New research reveals rising body skin concerns and growing consumer trust in AI-powered skincare guidance

NEW YORK, July 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Haut.AI, the award-winning leader in AI-powered skin intelligence and generative skincare personalization, today announced the launch of its new Body Analysis platform, a first-of-its-kind AI-powered body skin analysis technology, designed to help beauty and wellness brands deliver personalized, data-driven bodycare experiences for beauty consumers at scale. Consumers can now try the body skin analysis and bodycare product recommendation platform.

The launch arrives as the global beauty market grows 10% year-on-year, with NielsenIQ data showing that over half of today’s consumers are seeking out AI-powered shopping tools to personalize their purchases.* Haut.AI’s platform meets this exact moment, bringing clinically informed AI skin analysis and personalized product recommendations to help brands better address rising consumer demand for more intelligent and individualized bodycare solutions.

The announcement is accompanied by new consumer research revealing wide body skin concerns and growing consumer openness toward AI-powered bodycare guidance. According to the survey of 1,238 U.S. women, 80% of respondents feel pressure to have “healthy-looking” or “flawless” skin, nearly 40% feel insecure showing their body skin, and 43% have changed plans because of body skin concerns.

Bringing AI Skin Intelligence Beyond the Face

Haut.AI’s new Body Analysis module expands the company’s AI skin-analysis platform beyond the face. The technology delivers objective, quantitative skin measurement across the full body through a single unified pipeline Haut.AI’s suite of AI-powered skin intelligence solutions.

Positioned as a first-of-its-kind full-body skin intelligence platform for B2B beauty and wellness partners, the technology’s primary differentiator is its unified model architecture, which covers every body region without relying on fragmented or body-part-specific systems.

The technology was trained on more than 100,000 skin images across multiple body parts and validated across all six Fitzpatrick skin types (FST1–FST6) and genders as part of Haut.AI’s fairness-by-design approach to AI-powered skin analysis. Body coverage includes face, neck, torso (front and back), arms, hands (palm and dorsal), legs and feet. All regions are analyzed through a single segmentation model and the platform enables product recommendations and personalized bodycare experiences.

“Consumers rarely expect bodycare products to deliver visible results beyond basic moisturization, largely because products are not properly matched to their individual skin needs,” said Anastasia Georgievskaya, CEO & Co-Founder of Haut.AI and a scientist with a Master’s degree in bioengineering and biophysics. “Body skin is just as complex as facial skin, yet while the beauty industry has developed sophisticated systems for facial skin analysis and recommendations, brands have lacked the infrastructure needed to deliver the same level of intelligence and personalization for bodycare. Body Analysis changes that by providing objective, quantitative skin data across the full body through a unified AI model, enabling more precise product recommendations, better consumer outcomes, and stronger long-term trust in the category.”

New Research Reveals Rising Consumer Body Skin Concerns

Haut.AI’s consumer survey highlights the growing emotional and behavioral impact of body skin concerns, particularly during summer months when body skin visibility increases.

According to the findings:

81% of consumers regularly use bodycare products91% expose more of their body skin during summer monthsNearly 40% feel insecure showing their body skinNearly 50% say body skin concerns impact their enjoyment of summer at least moderately

The research also revealed that body skin concerns are increasingly shaping consumer behavior:

43% have changed plans because of body skin concerns45% say cost prevents routine consistency36% say bodycare routines involve too many steps34% say they do not know what products to use

Consumers cited dryness and hyperpigmentation among their top body skin concerns, with hyperpigmentation ranking as one of the most difficult conditions to manage.

Consumers Increasingly Trust AI for Bodycare Guidance

At the same time, Haut.AI’s findings point to rapidly growing consumer trust in AI-powered beauty guidance and personalized digital diagnostics.

The survey found:

62% of consumers are interested in or already use AI for skincare or bodycare advice74% believe AI could make bodycare routines easier or more effective

For beauty brands and retailers, the findings signal a major shift in consumer expectations — from static product discovery toward intelligent, personalized bodycare experiences.

Their demand for TIC services is further strengthened by the growing role of lenders, insurers, independent engineers, and grid operators in evaluating the safety, performance, and operational readiness of BESS projects. As project portfolios scale across multiple locations, developers are increasingly adopting outsourced specialist TIC services to reduce execution risk and support timely energization.

Cloaked Launches Research Hub to Document the Evolving State of Consumer Privacy

Published

on

By

Cloaked, the consumer-first privacy and security company, launches the Cloaked Research Hub. This ongoing initiative will produce original, nationally representative research on how American consumers think about, experience, and respond to personal privacy and data safety issues. Insights are available at www.cloaked.com/research-hub.

NEW YORK, July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Cloaked, the consumer-first privacy and security company, today announced the launch of the Cloaked Research Hub. This ongoing initiative will produce original, nationally representative research on how American consumers think about, experience, and respond to personal privacy and data safety issues.

“The Cloaked Research Hub is a fact-based insights resource for individuals, companies, media, and policymakers to continue to better understand American views on data privacy across a wide range of topics and demographics,” said Arjun Bhatnagar, Co-founder and CEO at Cloaked.

