The new AI reality
Conversational and AI-powered interfaces are changing how users interact with digital content. From voice assistants to bots and AI agents, these tools are becoming key entry points for brand discovery, engagement, and conversion.
According to research from MarketsandMarkets, the global conversational AI market is estimated to reach USD 49.8 billion by 2031, meaning over 20 percent growth year on year.
This highlights a big shift: marketing is moving from traditional clicks and taps, to interactions that are dynamic, context-aware. However, these interactions are often invisible to conventional measurement tactics.
For mobile marketers, this shift means complex challenges:
- Disappearing signals
Due to voice and chat-based actions bypassing standard identifiers. - Fragmented journeys
Due to users starting with a voice query on a smart device and finishing the conversion in an app or on mobile web. - New engagement metrics
Not only are conversational experiences becoming more important, but also they will now define what counts as a conversion or interaction. - Privacy-first ecosystems
As a result of conversational AI tools evolving, access to granular user-level data continues to narrow.
Marketers now need a new measurement mindset, one built for dynamic, AI-driven journeys.
How conversational AI is changing marketing
Conversational interfaces are not just a new channel, they are an entirely new interaction model. The marketing funnel is becoming fluid, requiring measurement tools that can interpret intent rather than just track clicks. Here are just three examples of the shifts:
From static journeys to continuous engagement
Firstly, user journeys are now multi-modal and device agnostic. A campaign might drive awareness through an AI search assistant, conversion through a chatbot, and retention through app notifications. As a result, traditional attribution cannot capture this complexity.
From deterministic data to modeled understanding
With privacy constraints and continued signal loss, marketers must combine deterministic signals with modeled metrics in order to estimate true performance. This shift emphasizes the importance of data unification and accuracy at the aggregate level.
From campaign-centric to conversation-centric marketing
Finally, the rise of AI-driven assistants means enabling useful conversations that can be measured.
Understanding how those conversations lead to installs, purchases, or engagement is the new challenge for growth teams.
