Every AI conversation feeds your Segment data pipeline automatically

Customer data capture at conversation scale

Identify, track, group, page, screen, and batch. Your AI agent speaks Segment's full event vocabulary, turning every interaction into actionable customer data.

Identify Users

A customer shares their email during conversation. The agent calls Segment's Identify API with their user traits like name, email, and plan. The profile updates across every connected destination, from your CRM to your email platform, instantly.

Track Custom Events

Customer completes an action through the AI agent, like requesting a demo or asking about pricing. The agent fires a Segment Track call with the event name and properties. Your analytics tools capture the conversion without any frontend code.

Record Page Views

The AI agent guides customers through specific pages or resources during conversation. Each page reference triggers a Segment Page call with the URL and page name. Your analytics dashboards capture the full browsing journey alongside conversation data.

Associate Group Membership

A customer mentions their company name or account. The agent sends a Segment Group call linking the user to their organization with traits like industry, employee count, and plan. Account-level analytics across all your tools update simultaneously.

Merge User Identities

An anonymous visitor becomes a known customer during conversation. The agent fires a Segment Alias call to merge their anonymous browsing history with their newly identified profile. Complete customer journey captured from first visit to conversion.

Batch Multiple Events

A conversation generates several data points at once. The agent bundles identify, track, and page calls into a single Segment Batch request, reducing HTTP overhead while ensuring all events from the interaction are recorded atomically.

Use Cases

Customer data that captures itself

See how AI agents use Segment to automatically turn every conversation into rich behavioral data that flows to your CRM, analytics, marketing automation, and data warehouse.

Lead Identification That Enriches Your Entire Stack

A website visitor chats with your AI agent and mentions they are a marketing director at a 200-person SaaS company. The agent fires a Segment Identify call with their email, name, title, and company size, followed by a Group call linking them to their organization. Within seconds, their profile appears in HubSpot, their traits update in Amplitude, and their account shows in your data warehouse. One conversation, every tool enriched.

Conversion Tracking Without Developer Involvement

Your AI agent helps a customer complete a demo request through conversational Q&A. When the customer confirms, the agent sends a Segment Track event with properties like demo type, product interest, and lead score. This event flows to Google Analytics, your CRM, and your marketing automation without any frontend event tagging. Marketing tracks conversions from chat interactions just like web form submissions.

Anonymous to Known Customer Journey Stitching

A visitor has browsed your site three times anonymously before finally engaging with your AI agent and sharing their email. The agent sends an Alias call merging the anonymous ID with their real identity, then an Identify call with their traits. Segment stitches the entire journey together. Your analytics show all three visits, the chat engagement, and the conversion as one unified customer story.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

What Segment event types can the AI agent send?

The agent supports all core Segment event types: Identify (user traits), Track (custom events), Page (web page views), Screen (mobile app views), Group (organization association), Alias (identity merging), and Batch (multiple events in one call). This covers the complete Segment tracking vocabulary.

Do events from the AI agent appear alongside my existing Segment data?

Yes. Events sent by the agent use the same Segment source and follow the same schema as your existing tracking. They appear in your Segment debugger, flow to all connected destinations, and merge with existing user profiles. There is no separate data silo for agent-generated events.

How does the agent handle anonymous users who have not identified themselves?

The agent can use Segment's anonymousId parameter for users who have not provided identifying information. When the customer eventually shares their email or name, the agent sends an Identify call followed by an Alias call to merge the anonymous activity with the known profile. The full pre-identification history is preserved.

Can I control which Segment destinations receive events from the agent?

Yes. Each event the agent sends can include an integrations object that enables or disables specific destinations. For example, you can send Track events to Amplitude but not Salesforce, or send Identify events everywhere except a particular warehouse. Per-event destination control follows Segment's standard integrations parameter.

Does Tars store the customer data it sends to Segment?

Tars sends event data to Segment's HTTP Tracking API in real-time during conversations. The data flows directly to Segment and your configured destinations. Tars does not maintain a separate persistent copy of the customer traits, events, or properties sent through the Segment integration.

What authentication does the Segment integration require?

The integration requires a Segment API token and your workspace region, either 'api' for US-based workspaces or 'eu1' for EU-based workspaces. The API token authenticates management API calls. For tracking, a write key can also be provided. Both credentials are entered once in the Tars Tools configuration.

Can the agent update an existing Segment source's configuration?

Yes. The agent can update source metadata including display name, settings, and enabled status through Segment's Update Source API. It can also manage write keys, add labels to sources, and list connected warehouses. This enables programmatic source management from within conversations.

How is sending data through the AI agent different from client-side Segment tracking?

Client-side tracking captures page interactions through JavaScript on the user's browser. Agent-side tracking captures conversational interactions like questions asked, information provided, and actions completed through chat. Together they provide a complete picture of both browsing behavior and conversation engagement in a unified Segment profile.
