LiveRamp, the leader in data collaboration, has introduced new agentic AI capabilities to its platform. These upgrades enable specialized AI agents to autonomously handle audience building, cross-media measurement, and media optimization, transforming fragmented marketing workflows into intelligent, governed execution.

Quick Intel

  • LiveRamp launches agent-powered access, allowing specialized AI agents to collaborate with partners for faster, governed marketing workflows across audience creation, performance measurement, and spend optimization.
  • Initial partners include SemantIQ for healthcare provider audience building and activation in clean rooms, and Newton Research for instant natural language measurement insights from Cross-Media Intelligence.
  • Enhanced lookalike modeling now leverages first-, second-, and third-party data to build and expand high-quality audiences with improved precision and scalability.
  • A unified identity-powered control group applies consistently across channels and surfaces, simplifying experimentation and measurement.
  • Marketers gain governed access to premium data and AI tools while aligning with organizational AI policies and provider guidelines.
  • These capabilities address key friction points in lookalike modeling—data quality, workflow complexity, and ecosystem connectivity—enabling stronger results and efficient scaling.

Enabling Autonomous, Partner-Powered Marketing

LiveRamp’s agentic upgrades build on earlier announcements by allowing customers to license and deploy partner AI agents directly within the platform. This central hub streamlines end-to-end marketing, from planning and audience construction to activation, measurement, and continuous optimization.

“We're making it possible for AI agents to do what marketers have been doing manually — build audiences, measure cross-media performance, and optimize spend — but faster and within the governed environment our customers already trust,” said Matt Karasick, Chief Product Officer at LiveRamp. “The agents from Newton Research and SemantIQ are live today, and they're the first of many partners we're bringing onto the platform.”

“LiveRamp and Newton Research have leaned in together to help marketers use AI to drive quantifiable performance increases, today,” said John Hoctor, CEO and Co-founder at Newton Research. “As Newton Research unlocks media performance gains from analytics with specially-trained intelligent agents, and LiveRamp streamlines adoption of these next-gen agents, every marketer will be able to easily tap the power of AI as part of their everyday workflows.”

Precision Growth Through Enhanced Data and Modeling

New tools enable marketers to create more accurate lookalike models by combining multiple data sources securely. This approach improves audience quality, reach, and engagement while maintaining privacy and compliance.

The platform also introduces a single, identity-powered control group that spans channels and surfaces, making experimentation more consistent and reliable. These features can be accessed directly or amplified through partner agents for greater speed and scalability.

“Building a strong identity foundation has given us confidence in the accuracy, completeness, and precision of our data. As we progress to applying AI‑powered lookalike modeling to scale reach for our suppliers and advertisers, we’re able to develop high‑quality models that help us identify the right audiences and engage them in the ways they want to be reached,” said Austin Leonard, VP and GM, DG Media Network.

“With data security and consumer privacy protected at every step, we can use AI and data collaboration to model, build, and recommend higher-quality audiences with confidence, driving stronger marketing results and enabling us to scale more efficiently,” said Thomas Atkins, Executive Director of Media, MGM Resorts International.

"Marketers have historically struggled with incorporating lookalike audiences due to three main friction points: data, workflow, and connectivity,” said Ananda Chakravarty, Research VP for Retail Insights at IDC. "With this release, LiveRamp addresses these factors by sourcing from first-, second-, and third-party data, adapting to workflows, and ensuring seamless connectivity and activation across the ecosystem, resulting in a marketer focused solution.”

LiveRamp continues to expand its agentic ecosystem, adding partnerships across audience planning, segmentation, optimization, and measurement categories.
