Adobe recently announced the release of the B2B version of its Journey Optimizer, designed to leverage generative AI for improving enterprise marketing and sales efforts. This new version aims to assist companies in identifying and engaging the right decision-makers for substantial purchases, addressing a common challenge faced by sales and marketing teams who often struggle to connect with key stakeholders in the purchasing process.
The Adobe Journey Optimizer B2B (AJO B2B) is built on the Adobe Experience Platform, providing a comprehensive view of customers across various channels. The platform allows users to create buying groups, and organize customer data to better target their outreach.
The inclusion of generative AI enhances this process by recommending missing roles and team members, ensuring that the buying group lists are complete and accurate.
In addition to organizing customer data, AJO B2B helps marketers develop tailored marketing plans using AI-driven insights. Adobe’s AI assistant aids in crafting personalized sales pitches based on the identified buying groups.

Furthermore, the platform includes lifecycle management capabilities, enabling brands to initiate real-time interactions when key milestones, such as contract renewals, are achieved, thereby maintaining continuous engagement with their clients.
AJO B2B also integrates AI tools from Adobe Firefly and Adobe Experience Manager, allowing brands to quickly create custom content and templates for their marketing campaigns. This integration underscores Adobe’s broader strategy of embedding AI across its creative platforms, offering users a robust set of tools to enhance their marketing efforts.
However, Adobe has not disclosed specific pricing details for AJO, as costs vary significantly depending on customer requirements.
Despite the advancements, Adobe has faced some controversy over its AI policies. An update to its Terms of Services led to concerns about user surveillance and the use of customer content to train AI models. Adobe clarified that these policies had been in place for years and reassured users that it does not access or use material from local servers for training purposes.
The inclusion of generative AI in marketing tools is part of a larger trend, with companies like HubSpot also incorporating AI features into their products to enhance marketing capabilities.
