Story Value Engine

Thanks to our Story Value Engine, we can predict the effectiveness of your content strategy, which helps to create the best stories to support your business strategy. Our hungry Story Value Engine makes it possible to make a predictive calculation. So, for example, it will be able to predict how a particular author will perform when writing about a specific topic.

Decisions

Decisions is an AI-powered feature, designed to support editors and journalists in making smarter, faster and more confident decisions.

The tool turns complex data into actionable guidance, helping newsrooms move from dashboards to strategic decisions.

At crucial moments during your working day, the assistant can summarise what has changed, highlight what matters most, and suggest the next steps. It can also join the editorial conversation: interpreting results, identifying growth opportunities and helping shape strategic decisions.

Smartify

Smartify is not a single product or feature, it’s a technology that makes any data collection out there smart. So, even if you use a different data tool than smartocto, you will be able to use Smartify.

Animation - Smartify explained

Based on your business models, we provide notifications, daily digest, summaries and more that help you get from data to action. They are little nudges, reminders, reports and more that help you interpret and understand your data. And the flexibility of the system allows you to adjust it to your specific needs. It’s basically reversed engineering: you tell the tool what you want, and Smartify will give you the best possible action that fits your wish.

Smartify can do 3 things:

  1. Match

Focusing on AI-assisted decision making is the next big step in analytics. This is something we have been working on for years and the first results are groundbreaking. It will definitely change the way newsrooms and content marketing teams work. We have already implemented it with several big publishers and have seen immediate effects on all focused metrics. It is interesting to see how something so simple can have such a big impact.
