1. Audiense Insights: Select the number of clusters in your reports with our enhanced Affinities Segmentation (Beta) ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿคโ€๐Ÿง‘

We have released an improvement in the way that we segment our audiences inside Insights reports with our enhanced Affinities Segmentation ๐Ÿ’–

Our recent acquisition of Affinio has spurred us to elevate our Insights tool by integrating the finest features from both platforms. This enhancement is one of the ways we aim to consolidate key functionalities into a unified platform.

One of the main benefits of this enhancement is the freedom to select the number of clusters for segmentation ranging from 2 to 20, allowing for extra customization, which was one of the most requested features to be improved ๐ŸŽฏ
