Kochava AI Prompt powered by Generative AI takes data-driven insight discovery into marketers’ own hands through natural and native language processing

SANDPOINT, IDAHO – October 24, 2023 – Kochava, the leading real-time data solutions company for omni-channel attribution and measurement, today announced a powerful addition to its robust AI toolset. Kochava AI Prompt unleashes the power of AI to understand multiple languages through the use of natural language processing for global marketers to access and analyze their data.

Kochava AI Prompt is powered by a secure connection to leading AI models to return a SQL script to run against the data within Kochava. None of our customers’ first-party data leaves Kochava, nor is it used to train large language models (LLMs) or Kochava models. Marketers can engage with their data via AI knowing that their (and their users’) privacy and intellectual property are 100% secure.

“The intersection of AI and advertising technologies to create a truly powerful experience across international audiences and cultures is at a tipping point,” said Jason Hicks, GM, Marketers Operating System (m/OS) at Kochava. “For any company looking to reach customers on a global scale, understanding and implementing AI that can handle the nuances of native languages is key while also leveling the playing field through natural language processing so you no longer need to be a data scientist or understand SQL to utilize your data.”

What Kochava AI Prompt Can Do for Marketers:

  • Have simple, secure conversations with their universe of first-party data in Kochava
  • Rapidly check key performance indicators and success metrics across campaigns
  • Get answers to complex data queries in just seconds without SQL
  • More easily curate customer segmentation lists for retargeting or suppression
  • And much more…

“The roll-out of Kochava AI Prompt represents an industry necessity for all marketers, making data-driven insights more approachable than ever and opening up new possibilities for digital marketing,” continued Hicks.

Kochava has been using machine learning and AI tooling across its diverse solutions suite, including its advanced attribution and fraud prevention products, for years. The company has also been adopting new technologies, such as leveraging LLMs to build new tools.

For example, Search Ads Maven powered by Kochava, a central data and intelligence hub to scale and optimize Apple Search Ads campaigns, features AI suggestions within its Keyword Analysis dashboard, enabling marketers to leverage Generative AI to find new keywords. AI can help marketers think outside the box to find those gems that standard sources aren’t turning up.

This week, Kochava AI Prompt will be released to a select group of customers.

An innovative clear-labeled ad measurement technology drives performance marketing on CTV and OTT platforms, and Retail Media Networks

CANNES, France — June 20, 2023 — Kochava, the leading real-time data solutions company for omni-channel attribution and measurement, today announced the Kochava Publisher’s Suite has been selected by and successfully integrated with major platforms and publishers.

“This marks a significant milestone for our Publisher’s Suite since we launched last year,” said Charles Manning, Founder and CEO, Kochava. “While Kochava has been a long-standing leader in the measurement and attribution category for advertisers, the Publisher’s Suite product is a relatively new technology offering and the market response and traction our publisher customers are experiencing has been nothing short of incredible.”

Kochava Publisher’s Suite has been selected by many of the major OTT and CTV platforms, including LG Ad Solutions, MNTN, NBCUniversal, Roku, Samsung Ads, and Spotify, to help them deliver outcomes-based measurement for their premium inventory. The Kochava Publisher’s Suite also seamlessly integrates with all other mobile measurement partners (MMPs) to offer a flexible solution for publishers.

The Kochava Publisher’s Suite provides clear-labeled ad measurement tech for owned and operated inventory across leading platform-direct and publisher-direct offerings. It helps advertisers understand how their premium inventory drives performance marketing—connecting the dots to business outcomes such as app installs, in-app engagements, website visits and conversions, and more. This, in turn, helps publishers prove the value of their inventory and drive growth with their demand-side partners. Other premium publisher tools in the suite include incremental lift analysis, identity solutions, and turnkey SKAN support for iOS-specific inventory. While the initial adoption of Publisher’s Suite has largely been focused around OTT and CTV the solution is applicable to Retail Media Networks and other premium inventory and walled-garden approaches.

Publishers and platforms that take advantage of the premium supply-side solutions can:

  • Better establish correlations between ad delivery and business outcomes for their advertisers
  • Command premium CPM, CPI, and CPA rates for their placements
  • Get credit for their inventory’s conversions across all devices and platforms
  • Enable their advertising partners to visualize their traffic alongside all of their other omni-channel media in their measurement partner dashboard

Leaders in digital advertising and measurement for app marketers and brands join forces

SANDPOINT, IDAHO and LONDON – February 14, 2023 – Kochava, the leading real-time data solutions company for omni-channel attribution and measurement, today announced that it and Machine Advertising have agreed to terms for the acquisition of Machine Advertising, a leader in app marketing technology.

