Identity resolution—accurately linking individuals, households, and businesses across multiple data sources—is critical for both marketing effectiveness and customer insights. It enables personalization, precise targeting, and measurement across channels.
“The foundation is understanding population identities, household identities, and individual identities in healthcare. That to me is one of the biggest exciting parts.” (00:45–00:52)
Key actions:
AI and large language models can make complex queries human-friendly, letting marketers and healthcare professionals get actionable insights from massive datasets. However, the accuracy of these tools is only as good as the data they’re trained on.
“Large language models are only as good as the data they’re modeled against. If the underlying data isn’t good, you’re gonna get bad answers.” (01:15–01:22)
Brands should treat first-party data as a long-term investment. Building a truth set—understanding and vetting existing data—sets the foundation for future success in a cookieless and AI-driven world.
“You’ve gotta start by really understanding the data in your current systems… separate the quality from the not-so-good data.” ( 01:50–01:57)
Best practices:
Even if third-party cookies persist, marketers must plan for a future where first-party and privacy-compliant data is the foundation of targeting and measurement.
“Whether cookies go away or not, you still have to understand the data behind those cookies.” (02:50–02:55)
Data Axle’s Audience solution differentiates by centralizing all first-party and third-party data to build a persistent enterprise identity spine. This enables privacy-compliant, ROI-driven marketing across multiple platforms.
“It’s about helping the brand stitch together all of that information, manage all of those IDs, and then be able to deal with privacy compliance as well as all the marketing strategies that each of the point solutions want to drive higher ROI for.” (03:20–03:35)
Do we still need third-party cookies?
Planning for a cookieless future is essential, even if cookies remain. The accuracy of cookie-based data varies, so building first-party, verified identity data is critical.
How should companies prepare their first-party data strategy?
Start by auditing current data, building a truth set, removing low-quality data, and aligning on internal use cases and compliance standards. This sets the foundation for AI-driven insights and long-term marketing success.
How does AI impact identity resolution?
AI can make complex queries easy and predictive, but the results are only as good as the underlying data. High-quality, vetted data is essential for AI to deliver accurate, actionable insights.
How does Data Axle differentiate from other data providers?
Data Axle’s Audience solution centralizes first-party and third-party data into a persistent enterprise identity spine, enabling privacy-compliant marketing, accurate measurement, and integration across multiple point solutions.
What’s the role of probabilistic matching in healthcare?
Probabilistic models allow identification and prediction where exact data is unavailable, incorporating social and environmental determinants for better population and individual insights.
