Advanced AI Solution Offers Enhanced Controls, Transparency, and Reporting across Reels for Brands

Today, Zefr, the leader in brand safety and suitability technology, is proud to announce our AI-Powered Brand Suitability Solution is now available across Facebook and Instagram Reels. This marks a significant evolution in ensuring brand safety and suitability across Meta, providing brands with unparalleled transparency into their content adjacencies on Reels - a video-rich format that demands the most sophisticated technology and AI for scaled measurement.

By leveraging the massive global scale of Reels and having the tools to gauge brand suitability, advertisers can explore new reach opportunities and engage a more expansive audience, boosting their overall media efficiencies. Zefr's cross-industry collaboration with both Meta and the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) ensures that ad-adjacent content is aligned with GARM's safety and suitability standards.

Zefr's brand suitability verification solution for Reels provides advertisers with an intuitive Atrium dashboard, showcasing content-level examples, risk levels and impression data aligned to the GARM Safety and Suitability standards, categorizing content based on risk level. We also collaborate with Meta to ensure brand interests remain safeguarded throughout the ecosystem.

"As we look to the future of the digital landscape, we're ensuring our global brand partners receive unparalleled transparency and reporting across the world's largest social platforms. Our collaboration with Meta in developing this independent, AI-powered solution for Reels underscores our commitment in evolving the responsible marketing landscape," says Richard Raddon, Co-Founder & Co-CEO of Zefr.

Samantha Stetson, VP, Client Council and Industry Trade Relations at Meta, said, "Working with partners like Zefr has been instrumental in providing advertisers with critical brand suitability solutions like third party verification. Our cross-industry efforts represent significant progress in our broader brand safety and suitability efforts, offering advertisers both control and transparency on the suitability of their campaigns – and we are thrilled to now offer these solutions on such Reels, an important and growing placement for clients."

REPUBLIK, a global technology company building new ways for people to interact, proudly announces the successful conclusion of its $6 Million Seed funding round. The round saw participation from leading investors, including OKX Ventures, 6th Man Ventures, Arcane Ventures, CMS Holdings, Comma3 Ventures, Define Ventures, Enjin, FBG Capital, HTX Ventures, Mirana Ventures, Oracles Investment Group, Signum Capital, Sora Ventures, and UOB Venture Management.

The capital raised is instrumental in building REPUBLIK's platform and developing cutting-edge, web3 creator tools on the blockchain. Currently in beta across web app, iOS, and Android platforms, REPUBLIK has garnered substantial traction, empowering creators with new ways to interact and get rewarded for their contributions to the platform.

"For too long people have given their time, attention and creativity to existing platforms for almost nothing in return. REPUBLIK is going to change that by ensuring that the value of the community is fairly distributed. We're excited to have investors who share in our vision and partners that are helping us build a true community-owned platform," expressed Daniel He, REPUBLIK's CEO.

Unlike traditional social platforms, where monetization options are fragmented and often come with high fees, REPUBLIK uses Web3 technologies to streamline the entire process, drastically reducing costs borne by Creators. This results in Creators keeping a significantly larger share of their earnings, but also enables a token-based reward system that allows everyone to earn for interacting with content, referring friends and supporting Creators.

While legacy platforms capitalize on user attention without direct compensation, REPUBLIK believes that online communities have great value, and that this value should be fairly distributed to the people who helped create it. As such, XP in the app represents how much value a user brings, while RPK will be a freely traded token representing the value of the community. The more XP a user has, the more RPK will be distributed to them.

Firefly

Adobe is developing high-quality Foundation Models across media types. Today, Adobe announced Firefly Image 2 Model, Adobe Firefly Vector Model and Adobe Firefly Design Model, as the next major releases in its family of creative generative AI models. Firefly Image 2 is the next generation imaging model that brings a new level of creative control and quality to users.

The new Firefly Design Model powers the instant generation of amazing quality template designs such as flyers, posters, invites and more directly within Express with the new Text to Template capability.

Content Credentials – which serve as a digital “nutrition label” to AI-generated assets – are automatically attached to Firefly outputs and can show information like the creator’s name, date, edits made and tools used. At MAX, Publicis Groupe will preview its vision for deploying Content Credentials at enterprise scale for the advertising and creative industry to restore trust online with major brands.

Adobe Express Innovations

Express users can now use Generative Fill, the creative co-pilot powered by Firefly, to easily insert, remove, or replace objects, people and more in any image using just a description. The new Text to Template generative AI capabilities, built on the new Firefly Design Model, makes getting started with a design even easier, giving users the ability to generate extraordinary, editable templates using just a text description. Translate spares users time localizing content with the choice of 45 languages. The new Drawing and Painting capabilities add over 50 fun multicolor paint and decorative brushes, mimicking charcoal, pencil, watercolor textures, plus student-friendly drawing templates, available in the Express for Education offering, to make designing beautiful effects like flowers, hearts and more, simple and quick.

