Treasure AI Named Leader in 2026 IDC MarketScape

Treasure AI has been named a Leader in both the 2026 IDC MarketScape assessments for Worldwide AI-Enabled Customer Data Platforms for B2C and B2B users. IDC highlighted strengths across consumer and enterprise use cases — including hybrid deployment, AI agent-based workflow automation, account-centric data models and predictive scoring. Treasure AI’s Intelligent CDP (TD ICDP) consolidates first-party, anonymous and off-platform data into identity-resolved profiles to power AI agents and real-time orchestration. The company introduced Treasure AI Studio in April 2026 (a conversational AI workspace) and launched a free always-on version of the platform in June 2026. Company executives (Rafa Flores) and IDC analysts (Tapan Patel) framed the recognition as validation of AI-driven, data-governed customer operations.
