Explainable AI for Transparent Campaign Management
Unlike opaque AI solutions, IAS Agent prioritizes transparency by providing clear explanations for every recommendation, allowing users to hover over suggestions in the IAS UI to understand the rationale. Marketers retain full control to customize, override, or adopt proposals, ensuring decisions align with specific needs while benefiting from rigorous, data-grounded intelligence.
Key Features Driving Efficiency and Insights
IAS Agent enhances brand governance and workflows through several core capabilities. It offers transparent self-reporting that details the reasoning behind outputs, enabling confident decision-making. For efficiency, it generates AI-driven recommendations for brand safety and suitability settings with minimal input, achieving up to 50% improvement in setup time. The tool provides instant insights by automatically detecting trends and patterns across dashboards, delivering performance analysis up to 5x faster than manual methods. Campaign activation is simplified via natural language interactions, offering guidance for pre-campaign configurations accessible to users of any skill level.
Srishti Gupta, Chief Product Officer at Integral Ad Science, described the vision: "IAS Agent was designed to be a marketer's advertising compass. It guides decisions with clarity and uncovers deep, comprehensive insights that would otherwise remain hidden—turning those insights into action, in real-time, so marketers can boost performance instantly," said Srishti Gupta, Chief Product Officer at Integral Ad Science. "And this is just the start. IAS Agent will continue to expand its agentic capabilities to improve workflow and unlock value through AI supply path insights, tagging activation, and campaign settings assistance. This ongoing innovation reflects our commitment to providing advertisers with the trusted, transparent, and actionable data they need to drive superior campaign results and stay ahead in a complex digital landscape."
Jeff Omoregie, EVP of Unified TAAG at Publicis Media, highlighted practical benefits: "In today's complex media landscape, ensuring both brand safety and performance requires a significant investment of time and resources. IAS Agent meaningfully accelerates that process by uncovering deeper insights and enabling teams to act on them instantly," said Jeff Omoregie, EVP of Unified TAAG at Publicis Media. "The ability to instantly surface transparent, data-driven recommendations in real time will help reduce ad waste and drive stronger performance outcomes for our clients and their campaigns."
