Fueling The Future of Creative with Auto Optimization

When thinking about the future of creative, what comes to mind? Likely technology–perhaps something along the lines of artificial intelligence or the ad from Minority Report. But it’s not only about the process of building standout, unique creatives. It’s about making them smarter. 

Steve Jobs once said, “Creativity is just connecting things.” And if you work in digital advertising, that statement rings particularly true. Think about it this way, a standout ad is subjective. Therefore, you need proof around what resonates with your audience before investing more into it.

While both dynamic and interactive creative are strong players when it comes to advertising performance, they’ve been the focus of the industry’s innovation for roughly the last decade. This innovation has left creative ad experiences ready for flexible in-flight changes, and primed them to capitalize on the advantages of sophisticated, seamless auto optimization.

To make this future a reality, Innovid has added some notable additions to our existing Auto Optimization solution.
