Customer Studio is available as an add-on on Business tier plans.
Overview
Modern marketing teams coordinate omnichannel efforts in Hightouch by strategically building customer segments and activating them from their data warehouse to various destinations like Facebook, Iterable, Salesforce, Google, and more. When building large and complex audiences, it's often difficult to fully understand the users within the audiences.
Customer Studio's Audience Insights give marketing teams a clearer picture when creating or updating audiences. Customer Studio also provides an analytics suite for more in-depth analysis.
Customer Explorer
When building an audience, it's helpful to have concrete examples of what the audience members are like to ensure the audience you're building is the intended one. You can do this by selecting to Preview results to the right of your conditions. The preview gives you an overview of the audience and the ability to more closely inspect members.
The overview shows your audience size and a list of its members. If you've chosen to redact any columns in your model configuration, they are redacted here.
Clicking on a particular member gives you audience member details.
Overlaps
With many audiences syncing simultaneously, it can be difficult to ensure that end users aren't being targeted by multiple campaigns.
Overlaps helps marketers validate the composition of their audiences by providing them with feedback on an audience's composition as they define their desired segmentation in Hightouch.
