Solution

Káyana was established with Bain as a digital and data company that unifies datasets from major Philippine businesses and turns them into AI-driven growth programs. The deployment starts by bringing together data from Metro Pacific Investments Corporation, Manila Electric Company, and PLDT, then applying large-scale enrichment to create a shared dataset. Káyana uses that data estate to build more than 200 customer micro-segments and cross-industry narratives, especially around health, wellness, and digital services, so business teams can better understand consumer needs. Those segments then feed an AI-powered online acquisition campaign and a machine-learning-based lead acquisition engine that optimize targeting and outreach. The result is a production workflow that moves from multi-company data integration to enriched segmentation, then into AI-driven acquisition and lead generation programs that materially improve conversion and customer engagement.

Data flow

Datasets from Metro Pacific Investments Corporation, Manila Electric Company, and PLDT are unified and enriched inside Káyana, which produces more than 200 customer micro-segments and cross-industry narratives. Those outputs feed an AI-powered acquisition campaign and a machine-learning-based lead engine that drive tailored outreach and improved lead conversion.
