- Consumer AI's tipping point - Bessemer Venture Partners
We’re looking for companies that are solving existing consumer problems through exceptional AI-driven automation, offering solutions at radically lower price points than non-automated alternatives, and making traditional enterprise software capabilities available to individuals and end users. We’re excited to see this once-in-a-generation consumer era take off, as entrepreneurs are reimagining the ways we all live, play, and connect differently with the power of AI. [...] We expect to see a similar consumer trend in the coming years—this time enabled by AI. Foundation models allow companies to build AI solutions that process data from consumers, facilitate interactions through conversational interfaces, and trigger workflows to automate key tasks for consumers. In the future, AI could address core and supporting workflows typically done by professionals such as travel agents, financial advisors, fitness instructors, etc. [...] We believe we’re on the brink of a new wave of consumer earthquakes, this time driven by AI-native products. Startups like Anthropic, Perplexity, and DeepL are creating experiences so magical and differentiated that they’re garnering considerable organic adoption. This suggests that AI advancements could serve as both the seismic force creating new product possibilities and the distribution vector, paving the way for the next generation of consumer juggernauts.
- AI gets personal: A glimpse into the consumer future
For tech vendors: This creates a market for monitoring, auditing, and security solutions tailored to consumer AI applications. These trends point to a future where AI isn’t just something consumers use; it’s something they live with. For B2C brands, that means building more human, responsive, and resilient connections with customers. For technology vendors, it’s an unprecedented chance to help those brands deliver on the promise of AI at scale. [...] The next generation of consumer devices will feature hybrid AI agents, working both on-device and in the cloud. This model balances privacy, performance, and personalization, enabling smarter, more responsive experiences without always needing to phone home. It’s a major leap forward in how AI integrates into daily life. More than half of PCs shipping next year (and more than two thirds of smartphones) will have NPUs to enable on-device AI. [...] AI isn’t just transforming businesses, it’s quietly reshaping the consumer experience in ways that are more personal, emotional, and surprising. For B2C brands, this evolution brings both new opportunities to engage customers and new expectations to meet. For technology vendors, it opens up a fast-growing market to empower brands with the tools, platforms, and infrastructure they’ll need to compete.
- 2025 Connected Consumer: Innovation with trust
Consumers who engage with gen AI—whether through apps, devices, or dedicated tools—are significantly more likely to perceive their tech providers as highly innovative. Among general consumers surveyed, only 50% to 56% say their app, service, or device providers deliver high innovation (figure 8). But those numbers rise among gen AI users: Sixty-one percent of consumers using gen AI-embedded apps,274% of those with gen AI-enabled devices, and 73% of regular gen AI users rate their providers as