The Cloaked Research Hub launches with five published surveys, revealing growing concern about data privacy risks and distrust of new technologies like AI, which are influencing consumer behavior. Each survey includes 1,000 US respondents and addresses a relevant topic, such as artificial intelligence and data sharing, the cost of financial fraud, the impact of digital search exposure, and the impact of spam on consumer trust.

“Understanding consumer sentiment and how it influences action is a pivotal component to solving the data privacy crisis we face today,” said Arjun Bhatnagar, Co-founder and CEO at Cloaked. “The Cloaked Research Hub is a fact-based insights resource for individuals, companies, media, and policymakers to continue to better understand American views on data privacy across a wide range of topics and demographics.”

Americans Know Privacy-Risk Exists and Seek Answers.

Over the last two years, 33 million searches related to digital privacy, online privacy, and personal data removal have been made. Of these, “remove my information from the internet free” grew by 133%, while “how to delete information from the internet” grew 34%.

Nearly all digital identity searches (96%) focused on awareness, monitoring, or protection. Only 3% focused on reactive deletion, removal, or damage control. However, within this context, searches tied to doxxing prevention grew 37% year over year.

Digital footprint survey results revealed that 77% of Americans feel they do not have control over what appears about them online.

Spam and AI Add to Growing Consumer Distrust.

New technologies like artificial intelligence are accelerating feelings of distrust and a lack of control among Americans, as they increase the volume of spam and the sophistication of scams.

According to Cloaked’s “The Trust Costs of Spam Calls and Texts” survey, spam is playing a significant role in changing how Americans communicate. The survey reveals that the average American loses 27 hours a year to spam calls. Because of such high spam rates, 42% of individuals state that it has significantly influenced or completely changed their communication preferences toward non-call methods, and 43% of respondents have blocked all unknown callers by default.

Cloaked’s “How Americans Feel about Sharing Their Data with AI” survey shows that 75% of individuals feel monitored by the technologies they use, and 82% of respondents say they do not trust AI to keep their data safe.

Feelings about AI are also influencing consumer decision-making and brand loyalty. More than 2 in 5 Americans said learning that a company uses AI to make decisions about them regarding credit, hiring, or insurance without their consent would cause them to leave a platform.

The Cloaked Research Hub is meant to provide an ongoing pulse on American sentiment and action tied to timely privacy topics. New surveys will be unveiled monthly, addressing different forces shaping digital identity, data protection, and consumer privacy today.

Quiq launches Verified Intelligence to give enterprise brands full control over agentic AI

Published

on

By

The agentic AI platform introduces a three-part control layer — guardrails, simulations, and step-by-step visibility — so enterprise brands can move on AI without putting their customer experience or brand reputation at risk.

BOZEMAN, Mont., July 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Quiq, the agentic AI agent platform for enterprise customer experience, today announced Verified Intelligence, a set of capabilities designed to give brands the controls they need to deploy and operate agentic AI with confidence. Verified Intelligence combines guardrails that protect every customer interaction, simulations that prove AI behavior before go-live, and step-by-step visibility into every decision the AI makes.

Enterprise brands are under pressure to move on AI. The risk is not moving too slowly, it is deploying AI that behaves in ways you cannot predict, explain, or control. Run agentic AI with confidence, not guessing. Verified Intelligence is Quiq’s answer to that problem.

“The brands that get AI right are the ones that never had to choose between innovation and control,” said Mike Myer, CEO of Quiq. “Verified Intelligence is how we make sure our customers never have to make that tradeoff. You get agentic AI that acts, and a control layer that makes sure it acts correctly.”

Guardrails that protect. Before any response reaches a customer, Quiq’s proprietary Verify Claim cross-references the AI’s answer for accuracy. Process Guides encode brand standards directly into the AI’s behavior without requiring code. Guardrails protect your brand before every response goes out.

Simulations that prove. Unlike tools that test single turns or scripted paths, Quiq lets teams run hundreds of realistic multi-turn conversations before a single customer sees the AI. Teams can define specific tests the simulation must pass, locking in desired behaviors as regression tests or adding targeted tests to make sure it cannot silently recur. Edge cases, regressions, and policy failures get caught before they reach production, not after.

Visibility into every decision. Quiq surfaces the step-by-step reasoning behind every individual interaction. Teams can see every AI decision in sequence since 100% of AI decisions are visible and auditable. Teams can refine and improve AI agent performance with full confidence, and demonstrate to stakeholders exactly how the AI is performing.

Verified Intelligence is available now across the Quiq platform for all AI Agent deployments.

About Quiq

Quiq is the agentic AI agent platform that resolves customer needs throughout the entire customer journey, maintaining continuous context across all channels while giving you complete visibility into every AI decision. Leading global brands including Roku, Staples, Accor, Brinks Home, Terminix, Urban Outfitters, and IHG Hotels & Resorts trust Quiq to resolve customer needs with confidence. Learn more at quiq.com.