New AI features use natural language to allow any user to automate more of their everyday work via the UiPath Business Automation Platform

UiPath, a leading enterprise automation software company, today at its global user conference, FORWARD VI, announced its platform’s latest artificial intelligence (AI) features with Autopilot™, an integration of Generative AI, Specialized AI, and automation that allows any user to automate work fast using natural language.

UiPath Autopilot can transform paper documents to automation-powered apps with a single click, enabling digital transformation that has eluded enterprises for too long. The new AI features of the UiPath Business Automation Platform reveal untapped automation prospects and process enhancement opportunities, and guarantee efficient development of automations, all anchored in a foundation of enterprise-grade capabilities.

AI-powered Autopilot capabilities include:

• For developers – empowers both professional and citizen automation developers to create automations, code, and expressions with natural language. In UiPath Apps, Generative AI-powered experiences help developers create workflows, generate expressions, build automations, and even create automation-powered apps from PDFs or images.
• For everyone – Autopilot for UiPath Assistant provides an AI companion to partner with any user to tackle tasks, and will include Clipboard AI, a time-saving feature for copying and pasting complex data between applications. These AI tools rapidly decrease the time typically needed to accomplish data-intensive work and tedious tasks. Business users can also use API and UI automation to update line of business systems to automate more work under human supervision.
• For automation testers – Autopilot for Test Suite accelerates every phase of the testing lifecycle, generates tests from requirement, and surfaces actionable insights from execution results.
• For business analysts – Autopilot for Process Mining enables business analysts to use natural language to filter, summarize, and create dashboards for their automation opportunities. Also, Autopilot for Communications Mining gives automation center of excellence teams comprehensive tools to uncover automation opportunities through natural language prompts.

“Since ChatGPT launched late last year, there has been an influx of new app-specific copilots. These are immensely powerful for summarizing and creating content, and I expect we’ll continue to see every app create a copilot,” said Flo Ye, Director, Automation Solutions at dentsu. “But there is a huge unaddressed opportunity with these GenAI-powered copilots: they enable brainstorming, but not action. That’s the beauty of UiPath Autopilot – it unites the patchwork of app-specific copilots and empowers you to take action based on your specific business rules and application stacks. In other words, Autopilot works alongside humans the way that we actually work, across applications and contexts. I’m particularly excited about how Autopilot for StudioX will continue to lower the barriers to automation entry for our cohort of citizen developers at dentsu.”

“The new Autopilot capabilities at UiPath enable citizen development in a novel way. Autopilot for Studio, in particular, means that learning programming skills, low code or not, is becoming less critical than learning about technology capabilities,” said Hemant Porwal, Executive Vice President, Supply Chain and Operations at Wesco. “We are already incorporating this vision into our next wave of citizen developer training.”

UiPath enables AI at work through intelligent automation solutions built with best-in-class Generative AI and a library of Specialized AI models adhering to principles of open, flexible, and responsible AI. With an open approach, UiPath empowers customers to leverage the entire AI ecosystem to devise AI-driven automations, delivering actionable, measurable results.

The company also announced at FORWARD VI its UiPath AI Trust Layer, a management framework for the governance of data, user interactions with UiPath Gen AI features, and large language models. The AI Trust Layer gives customers the necessary confidence, visibility, and governance to responsibly manage the use of Gen AI within UiPath.

“By taking a user’s words, screenshots, or PDFs from paper documents as an input, Autopilot for Apps can create a robust automation workflow or interfaces for automations. This enables ‘one-click digital transformation’ for organizations by taking automated action,” said Graham Sheldon, Chief Product Officer at UiPath. “UiPath can operationalize the transformative force of AI through automation, seamlessly integrating intelligence into everyday operations, automating all knowledge work, upleveling employees, and revolutionizing entire industries with AI at work. And importantly, the UiPath AI Trust Layer will allow customers to use these new AI capabilities with confidence knowing their data is secure.”

The latest AI innovations from UiPath provide users critical context that acts as a compass for the next best actions, such as a chat with a customer for a service modification, paying a supplier’s invoice in a new operating region, or taking the pain out of completing work travel expenses.

“Automation is the best path to deliver on whatever AI conceives,” Sheldon said.

With more than 1.6 million learners, UiPath Academy is expanding its curriculum to include Specialized AI training and certification that practitioners, customers, and partners can tap into

UiPath, a leading enterprise automation software company, today announced the next evolution of UiPath Academy, the world’s first free and open online training platform for automation professionals. With more than 1.6 million learners today, UiPath Academy is now bringing tailored Specialized AI training curricula and certification opportunities to its learning community, reinforcing its dedication to upskill and reskill all generations of workers and equipping them with skills needed for real-world automation and AI projects at work.

