EDTECH: LEVERAGING AI-POWERED TECHNOLOGIES TO TRANSFORM THE LEARNING EXPERIENCE
1. Technology overview
Talon.One, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Berlin, Germany, builds an incentives engine that lets retail and consumer brands design, run, and measure promotions and loyalty programs. The company addresses rigid, hardcoded discount logic that limits how quickly marketing teams can test and personalize offers.
The platform provides a rules engine for coupons, discounts, and bundles, alongside loyalty management and an AI module for predicting promotion performance, integrated into existing commerce and POS systems via API. Customers include Adidas, ASOS, Sephora, and Panera. In 2026 the company was acquired by Adyen while continuing to operate under its own brand.
