Conversational refinement: The advertiser iterates using the integrated side chat drawer.
How Content Is Generated (The 5 Intelligence Layers)
To ensure your ads feel relevant and engaging, Abby processes five layers of information before recommending creatives:
Landing Page Context: Scans destination pages for product highlights, value propositions, and calls to action.
Brand Details: Uses your selected audience, brand voice, and language settings.
Taboola Best Practices: Applies ecosystem insights (such as high contrast, clear focal points, and human-centric imagery).
Category Benchmarks: Incorporates messaging patterns from top-performing campaigns in your vertical.
Account Performance History: Uses top historical ads from your account to maintain brand consistency.
UI Indicators & Features
As you review generated ads in the Realize Console, look out for these visual indicators:
Purple Frame: Indicates an asset generated directly by Abby that has not been modified.
White Frame: Appears as soon as you manually edit a headline, description, or image, highlighting your custom changes.
Dynamic Keyword Insertion (DKI): You may see placeholders like [City] or [Region] in headline suggestions. This is an intentional performance feature that automatically personalizes the headline to the reader's local city or region when the ad is displayed live.
