Using AI in Promotions

AI for Promotions empowers your staff users to leverage Narmi AI to streamline the creation of marketing campaigns. With Narmi AI, you can:

  • Accelerate campaign development – Significantly reduce the time required to design promotions, allowing your institution to increase the frequency and volume of marketing initiatives.

  • Augment marketing capabilities – Provide a sophisticated "marketing assistant" for institutions that may lack dedicated in-house creative resources, ensuring professional-grade output for all users.

We use Claude (Anthropic) via AWS Bedrock to ensure secure, high-performance natural language processing. Institutions must sign the AI terms and conditions provided by their Narmi Relationship Manager before the feature is enabled.

The following conditions apply to AI in Promotions:

  • Currently, Narmi AI supports the generation of text-only card promotions.

  • We are actively developing AI-generated card image promotions and plan to introduce this functionality in a subsequent release.

  • AI-generated banner images are not supported at this stage. This is due to constraints in the current model, which require fixed aspect ratios that do not align with our banner dimension requirements.

How It Works

Narmi AI generates card promotions by synthesizing data from the following inputs:

  • Promotion Name – The primary title of the campaign.

  • Description – An optional field; if populated, Narmi AI uses this text to inform the tone and detail of the output.

  • Link URL – The destination link for the promotion.

  • AI Prompts/Keywords – An optional field to provide specific directions or stylistic preferences. We highly recommend using this field to provide Narmi AI with clear guidance on your creative vision.

The AI Workflow

Create AI-generated card promotions using the following steps:

  1. Enter Initial Details – In a new promotion, enter the promotion name and optional description, choose web or mobile format, enter the destination URL in the “Details” section, then select Save and continue (see the instructions in Details).
    Form for creating a new promotion with fields for name, platform, and URL.

  2. Customize Style and Content – The "Style and content" section opens, with the Narmi AI input box at the top. Select the Card option (Banner image and Card image options are not supported at this time).

    You can select Generate to create a promotion based solely on the "Details" section, but we recommend first entering a prompt and keywords in the AI box, then selecting Generate. This provides additional context and improves the quality of the generated promotion. The AI-crafted content automatically populates the relevant fields.

    After generating, you can add additional prompts in the AI box to refine the results as needed, then select Regenerate. When finalized, select Save and continue.

  3. Set Target and Scheduling – Specify the target segment(s) for the promotion and schedule when the promotion should run (see instructions in Target and Scheduling).

  4. Review and Confirm – Once generated, review your promotion and select Confirm. The new promotion will appear in the Scheduled tab until the specified start date and time.
