StoriesTM is the latest generation creative management platform that uses a patented model to assemble interactive and personalized videos.
Connected-Stories is made up of three main components: Creative Studio, Creative Personalization and Analytics.
Through the Creative Studio it is possible to assemble any type of creativity and format quickly and easily, using the different templates offered by the platform.
To customize the contents of each creative, there are two tools, the storyboard and the journey designer (both present within Creative Personalization ), which allow you to enter rules and conditions based on user behaviour and third-party data.
With the Analytics dashboard, it is possible to measure the performance of the campaign and obtain real-time data on the impact of each individual element of creativity.
All these elements allow each team to obtain the data they need to make informed decisions about creativity, media buying and planning in general.

Workflow

consumer journey (Awareness, Engagement, Conversion..) and defining the relevant set of messages according to each stage of the journey.
After defining the journey and its stages, the creative team can assemble the units and define where to place them in sequence. Connected-Stories AI, according to
campaign's objective, then suggests the setup for the conditions at each status of the sequence. This is what we call the Connected-Stories Approach.
The workflow is then divided into 4 stages: Plan, Create, Deliver, Live.
