Where we differ

The difference shows up
in three places.

Your stack

HighTouch + Braze/Klaviyo/Iterable = two vendors, two contracts, extra work. Bird replaces both with one platform that runs campaigns from warehouse data.

Your speed

Warehouse → HighTouch → marketing tool → campaign. Bird removes the middle steps. Your warehouse data triggers campaigns instantly.

Your costs

HighTouch license + marketing platform ($50K+ Braze, $36K+ Iterable, $30K+ Klaviyo) + integration. Bird includes CDP and execution in one platform.

The Hightouch tax

The Hightouch tax

What they don’t tell you until you’re locked in.

You still need marketing tools

HighTouch syncs data brilliantly. But you still need to pay for Braze, Klaviyo, Iterable, or another marketing platform to actually send campaigns. That's two vendors, two contracts, and ongoing integration maintenance.

Multi-vendor complexity

Your team manages HighTouch configuration, marketing tool setup, data model syncs, integration monitoring, and troubleshooting across vendors. When something breaks, whose responsibility is it?

Data sync delays

Warehouse → HighTouch → marketing tool → campaign trigger. Each step adds latency. Real-time personalization requires real-time data movement through multiple systems.

The total cost

HighTouch scales with usage and syncs. Marketing platform: $50-200K+/year typical (Braze, Klaviyo, Iterable, etc.). Integration maintenance: Ongoing engineering time. Multiple vendor relationships and contracts.

Bird goes where HighTouch can't

HighTouch activates warehouse data. You still need marketing platforms to execute campaigns. Bird does both.

Native campaign execution

HighTouch syncs data. Bird includes email, SMS, WhatsApp, Push, In-App, and RCS natively.

  • One platform instead of two

  • Faster time-to-campaign

  • No integration maintenance

  • Real-time responsiveness

Switching is easy.

The biggest objection we hear: "Migration sounds painful." It's not—if you have a team that's done it 100+ times.

  • WEEK 1

    Technical setup, data migration, and validation

  • WEEK 2

    Simultaneously executing and evaluating tests

  • WEEK 3

    Full cutover (or continue parallel as long as needed)
