AI-powered customer journey mapping, as of early 2026, leverages machine learning to analyse vast datasets of customer interactions – from website visits and social media engagement to support tickets and purchase history – to automatically identify patterns and build detailed journey maps.
- Predictive Journey Stages: Current systems include AI algorithms that predict likely customer journey stages based on behaviour, even for first-time visitors.
- Sentiment Analysis: AI now features advanced sentiment analysis of customer communications (emails, chat logs, social posts) to pinpoint pain points and moments of delight.
- Automated Persona Creation: AI can automatically segment customers into detailed personas based on shared behaviours and characteristics, optimising personalisation.
- Real-time Journey Updates: Platforms dynamically update journey maps as new data becomes available, providing a constantly evolving view of the customer experience.
In 2026, Australian businesses must also consider data privacy regulations like the updated Privacy Act, ensuring AI-driven analysis is compliant and anonymised where necessary. ROI.com.au’s platform is built with these considerations in mind, offering secure and compliant data processing for Australian SMEs. We also integrate with popular Australian CRM and marketing automation tools like HubSpot and Salesforce, streamlining data flow.
