Tare AI is joining Skio to enhance AI-powered subscriptions functionality!
Our Drive and Direction
At Skio, our core mission is to provide merchants with seamless and sensible
tools to expand their operations. That means pouring countless hours looking
into ways for us to rapidly iterate and innovate within e-commerce, and more
specifically within the retention space. Now more than ever, brands are
hyper-focused on building a sustainable business. That means no more only
using resources on pure customer acquisition but also building a long-term
retention strategy. We’re committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s
possible in retention, and that comes hand-in-hand with investing in
generative AI and staying on top of the cutting-edge of technology. With this
mission in mind, I am thrilled to announce that Skio is acquiring Tare, a
generative AI email marketing platform.
Revolutionizing Email Marketing with Tare
Email marketing is a key cornerstone of every scaling brand’s retention
strategy. Unfortunately, its importance does not come with a shortage of
headaches and challenges. Email marketing can be cumbersome,
resource-intensive, and difficult to automate as a brand grows. This is where
Tare comes in. We’ve been impressed with how Tare has helped top brands (e.g.
Perfect Foods, Droplette, Krave) generate on-brand, beautifully designed
emails. More importantly, Tare’s emails have supercharged brands’ retention
strategy, and they’ve seen time & costs go down by 200% while boosting
conversion by up to 3.3x.
Why Tare? The Expertise Behind the Innovation
The Tare team’s generative AI expertise are a key reason we are so excited to
be partnering together. Their founders, Max & Eileen are long-term friends
and partners of Skio and were both early employees at the company. The team’s
experience in the cross-section of e-commerce and LLM applications will help
us craft exciting new automation & products within subscriptions &
retention. Tare’s team of 5 have a strong technical background and are
bringing experience from companies such as Robinhood, Amazon, and Mailchimp.
The Future of Skio: Ambitious AI-Driven Plans
So what’s next for Skio? The burning question. In case you missed it, we
shipped AI-driven smart upsells, but we’re just getting started. With this
acquisition, we’re excited to dive headfirst into some ambitious initiatives
that our team has been ideating on, including:
- AI based forecasting of subscription revenue to help plan inventory
- AI based churn prevention features
- AI based fraud detection
- AI driven email campaigns for targeted winback
- And more
Our investment in generative and the future we believe in is just beginning.
