Audiences are saved segments of your contacts. Use them to target specific groups when sending campaigns or starting automations.
Two ways to create an audience
Define the audience
- Create with AI
- Build by hand
On the Audience page, describe what you want in the AI prompt box. Brew generates the filters and a descriptive name automatically.Examples:
Customers who signed up in the last 30 days but haven’t opened any emails yet.
Contacts who clicked our product launch email and visited our pricing page.
Enterprise customers who have been subscribers for more than 6 months.Review the generated filters and name, adjust anything before saving.
Review who matches
Brew shows the filters that define your audience plus a preview of matching contacts and the total count.
Using saved audiences
Saved audiences appear in two places:- The Audience page. Click the chip showing the selected audience to switch between saved ones
- The send dialog. When sending a campaign or starting an automation, pick a saved audience as the recipients
- Download as CSV. Export the matching contacts
- Delete audience. Remove the audience definition (your contacts stay; just the saved filter is removed)
Audiences are dynamic. Brew stores the filter criteria, not a frozen list of contacts. As contacts are added, updated, or change engagement, they automatically enter or leave audiences based on the filters.

Best practices
Start with engagement tiers
Build basic engagement segments (highly engaged, moderately engaged, dormant) before getting fancy.
Use descriptive names
Name audiences so your team understands their purpose. Active Enterprise Prospects Q2 beats Audience 7.
Smaller is better
Targeted audiences usually outperform broad sends. Specific resonates.
Test before scaling
Validate messaging with a small audience before sending to a large one.
