Product Highlight

No more no-reply@

We’re taking customer engagement to the next level with Attentive Concierge— a product that enables brands to deliver true conversational commerce experiences at scale, with personalized interactions. Attentive Concierge powered 2.1 million one-to-one conversations in 2022.

We also launched LiveSMS™, an extension of Attentive Concierge™ that replaces traditional chat by allowing shoppers to opt in to SMS and get real-time answers from live agents.

product highlight

Turning browsers into buyers with Text-to-Buy

We know that consumers are engaging in mobile shopping now more than ever, and that their experience is fraught with friction. That’s why we introduced Text-to-Buy with Shop Pay to remove the extra steps from subscribers’ path to purchase by allowing them to simply text a keyword to buy from a brand.
Product Highlight

New features to accelerate list growth and capture more data

Marketers are working harder than ever to engage and convert their customers. Helping them do so at every stage of the customer lifecycle is our top priority. That's why this year, we introduced new sign-up unit solutions—like Spin-to-Win and Preference Collection—to help brands grow their lists faster, and collect valuable first- and zero-party data from the get-go.

Culture

From #product-launches to #birdwatching

Attentive employees engaged in 2,900+ Slack channels, connecting on this year’s exciting projects. But we're not all work and no fun. Teammates also bond around the "virtual water cooler" in channels about shared interests—ranging from pets, to parenting, and everything in between. Some of our favorites include #birdwatchers, #worldtravel, and #boardgames.
Employee resource groups

Empowering our nine ERGs with AWAKE

We're committed to building a connected, inclusive, and diverse workplace. This year, we continued growing AWAKE, an employee-led collective to support our nine ERGs—including Continuum, our new Neurodiversity and Mental Health ERG. We’ve come together via Zoom for many informative and fun ERG-organized events this year—like cultural cooking classes, poetry readings, and fireside chats on community initiatives and awareness.
Contributions

Giving back to the community

Attentive employees have heart. This year, we rallied together to help with critical causes, and proactively created new donation campaigns to support the initiatives most important to them. Attentive matched $50,000+ in employee donations to nonprofits and charitable organizations.

Bring on the merch!

We dabble in the e-commerce world ourselves now with our Attentive Goods merch store. We got a little nostalgic for the 90s, teamed up with customers for some fun collabs, and restocked our fan favorites. Our best-selling products include the “You’re So Write” Pen Set and OOTD Sweatshirt. Explore the store and try our LiveSMS™ feature, powered by Attentive Concierge™, if you need any shopping support.
