TT and Hershey India Unveil a Tech-Fueled Journey with Generative AI Portal for personalized messaging, ahead of ‘Butterflies’ Season 5 Launch
India’s much-loved content company, Terribly Tiny Tales (TTT) has consistently woven heartwarming tales around the threads of love and cherished connections, striking a chord with its audience. TTT’s flagship IP, ‘Butterflies’ (that captures love in various dynamics) and Valentine’s have been synonymous for years now, with the colossal success and in collaboration with Hershey India for the last two seasons. This year for its much-anticipated 5th season, ‘Butterflies’ powered by Hershey India is set to scale new heights to usher in Valentine’s Day 2024 while retaining the original core of the IP. In a significant stride towards innovation and infusing a special touch into the campaign, TTT is not only expanding its creative prowess but also venturing into the tech domain by launching a custom dedication website for #YourForevers which will be live till February ‘24. With this distinct, cutting-edge portal fueled by Generative AI, TTT empowers users to craft customized SMS messages for their loved ones – adding a layer of sentiment to their storytelling. This strategic move positions TTT at the intersection of content and technology, reaffirming its commitment to pushing boundaries and delivering unique experiences to its audience.
This season, with the help of this brand-new generative AI-focused website, TTT ‘helps you voice for every relationship of your choice’. The platform aims to create tailored dedications, celebrating all kinds of love this Valentine’s – be it the enduring love between friends and couples, or the cherished family bonds or the nuanced dynamics of sibling relationships or any other forms of connection. The AI process seamlessly integrates user inputs, generating personalized dedications with custom images and songs in a classic retro style, thus delivering a tailored mixed tape that captures both present love and futuristic storytelling in mere seconds.
For example, consider a scenario where a friend desires to convey the essence of their bond. The user inputs all the key details into the generative AI platform about their friendship – shared experiences, defining moments, and the emotions he/she wishes to express. The AI weaves this data into a heartfelt poem, incorporates a customized image that resonates with the message and sets it all to a selected song that holds a special meaning. This unique creation, celebrating their friendship is then delivered directly to the recipient’s inbox.
The entire campaign caters to a diverse audience of all age groups and revolves around the simple concept that being romantic at heart doesn’t always translate to romantic actions, and TTT addresses this challenge at scale, maintaining a personalized touch at the same time. While creative storytelling remains at TTT’s core, the brand is adopting fresh, modern formats to narrate familiar tales in 2024. Moreover, top dedications on the platform will stand a chance of becoming a film in Butterflies S5.
Anuj Gosalia, Founder and CEO of TTT, said, “With the world moving towards generative AI, we have stitched real love and Artificial Intelligence together by building the country’s largest dedication portal to help you express your love this Valentine’s. Personalization is a powerful tool for making consumers feel valued and understood. We have been working on this project since November ‘23 and, as we launch this website just ahead of the romantic season, we invite you to join us in the art of personalized storytelling. Also, stay tuned for the upcoming 5th season of ‘Butterflies,’ our flagship web series in collaboration with Hershey India – capturing diverse love dynamics with its rich storytelling which has always kept the audience enraptured. We’ve pulled out all the stops to make this season bigger and better.”
Ankit Desai, Marketing Director, Hershey India, said, “Valentine’s Day is a celebration of love in its myriad expressions, from the profound connection between spouses, to the bittersweet relationship between siblings, and the everlasting ties shared with parents. Over the past three years, we have been building and strengthening the ethos of our campaign ‘YourForevers’. To bring alive this, we are thrilled to yet again associate with Terribly Tiny Tales for the upcoming season of ‘Butterflies’. As we eagerly anticipate the romantic tales and heartfelt content that will surely strike a chord with the viewers, we are equally excited about TTT’s launch of their Generative AI portal that adds another dimension to the campaign. Embodying innovation at its core, this portal is a canvas for heartfelt messages, elevating the art of expressing love in the digital age. Our strategy seamlessly integrates creativity, strategic execution and cutting-edge technology, enabling heartfelt connections across diverse relationships. Through the AI portal, we want to enable consumers to express love to their forevers while providing a truly personalized and meaningful experience.”
Strategically slated for a pre-Valentine’s Day launch, the website launch campaign will leverage social media platforms for widespread promotion. Additionally, TTT will be collaborating with multiple influencers, who will use the portal to dedicate original songs and express how they feel. The brand is eyeing to generate 10K + submissions through the portal and maintaining a dynamic buzz around the campaign. So, unleash the power of personalized storytelling, create unique dedications, and make this Valentine’s Day unforgettable for your loved ones. Just like love has no limits, so does the portal! Feel free to utilize it as many times as you want to.
