AI Emotion Engine

Zyft AI

An AI-powered system for delivering personalized emotional touchpoints — currently in a production phase with limited rollout, while stabilizing email delivery and scaling reliability.

Product Overview

Problem

  • Employee birthdays, festivals, and milestones often get missed due to manual tracking.
  • Creating personalized messages and visuals is time-consuming.
  • Generic mass emails feel transactional and reduce emotional connection.

What Zyft solves

  • Centralizes employee data to enable personalization at scale.
  • Generates AI-written messages and themed greeting visuals on demand.
  • End-to-end flow: employee data → personalized card → email delivery.

Current MVP — AI Greetings (Emotion Engine v1)

  1. Add employees (supports bulk import via CSV/XLSX).
  2. Occasion engine highlights today's birthdays and upcoming events.
  3. Select an occasion (Christmas, Diwali, New Year, Eid, etc.).
  4. AI generates a themed card image and personalized message (regen supported).
  5. Send to individuals or batch send via the email delivery pipeline.

Revenue Model

Core — Freemium → Premium

  • Free tier: basic templates, limited monthly sends
  • Premium: automation, advanced templates, analytics
  • Target pricing: $15–$25/mo per seat

Expansion — B2B / Enterprise

  • Target: companies running engagement programs
  • Value: higher retention, lower CAC via org-wide rollout
  • Target pricing: $2K–$5K/org/mo

$10K/month reference

300 Premium users × $20 ARPU = $6,000/month + 2 Enterprise clients × $2,000/month = $4,000/month → $10,000/month.
