Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional media campaigns are inefficient due to inaccurate demographic targeting and the inability to dynamically optimize content distribution based on real-time data, leading to suboptimal advertising placement.

Innovation Solution

A content optimization system that utilizes a processor and non-transitory storage medium to receive content characteristics and goals, segment targets based on demographic vectors, generate an allocation optimization model, present content, and re-optimize based on viewing data to improve targeting accuracy and efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If broad demographics are used for media planning, then media plans can be developed to reach target audiences, but the mapping to actual audiences is inaccurate and real-time optimization is not possible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaudience targeting accuracyVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the audience into specific groups based on multiple attributes (location, device, time, content preferences) rather than using broad demographics. This allows precise targeting of individual audience segments with customized content, improving measurement precision while managing complexity through structured segmentation approaches.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces multiple new dimensions for audience segmentation beyond traditional demographics, including geographic location, device type, time of day, and content preferences. This multi-dimensional approach enables accurate real-time optimization by considering numerous factors simultaneously, resolving the contradiction between precision and complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Productivity

If conventional media campaigns are used, then advertisements can be placed according to media plans, but dynamic optimization based on real-time data is not possible

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecampaign optimization efficiencyVSAvoidreal-time data response time
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The patent implements dynamic media planning by continuously adjusting content allocation based on real-time viewing data and audience behavior. The system transitions from static media plans to dynamic optimization that adapts to changing conditions, improving productivity while responding to time-sensitive data through automated real-time adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

Solution Approach 2:

The patent incorporates feedback loops that monitor viewing data, engagement metrics, and campaign performance in real-time. This feedback mechanism enables continuous optimization by using actual audience responses to adjust content delivery, maximizing productivity efficiency while maintaining real-time responsiveness through automated feedback-driven adjustments.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

3Measurement precision

If content is presented to all targets, then content distribution is simple, but reach and frequency goals cannot be optimized

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereach and frequency targetingVSAvoidallocation optimization complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by customizing content allocation to specific audience segments based on their unique characteristics and preferences. Instead of uniform content distribution, the system tailors content selection and delivery parameters to local audience segments, achieving precise reach and frequency targeting while managing complexity through localized customization strategies.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

Systems and methods for tracking impressions across a plurality of platforms are described. For example, a method may include receiving information indicating a plurality of outputs of content via a plurality of platforms. The plurality of platforms may comprise different platform types. Impression information for the content may be stored across the plurality of platforms. Based on the impression information, one or more additional outputs of the content, via the plurality of platforms, may be caused.
