Solution Overview

Problem

Traditional social media marketing campaigns rely on historical purchasing behavior, failing to accurately predict audience response and often waste resources by advertising irrelevant content, which can annoy segments of the target audience.

Innovation Solution

Utilize AI models to generate diverse AI personas representing different audience segments, simulating responses, ratings, and feedback to evaluate marketing campaigns before release, incorporating textual data from various sources to enhance campaign effectiveness.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional marketing campaigns use historical purchasing behavior to target customers, then customers who purchased similar items in the past are reached, but customers interested in different styles are not engaged and resources are wasted

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemarketing campaign effectivenessVSAvoidwasted advertising resources
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the target audience into multiple AI personas representing different demographic groups, interests, and behaviors. Instead of treating all customers uniformly based on historical purchases, the system creates distinct persona profiles (e.g., fashion-conscious millennials, budget-oriented families) and evaluates campaign effectiveness for each segment separately, enabling targeted optimization without wasting resources on uninterested groups.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary evaluation of marketing campaigns by simulating audience responses through AI personas before actual campaign deployment. This advance testing allows businesses to identify potentially ineffective campaign elements and adjust them beforehand, preventing waste of advertising resources on campaigns that would fail to engage target audiences.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Productivity

If marketing campaigns are created without predicting audience response, then campaigns can be launched quickly, but effectiveness cannot be predicted and money is wasted on ignored advertisements

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecampaign launch speedVSAvoidcampaign effectiveness prediction
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent creates virtual copies of real audience members through AI personas that simulate human responses to marketing content. These digital twins replicate demographic characteristics, interests, and behavioral patterns, allowing the system to test campaign effectiveness in a virtual environment before real-world deployment, thus predicting outcomes without slowing down the actual campaign launch.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The AI persona system acts as an intermediary between the marketing campaign and the actual target audience. Instead of directly measuring real audience responses (which would require actual campaign deployment), the system uses AI personas as a mediator to simulate and predict responses, providing effectiveness measurements without delaying campaign launch.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Area of stationary object

If advertisements are pushed to all social media platforms to maximize reach, then more potential customers are contacted, but consumers not interested in the content are annoyed and engagement decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadvertising reachVSAvoidaudience annoyance and disengagement
Core Design Contradiction:
Area of stationary objectVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by tailoring marketing campaign content to match the specific characteristics and interests of different AI persona segments. Instead of using a uniform advertising approach across all platforms and audiences, the system customizes campaign elements (imagery, messaging, timing) to align with each persona's preferences, ensuring relevant content delivery that avoids annoying disinterested consumers while maintaining broad reach.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

Certain aspects provide a computer-implemented method for evaluating social media marketing campaigns using artificial intelligence (AI). The method comprises using a large language model (LLM) to generate a plurality of AI personas. Each AI persona represents a different segment of a target audience of a marketing campaign. The method uses a transformer model, a decision tree-based model, and a natural language processing (NLP) model to predict a response, a rating, and a feedback to the marketing campaign for each AI persona that represents a different segment of the target audience. The predicted responses, ratings, and feedback for the AI personas that represent different segments of the target audience are aggregated to form an evaluation of the marketing campaign for each segment of the target audience. The method sends the evaluation of the marketing campaign to a user.
