Business Context

Stanbic Uganda wanted to move beyond broad customer segments and generic campaign content. Marketing teams were spending weeks manually building segments, creative, and copy — while customer data sat fragmented across systems, making true personalisation impossible at scale. 
problem Problem

Fragmented data and manual campaign production

  • Customer data was fragmented across multiple systems, making a single, reliable view of each customer difficult to build and forcing broad, generic segmentation rather than anything tailored to the individual. 
  • Campaign creation relied on manual effort at every stage — 15 analysts to hand-build segments, two resources spending three weeks on creative imagery, and four analysts spending two weeks on content — which meant a full campaign took roughly 8 weeks from creation to launch. 
  • Without personalisation, campaigns were built around just 3 broad segments and a single generic email, and performance reflected it: weaker open rates, weaker reactivation of dormant customers, and lower conversion than a targeted approach could achieve. 
solution Solution

AI-powered personalisation platform on AWS

  • Melio AI built an AI-powered personalisation platform using Amazon Bedrock for generative AI within Stanbic's own AWS environment, alongside a prototype so executives could see the end-state experience before committing to a full build. 
  • The platform ingests campaign briefs and raw customer data, automatically generates insights and hyper-segments, and bulk-generates on-brand images and text for each segment — with collaboration, governance, and a human-in-the-loop review step throughout. 
  • This was proven on a live customer reactivation campaign: 46 unique hyper-segments, each with personalised imagery, text and varied calls to action delivered by email, replacing the 3 broad segments and single generic email used previously. 
FontAwesomeIcon Benefits

Outcomes delivered

  • Campaign turnaround dropped from 8 weeks to 1 week, freeing the personalisation team to focus on strategy rather than manual production. 
  • Open rates rose 45% (14.10% to 20.40%) and conversion rates rose 62% (4.74% to 7.7%), showing that hyper-personalised content resonates far more than generic, broad-segment messaging. 
  • Dormant customer reactivations rose 62% (1,701 to 2,765), and the campaign delivered a UGX 872 million uplift in balance sheet impact — a 556% increase over the equivalent traditional campaign.

Prototype-first, then production at scale

We started with a working prototype inside Stanbic's AWS account so stakeholders could experience the end-to-end workflow — from brief ingestion to segment generation to creative review — before committing to a full build. 

 The production platform was designed around governance from day one: human-in-the-loop approval for all AI-generated content, audit trails for every campaign decision, and role-based access aligned to Stanbic's marketing operations. 

1

Discovery & data mapping

Mapped customer data sources, campaign workflows, and brand guidelines to define integration points and personalisation boundaries.
2

Proof of concept

Built a clickable prototype on Amazon Bedrock with live data samples, validated with marketing leadership on a reactivation use case.
3

Production rollout

Deployed the full platform with segment engine, creative generation, review workflows, and email delivery integration.

In their words

"The prototype let our executives see exactly what hyper-personalisation would look like before we committed budget. That changed the conversation entirely." 
Marketing Director Stanbic Uganda
"We went from three broad segments to 46 tailored ones in a single campaign. The team finally has time to think about strategy instead of manual production."
