Case Study: Superhuman cuts campaign setup from four weeks to three days with Iterable
Key results
The challenge
Superhuman's lifecycle marketing team had the talent and ambition but ran on systems that could not support the speed or scale it needed. Campaign setup was slow and audience targeting relied on a small number of static segments.
The solution
The team adopted Iterable alongside a modern data stack (Hightouch reverse ETL, Databricks, AWS) to power data-driven personas, dynamic cohorts, and automated experimentation. This enabled faster campaign builds and more granular lifecycle targeting.
“We had the talent and the ambition, but our systems just weren't built for the speed or scale we needed.”

The results, in context
Campaign setup time fell from four weeks to three days, and value bidding plus lifecycle targeting delivered a 4.1% lift in lifetime value. The team scaled from five static audience segments to over twenty dynamically generated cohorts and 13 data-driven personas.
