Shirofune Introduces New Evaluation Features for I’m Creative
In a significant update to its AI creative analysis tool, I’m Creative, Shirofune Co., Ltd. has rolled out a new feature termed the
Manual Evaluation Function. This addition empowers users to set their own evaluation criteria for ad creatives, beyond the traditional metrics based on automatic evaluation from media data.
Background: The Need for Customized Evaluation
Previously, I’m Creative relied on automated evaluations based on metrics such as Cost Per Action (CPA) and Click-Through Rate (CTR) fetched from media platforms. These automatic assessments facilitated a basic categorization of ad creatives into 'good' or 'bad'.
Standard Analytical Approach (Automated Evaluation)
- - Automated evaluation based on single media indicators like CPA, CTR, and CV numbers.
- - Classification of creatives into 'good' or 'bad' based on set metrics.
However, feedback from users indicated a strong desire for a more personalized evaluation suited to individual standards.
Users’ Specific Requests
Examples of user needs included:
- - Evaluation based on Conversion Rate Value (CTRV).
- - Combining multiple metrics like impression counts and CPA for nuanced analysis.
- - Assessment based on offline conversion metrics that closely reflect business outcomes.
- - Comparative analysis of competitors' creatives.
It became evident that a one-size-fits-all approach to automatic evaluation was inadequate, which led to the introduction of the Manual Evaluation Function.
New Features: Manual Evaluation
Customize Evaluation
Users can toggle the
Manual Evaluation mode to independently assign ratings of 'good' or 'bad' for each creative. This allows for classification and analysis based on distinct standards rather than relying solely on media-generated data.
Business Outcome-Oriented Analysis
In this new mode, analyses aren't just restricted to media metrics. Users can evaluate creatives based on more relevant Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) tied to business results like offline conversions, customer retention rates, and sales contracts. This approach helps uncover the characteristics of creatives that effectively contribute to meaningful business outcomes.
Competitive Analysis
Users can now upload competitor creatives and apply manual evaluations to understand current trends in the market. By analyzing successful elements in competitive ads, users can glean insights that inform their own creative improvement efforts.