The acquisition of Machine Advertising will enable Kochava to enhance the company’s measurement solutions with Machine’s Always-on Incremental Measurement (AIM) product and continue to increase its footprint in the EMEA region.

“Machine’s product focus to deliver always-on incrementality measurement  aligns perfectly with our own objectives to add instant value to our clients,” said Charles Manning, Founder and CEO of Kochava. “As a company built on customer-driven innovation, we are always looking for new best-in-class solutions to add to our solutions suite.”

Over the past several years, approaches to measure the effectiveness of digital advertising have been undergoing a significant transition. Performance-based and direct-response campaigns have traditionally been reliant on last-click attribution techniques. The changes in the privacy landscape have resulted in an increase in walled gardens where clicks are not being made available to advertisers and last-click measurement can not be used. For certain platforms, like iOS, a structural change has taken place to rely on alternative measurement mechanisms across the platform – SKAdNetwork.

Privacy changes have also given way to incremental measurement which is experiencing a resurgence in focus as an alternative to last-click attribution for media effectiveness, and can be used across any media treatment regardless of privacy constructs.

Traditional incrementality measurement has been a protracted process, delivering results 30-60 days after a campaign flight.  Measurement delays mean a general delay in optimizing campaigns. Today’s marketers have become accustomed to making daily or hourly changes to campaigns to better manage their resources and drive efficient results in real-time.

Throughout 2022, Kochava and Machine Advertising have collaborated to leverage the AIM product by Machine in concert with incremental lift analyses developed by Kochava for the company’s customers. The result is a productized approach to delivering always-on incremental measurement as an augmented view for Kochava Advertisers.  The AIM product has been built to work with Kochava as well as other measurement tool sets. It is completely agnostic of any mobile measurement partner (MMP) solution.

AIM is a powerful marketing mix modeling tool that helps advertisers drive better results by providing real-time, incremental insights. With AIM, advertisers can understand the impact of factors such as channel saturation and seasonality. AIM then delivers AI recommendations for optimal budget allocation. In the current times of economic uncertainty, AIM is a critical tool  to return on ad spend (ROAS) for CFOs forecasting around a recession environment.

“We are thrilled to join forces with Kochava, a company that shares our commitment to innovation and customer-centric values,” said Gary Danks, CEO of Machine Advertising. “Our products integrate seamlessly into Kochava’s already impressive portfolio, delivering unparalleled mobile measurement products and driving even greater success for our clients. Our team will support Kochava’s EMEA expansion plans, and being part of a larger organization allows us to take our vision to the next level and have a greater impact on the industry.”

A privacy-first approach to block sensitive location data in the Kochava Collective marketplace

SANDPOINT, Idaho — September 19, 2022 — Kochava, the leading real-time data solutions company for omni-channel attribution and measurement, today announced Privacy Block™ from the Kochava Collective, the world’s largest independent mobile-first data marketplace, is now available.

Privacy Block is built on privacy-safe zones established around sensitive locations that are personal and private. Using these safe zones, Privacy Block automatically removes location information from inside millions of sensitive location perimeter buffers within the US. By flagging and blocking this data, the Collective ensures that the data in the marketplace is blocked if it passes sensitive locations. Privacy Block technology accomplishes this while still enabling marketers to continue to gleen  meaningful insights through advertising and data-driven business decisions.

“For over a decade, Kochava has been an industry leader in setting the standard for privacy protection and data security, and we enable brands to protect the privacy of their customers,” said Brian Cox, GM, Kochava Collective. “Privacy has been and always will be a priority for Kochava and we’re excited Privacy Block is available to all of our data marketplace clients.”

Privacy Block is an always-on feature applied across all data related to sensitive locations. In collaboration with independent providers of points of interest (POI) identification, the sensitive location categorization enforced by Privacy Block includes, but is not limited to: health and wellness service centers and clinics, religious institutions, schools, financial credit institutions, federal buildings, correctional institutions, dependency and addiction treatment centers, homeless shelters, halfway houses and more.

“Mobile device platforms already require consent from end-users in order to gather location, but we are proactively taking consumer protection a step further,” continued Cox. “Privacy Block creates an extra layer of protection for sensitive location data so that it cannot be used, shared, or purchased from our Collective data marketplace.”

