Ignite®: The future of experience management
Transform insights into real-time action with purpose-built AI



The new standard in experience management
For decades, brands have focused on improving customer experience post-interaction. But great experiences start earlier, before the app download, store visit, or purchase.
Leading companies involve customers from the very beginning during experience design.
By seeking input while developing products, designing loyalty programs, and shaping marketing campaigns, brands can avoid the consequences of relying on assumptions: missed expectations, low engagement, and lost revenue.
SMG helps brands gather customer feedback before they commit to a direction. Then, by connecting brand, customer, and employee initiatives, companies can turn real BX, CX, and EX insights into action across the entire journey.

Ignite, our AI-native platform, powers this Unified Experience Management® (UXM) approach with real-time strategic recommendations that drive continuous improvement, stronger loyalty, and business growth.
From gathering feedback during experience design to optimizing every interaction onward, SMG helps ensure every decision is backed by data, not guesswork.


Behind every great experience is a brand that trusts SMG
