# Enrichments Data enrichment is the process of adding additional information to data sets in real-time in order to make them more valuable and useful.\ \ It can be used to [enrich events](/features/enrichments/events-enrichment.md) as well as [user profiles](/features/enrichments/augmented-user-attributes.md).\ \ Real-time event enrichment involves adding contextual data to events as they occur (ex: weather information), while real-time user profile enrichment involves calculating new attributes about a user's characteristics, behavior, and preferences to their profile (using score, flags, ratio, rolling count/average, conditional value, boolean...).\ \ Both forms of enrichment can help businesses better understand and engage with their customers.\ Enrich incoming events in real-time before to send it to destinations. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
