Four reads, four jobs.

The best AI newsletters for marketers do different jobs. Some explain the tools, some track the martech stack, and some interpret the broader business shift.

Written by Francesco Federico, Global Chief Marketing Officer at S&P Global and author of The Agentic CMO, it is a weekly account of what changes inside marketing when AI agents become part of the operating model — read by senior marketers, C-suite leaders, and transformation practitioners.
