. Adobe explicitly notes Customer AI is not designed for dynamic pricing or product recommendations.

Other practices by Adobe
OtherIn June 2024, Adobe pushed updated Terms of Use to all Creative Cloud users that required mandatory acceptance before they could continue using their software. The language alarmed many users and creative professionals who believed Adobe was claiming the right to use their personal work to train AI models. Adobe published clarifications and then released fully revised terms later that month.OtherAdobe InDesign version 21.2, released in January 2026, added an AI feature that automatically generates alt text — written descriptions of images used by screen readers to assist people who are blind or have low vision. The feature is on by default and has received mixed reactions from users about its accuracy.OtherAdobe has maintained a formal set of AI ethics principles since 2019, built around three pillars: Accountability, Responsibility, and Transparency. Every product team developing an AI feature must complete an internal AI Ethics Impact Assessment before launch. Adobe updated these principles in October 2024.
