Cordial has launched two new AI agents as part of Cordial Agents, a system designed to automate core marketing execution and integrate real-time insights directly into live workflows. These production-grade agents address the persistent gap between abundant customer data and timely action, enabling marketers to anticipate and respond to intent without manual intervention.

  • Cordial introduces Email Production Agent and Data Intelligence Agent to handle real marketing work end-to-end inside the platform.
  • Agents eliminate manual tasks in email personalization, audience logic, orchestration, measurement, and performance monitoring.
  • Built with governed frameworks including explicit tools, quality checks, guardrails, and agent-to-agent collaboration for safe, scalable execution.
  • Tackles marketer challenges: 100% still rely on basic signals like clicks/opens, while only 34% of consumers feel brands understand their needs.
  • Focuses on fewer, deeper agents that execute production tasks rather than generate suggestions or drafts.
  • Early access waitlist now open at cordial.com/foundry for marketing teams.

Advancing AI-Driven Marketing Execution Cordial, a leader in enterprise messaging solutions, has unveiled Cordial Agents to bridge the divide between data insights and real-time marketing action. Current research highlights that marketers overwhelmingly use behavioral signals for inference rather than live execution, leading to misaligned campaigns and eroded customer trust. Cordial Agents shift this paradigm by operating as production systems within live environments, grounded in actual customer data, brand rules, and enforceable standards.

Email Production Agent: Automating Core Execution The Email Production Agent takes ownership of execution-intensive email marketing processes. It manages personalization at scale, builds sophisticated audience logic, orchestrates multi-message campaigns, and handles measurement—all using production-grade tools integrated directly into live workflows. Outputs are validated against real customer profiles prior to deployment, reducing errors and ensuring logic integrity before campaigns go live.

Data Intelligence Agent: Real-Time Insight and Action The Data Intelligence Agent continuously monitors campaign and audience performance in real time. It detects emerging trends, flags issues early, and surfaces actionable recommendations while campaigns remain active. By working from the same unified understanding of customer intent, it enables proactive adjustments that traditional approaches often miss due to delayed analysis.

Governed and Collaborative Framework Both agents operate within Cordial's controlled agent architecture, featuring built-in quality validation, controlled retries, and strict guardrails aligned with organizational standards. This minimizes risk while allowing continuous improvement. Agents share context and communicate directly with each other, and human marketers can intervene via briefs or artifacts to refine outcomes and maintain oversight.

"Most AI tools stop at suggestions," said Matt Howland, Chief Product Officer at Cordial. "We built Cordial Agents to do the work itself. They operate inside real marketing systems, with real data, rules, and guardrails, so teams can move from insight to action without adding manual steps, redundancies, or miscues."

Cordial's approach emphasizes depth over breadth: fewer agents with deep context and governed execution to remove duplicative manual work across marketing operations. The result is faster, more accurate delivery of relevant experiences that strengthen customer relationships.

Teams can join the waitlist for early access to Cordial Agents at cordial.com/foundry.
