Creatable AI Analyzes Social Commerce Data
References: martech360
Creatable has launched a predictive artificial intelligence tool called Creatable AI — or CAI, for short — which analyzes 12 years of proprietary social commerce data to forecast how well a specific creator will drive online sales before any content is produced or any booking is made. The technology is already being used by major brands like Ulta Beauty and Aeropostale.
In a physical store, a customer has nearly a 20% percent chance of making a purchase, but online that rate typically drops to around two percent, largely because shoppers are left alone with static images and written descriptions. By using CAI to match products with creators who have proven they can convert lookers into buyers, a brand can embed shoppable videos that feel less like ads and more like advice from a helpful friend who has actually tried the item.
