Scribd—the digital reading company behind Everand, Slideshare, and Fable—set out to do more than attract new users. They wanted to keep readers engaged, turning first-time visitors into lifelong learners.But scaling personalized engagement across millions of readers and multiple brands was no easy read. Their data pipeline slowed every update, and launching new campaigns often meant weeks of back-and-forth between teams.That’s when Scribd rewrote the story with Iterable’s Smart Ingest, AI, and Embedded Messaging—transforming data challenges into moments of meaningful connection.Scribd cut weeks of manual data work, saving $91K a year and finally giving marketers instant access to the insights they needed—powered by a seamless Smart Ingest setup. Smarter, AI-powered journeys helped first-time readers become loyal subscribers in record time, proving that personalization at scale doesn’t have to slow teams down.

Marketers have been building journeys for years. Okay, maybe not for 84 years, but let’s be honest — it’s about time journeys start building themselves!In Step 2 of our Moments-Based Marketing series, we explored how to finally let those journeys build themselves, learning, adapting, and evolving with every customer action. Jeanette Woodburn (Senior Marketing Operations Manager, Iterable), Mara Cohen (CRM Manager, ATG Entertainment), and Steven Aldrich (SVP of Marketing Services, Ragnarok) revealed what happens when brands stop designing static workflows and start letting their journeys think for themselves.
