From insight to action

How discovery becomes a plan: start with the ranked actions that answer your goal, compare their action plans, and check the segment-level evidence before you activate.

Discovery tells you what’s true about your customers. This section is about what you do with that. Start with actions: the quickest way to understand what to do about your use case, because they answer the goal and KPIs from the use case definition across your whole base. Each action breaks into action plans — one slice of the audience each, described by its angle — and beneath every plan sit the segment tactics, the per-segment evidence the play draws on. In map terms, discovery drew the map. Now you plot routes across it and run them.

Your plays can only pull the levers your data built

There’s a causal chain running through the whole product that’s easy to miss: the features engineered during data preparation become the levers your plays can pull. Every action, plan, and segment tactic is expressed in terms of the columns in your customer 360; nothing else exists for it to reason with.

A concrete example: a “win back lapsed high-spenders” play is only buildable if recency and spend measures were part of the survey. If the prepared dataset has a <days since last purchase> and a spend measure, “lapsed” and “high-spender” are expressible, segments can separate along those axes, and the play can name its audience. If those measurements were never taken, no amount of downstream analysis can conjure them.

The practical consequence: when a play you want isn’t expressible in the results, the fix is often one step back in data preparation, not a different reading of the segments. Browse feature engineering examples for the kinds of measures worth having, and raise gaps with your Neuralift contact. Routes are only as good as the survey under them.

The working order

StepSurfaceWhat it answers
1. Actions & action plansActions tabThe ranked playbook: which plays answer the use case’s goal and KPIs, and how does each split into action plans with distinct angles?
2. Segment tacticsThe evidence fold under each action planWhere does value sit in each targeted segment, and how strong is the evidence behind the play?
3. Inside a segmentSegment detail in DiscoveryWho are the people behind a plan — the persona, insights, and defining features of each targeted group?
4. Export & activateExports tab and deliveryHow do the audiences get to the systems that run the campaign?

You can enter at any step, but actions are the natural front door: one screen that says what to do about the whole use case. From there, unfold a plan’s segment tactics when you want the evidence behind a play, jump into Discovery for the people behind it, and export the audiences out of Neuralift to run it.

Note. Actions, action plans, and segment tactics are AI-generated guidance grounded in your data and use case definition. Your team decides what ships; review before committing budget.
