Braze is a customer engagement platform for cross-channel messaging — push notifications, email, SMS, in-app, and web — built around Canvas, its visual journey orchestration tool, and a real-time, event-driven architecture. Most growing mobile and app-driven brands need both a properly architected instance and, increasingly, AI-driven automation built on top of it — exactly the gap Kovil AI fills.

Two Ways to Engage
Most clients need one of these to start. Many end up using both, coordinated by the same Engagement Manager.
The Platform
Braze is rarely one module — most real instances span several of these, sharing one customer profile.
Visual journey orchestration for multi-step, multi-channel customer journeys — the module every Braze instance is built around first.
Native mobile push and in-app messaging with rich personalization and targeting.
Cross-channel messaging unified with push and in-app in the same customer journeys.
Real-time API calls inside messages and journeys, pulling live data at send time.
Structured product and content catalogs feeding personalized recommendations into messages.
Braze's real-time data export streaming engagement events to your data warehouse or analytics stack.
Tell us what's broken or missing on a 30-minute call — we'll scope the highest-impact fix first.
AI on Braze
From configuring native automation to fully custom API workflows — here's what's possible.
Configure and extend Braze's built-in automation — send-time optimization, intelligent selection, and journey triggers — grounded in your real engagement data.
AI features that don't fit a template — invoking LLMs from custom integrations, wired into your actual user and event data.
AI-assisted engagement and churn scoring that catches disengagement before a quarter of lapsed users piles up.
AI agents that reach beyond Braze — into your data warehouse, CDP, and internal tools — through the Braze REST API or Currents.
AI agents are only as good as the data behind them — we audit custom attribute and event naming hygiene before anything goes live.
Not sure where to start? We audit your instance and data integration setup, then scope the single highest-impact automation first.
Common automation patterns we build on Braze — illustrative examples, not specific client engagements.
Canvas logic routes users down different paths automatically based on live in-app behavior, instead of a static, one-size-fits-all push campaign.
Custom scoring flags users with declining engagement and triggers a win-back journey before they uninstall.
Connected Content pulls live product or account data into messages at send time, instead of a marketer manually updating templates.

Specialist Talent
Every specialist is vetted through a live build challenge, not just a resume review — matched in 48 hours, with a 2-week risk-free trial.
Design the data model, Canvas architecture, and channel strategy for complex, multi-brand Braze deployments.
Build and maintain Canvas journeys, Connected Content calls, and Liquid personalization logic day to day.
Own the data pipeline connecting Braze to your CDP, data warehouse, and mobile SDKs via Currents and the REST API.
Prevailing 2026 US onsite hourly rates vs. Kovil AI's vetted remote talent — $18–$45/hr depending on role and experience.
| Role | US Onsite Rate | Kovil Remote Rate | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lifecycle/Canvas Developer | $55 – $80/hr | $22 – $28/hr | ~63% lower |
| Data & Integration Engineer | $70 – $100/hr | $26 – $32/hr | ~66% lower |
| Braze Solutions Architect | $90 – $130/hr | $30 – $38/hr | ~69% lower |
US onsite rates reflect prevailing 2026 contractor/consulting billing rates. Rate, not headcount, is what changes — every Kovil specialist passes the same live build challenge below, regardless of location.
Build a working Canvas journey against a realistic spec under time pressure — branch logic, Connected Content, and Liquid, not a take-home nobody reviews.
We test the judgment call that separates senior from junior: when a native Braze feature is enough, and when a custom API integration is worth the added complexity.
Beyond the journey logic, we test whether the specialist understands the data layer — Currents streaming and event naming conventions that keep a data model maintainable at scale.
2–3 real Braze instances or integrations they have shipped to production, reviewed for reliability and lessons from what broke.

The Stack
Who It's For
Push and in-app messaging are core to your product experience, and your Canvas journeys haven't kept pace with your app's growth. Get an architect who can fix it without a 6-month SI engagement.
Email, SMS, push, and in-app all need to work together, and the integration backlog keeps growing. Add a vetted specialist in days, scoped to exactly the workload you need covered.
Your Braze rollout stalled, or your Currents data pipeline never made it to production. We audit what's there and take over in milestone-gated phases — not a risky rewrite from zero.
What to Expect
Tell us how your journeys and data model are structured, what's broken or missing, and whether you need automation, dedicated talent, or both. A Delivery Lead scopes it within 24 hours.
Review 2–3 vetted Braze specialists matched to your stack and user volume. Interview and choose your fit.
Before any work starts, you agree the instance access, integration points, and success metrics — so day one has a clear target.
Your specialist or automation build moves in weekly milestones. An Engagement Manager audits every checkpoint before it reaches you.
Add talent as new journeys or channels come online, extend the engagement, or wind down — no lock-in.
