ADVERTISER PLATFORMS
Veritone | March 03, 2023
On March 2, 2023, Veritone, a company that develops AI software and services through its aiWARE™ platform, has revealed that Audacy, a prominent multi-platform audio content and entertainment firm, is now utilizing Veritone Attribute to advance its data and analytics reporting for advertising clients. In addition, Audacy, already a user of Veritone's AI applications, has expanded its usage by incorporating Veritone Attribute.
By incorporating Veritone Attribute, Audacy aims to enhance its capability to demonstrate the effectiveness of its broadcast ad campaigns. It plans to achieve this by providing advertisers with valuable directional insights regarding the performance of their campaigns across a wide range of Audacy radio brands. With this enhanced data, advertisers can make more informed decisions about their campaigns and compare their performance on Audacy stations to other advertising mediums. In addition, research has shown that attribution reporting helps increase advertiser spending and reduces the frequency of canceled ad campaigns, making it a valuable tool for evaluating campaign performance.
Veritone Attribute is a tool that enables advertisers to analyze the relationship between their broadcast ad exposure and website traffic. By providing insights on creative, daypart, day of the week, and station, the tool helps advertisers optimize their campaigns to achieve better results. In conjunction with other Veritone aiWARE applications, Veritone Attribute also allows Audacy to measure post-exposure actions taken by listeners, including those resulting from sponsorships, billboards, live mentions, promotional commercials, and other in-content integrations.

DISPLAY ADVERTISING, RETARGETING
Zoomd | January 27, 2023
With creative ad optimization subjected to user biases such as preferences for strong headlines, graphics, colors, etc., Albert AI technology, owned by Zoomd, provides genuine creative optimization based on real-time creative performance across goods, advertising, campaigns, and market segments.
Even with the recent development of technologies like Chat GPT-4, ad production is likely to be the last aspect of marketing to gain from AI-powered technology. Due to the subjectivity used by individuals while optimizing commercials, the optimization of ad creatives is now well suited for AI technology.
An e-commerce business hired Albert AI intending to improve return on ad spend (ROAS) by 500%, a goal Albert's team thought was achievable. Instead, Albert's ROAS increased by 800% a few months after the onboarding process was completed. In subsequent years, the same e-commerce business, now in its fourth year of working with Albert, is still achieving gains in ROAS between 10 and 20%.
Albert optimized the ad creative for this e-commerce firm by developing the best-performing advertisements for each target category and ad platform/channel. In addition, its technology makes the most excellent ad possible by picking the finest photos, colors, fonts, and texts to provide the most cost-effective results for the target demographic. Finally, Albert's system was able to decide when to refresh and then modify ads to maximize ROAS.
The technology employs AI to generate advertisements that improve campaign performance, including keyword, platform, audience, and device selection and bidding, as well as creative optimization spanning search, display, social, and cross-channel.