In addition to blocking precision geo data in the Collective data marketplace, Kochava is making Privacy Block available for use by other data brokers to block data from their marketplaces to ensure the greatest opportunity for industry-wide compliance with sensitive locations of precision geo data.

Program celebrates one-year milestone with new addition to its global roster

SANDPOINT, Idaho and TORONTO, Canada — August 10, 2022 — Kochava, the leading real-time data solutions company for omni-channel attribution and measurement, today announced Clue, a leading data and media partner for search, social, and programmatic advertising, as its newest Authorized Agency Partner.

“We’re excited to welcome Clue to the Authorized Agency Partner program,” said Jason Hicks, GM, Kochava’s Marketers Operating System. “We’ve achieved a great milestone of one-year since launching the rapidly growing program, and we look forward to continuing to help our partners enable brands with growth marketing.”

Clue collaborates with their clients on the data that matters most to them. They partner with businesses, brands, and agencies to navigate an always-on and constantly changing world so they can focus on growth.

“Our partners are reflections of ourselves,” commented Josh Alvernia, CEO and Co-Founder, Clue. “Kochava and Clue are committed to providing both the best measurement solutions and the best customer service to brands that are looking to succeed in the mobile ecosystem. More of our brand partners are launching mobile experiences for their customers than ever before. Kochava helps Clue measure the impact of our mobile campaigns with precision, both in and outside of Apple’s SKAdNetwork.”

There’s no question that the digital advertising industry is rapidly changing. With tech giants making profound changes to how advertisers obtain and use consumer data, they need mobile measurement partners and ad agencies to help them navigate changes in user consent and data privacy, identify audiences using privacy-first solutions and maximize available measurement tools to optimize their marketing ad spend. In working with advertisers with fewer resources, authorized partners can help take the lead in using measurement tools on the advertiser’s behalf.

Kochava announces new privacy-first approach to block health services locations from the Kochava Collective marketplace

SANDPOINT, Idaho — August 10, 2022 — Kochava, the leading real-time data solutions company for omni-channel attribution, measurement and data, today announced a new capability for the Kochava Collective, the largest independent data marketplace for connected devices. “Privacy Block” removes health services location data from the Kochava Collective marketplace. This new capability leverages a collaboration across multiple location insights partners who have independently identified health care services locations within the U.S.  The Kochava Collective Privacy Block will be made available in the Kochava Collective by the end of Q3, 2022.

Privacy Block aggregates health services locations which have been identified by a broad range of industry partners into a unified, super-set definition of health services locations. “Today, there are millions of locations that could be categorized as health care services locations in the U.S. and mobile devices pass in and out of the boundaries of these locations. There is no federal regulation or federal database which catalogs these locations to protect consumer privacy,” said Brian Cox, GM of the Kochava Collective. Furthermore, the regulatory landscape varies from state to state.  For example, the sale of marijuana, access to abortion services, and the general role of consent for gathering data from mobile devices differs dramatically among states. 

A composite block list is key to maximize consumer privacy amidst these variations.  By leveraging multiple vendor location definitions for what each vendor determines is a health services location, and blocking the onward transfer of this data, Privacy Block maximizes consumer privacy in a seamless and effective manner.  “We believe it’s important for the industry to be proactive and to collaborate on a unified health services location block list,” continued Cox. Kochava invites ecosystem vendors to register to participate with Privacy Block and contribute at https://kochava.com/privacy-block. In addition, those in the health services sector can register to block their location directly in Privacy Block.

The Kochava Collective marketplace buys location data from 3rd-party companies who represent that consent has been provided by consumers for the purpose of gathering their location data. The location data is then made available to the advertising ecosystem via the Kochava Collective marketplace for a variety of advertising purposes, including measuring advertising effectiveness in driving people to physical stores or locations and to observe the effectiveness of billboard advertising. As an aggregator of location data from a variety of 3rd-party data suppliers, the company believes it is important to block information relating to health services locations prior to any use cases related to advertising. 

Cox further summarized, “Mobile devices prompt for consent to gather location information today as a function of the mobile operating system (Apple iOS and Google Android). Mobile devices cannot track location without first gaining consent from the consumer.”  

Nonetheless, even if consumers previously consented to share their location data, Privacy Block adds an extra layer of protection as part of the Kochava Collective commitment to consumer privacy. 

“Privacy Block and the related collaboration with partners is good for privacy and good for business. The goal is quality, consented, privacy-safe data and this new capability helps further deliver on that objective,” continued Cox.
