How Instreamatic.ai Voice-Activated Advertising Technology Works

Users were served a short audio tease ending with a question regarding their interest to learn more. The teaser was served at the launch of the radio stream.

If a user expressed interest, AI responded with more information about a product and opened a target web page.

In the case of ‘no interest’, AI delivered a short audio including brand name and then the user was returned back to content.

The goal of the campaign was to increase awareness of the target audience about a new debit card product called NEXT MasterCard.

Alfa-Bank was the first advertiser to utilize the new Voice-Activated Advertising technology made possible by Instreamatic.ai in Russia.

The ad was delivered 500,474 times, 5.06% of all listeners answered positively, which is 68% higher than expected.
