Inspiration

Ad teams often waste budget before realizing a creative is weak or fatigued. We wanted to build a copilot that helps marketers act earlier.

What it does

Smartex scores creatives by campaign KPI, detects fatigue/wearout, explains performance, and recommends practical creative changes such as cleaner layouts, stronger hooks, better CTAs, or new asset variants.

How we built it

We combined KPI-aware ML models, day-7 performance signals, fatigue detection, OCR/layout features, gaze-inspired analysis, explainability tools, and an LLM agent that turns model outputs into clear marketing recommendations.

Challenges we ran into

Avoiding leakage, handling misleading dataset variables, making recommendations realistic, and translating technical features into useful creative advice.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We built an end-to-end creative intelligence system: scoring, fatigue monitoring, recommendations, explanations, and a dashboard/agent experience.

What we learned

Good ad intelligence is not just prediction. It needs context, uncertainty, explainability, and actionable recommendations.

What's next for Smartex

With real edit histories and A/B test feedback, Smartex could evolve into a contextual bandit/RL system for continuously improving creatives.