Automation and AI are crucial for digital transformation success and effective training and certification programs, alongside diverse talent sourcing approaches, are essential. But according to a new IDC Vendor Spotlight, sponsored by UiPath*, Closing the AI and Automation Skill Gap in Modern Enterprises with Outcome-Focused Training and Certification, October 2023, executives at large enterprises across the globe are facing unprecedented pressures around adopting artificial intelligence, addressing ever-increasing data complexity, and managing a growing skills gap. In fact, according to the IDC Spotlight, 47% of North America enterprises identify a lack of necessary IT skills as a key impediment to successful automation implementation and 70% of global organizations have achieved less than 50% progress in fulfilling their front-office business automation objectives.

Despite the growing need for reskilling and job training, educational opportunities and training are not easily available or accessible for most people. UiPath is committed to investing in the future workforce through its UiPath Academy, which is focused on training and reskilling for the jobs of today and the jobs of tomorrow.

“We’re experiencing a technological paradigm shift that necessitates changes in the workforce, particularly in automation and AI. While companies seek to automate processes across the enterprise, the talent pool required to manage new AI capabilities is still shallow,” said Hedley Potts, UiPath Vice President of Customer Experience & Enablement. “That’s why UiPath is constantly investing in our learning and enablement capabilities. These enhancements to our training and certification programs further our commitment to empowering people with the in-demand automation and AI skills to succeed in newly emerging careers and remain competitive in their current roles.”

In addition to the new Specialized AI curriculum and certification, UiPath Academy has evolved to include the following offerings:

• Navigate Your Path with the Career Guidance Survey: UiPath has introduced the latest Generative AI tool – a personal Career Guidance Survey. This tool will guide learners to their ideal role in automation based on their background and interests and taking into consideration unique strengths and ambitions. The tool takes the user’s input and suggests an automation role to pursue.

• Discover Career Paths in Automation: To provide learners with an in-depth understanding of the world of automation and AI, UiPath has prepared extensive documentation on each of its core roles, including Automation Developer, Business Analyst, Solution Architect, Infrastructure Engineer, and Specialized AI Professional.

• Learn About the UiPath Educational Ecosystem: Learners can immerse themselves in our vibrant community, including UiPath Forum discussions, joining our UiPath Community, or earning prestigious Certifications.

Get Certified at UiPath FORWARD VI and TechEd Day

UiPath FORWARD attendees can get certified for free during the event in the following roles: UiPath Automation Developer Associate, UiPath Automation Developer Professional, UiPath Automation Business Analyst, and UiPath Specialist AI Professional. UiPath certification is now the industry standard for automation education.

Unmatched Commitment to Democratizing Automation and AI

UiPath is also launching an “Elevate Your Skills Program,” a 10-day learning sprint that kicks off on October 23, for professionals that want to develop in-demand automation and AI skills. This program includes a tailored UiPath Academy learning plan with free, on-demand courses, a community of learners to collaborate with, and office hours with experts in multiple time zones. 

Early Generative AI adopters see a 12% return on Generative AI investments

Deloitte Digital's new research on Generative AI in Marketing Content Production reveals that Generative Artificial Intelligence is already reshaping content production for marketing, with 26% of surveyed marketers already using Generative AI, with another 45% planning to by the end of 2024.

The research reveals content marketing has become vital to the digital marketing strategies of 8 in 10 surveyed leaders, with its importance growing between 2022 and 2023.  

The demand for personalized, timely, and relevant content has presented organizations with significant challenges. The research reveals the demand for marketing content grew by 1.5x in 2023, but marketing teams were only able to meet that demand 55% of the time. Marketers leveraging Generative AI can potentially get ahead of that demand by using Generative AI to support higher quality, greater volume of content, and higher employee productivity. 

"Generative AI solutions are not just about keeping up with content demands; they are about staying ahead of them," said Mike Brinker, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and Content Studio leader at Deloitte Digital.

This study engaged 650 leaders from U.S. companies in the business-to-consumer and business-to-business sectors, each with 100 or more employees and annual revenues exceeding $50 million. These leaders represented a diverse array of industries. All respondents held senior managerial positions or higher in e-commerce, marketing, or product marketing departments, with responsibilities spanning communications, content creation/marketing, and editorial/publishing, ensuring a comprehensive and pertinent dataset for the study. 

Key findings from the research include: 

• A 54% increase in the volume of content needed to be produced in the last year.
• Sixty-five percent of companies are very or extremely concerned about intellectual property or legal risks of using Generative AI.
• Generative AI users report saving an average of 11.4 hours per week, enabling them to focus on higher-value or more strategic tasks. 

"In today's hyperconnected digital landscape, content marketing is the backbone of successful customer engagement. It's not just about creating content; it's about orchestrating a seamless journey from idea to delivery, ensuring that every piece of content contributes to the narrative that captures hearts and minds," said Beth Adams, managing director, Marketing & CX Transformation and Global Adobe Alliance Generative AI Leader at Deloitte Digital.

Deloitte Digital's Content Studio is leading the way in transforming content creation and supply chains.

• The $6 billion milestone comes just a few months after Kajabi celebrated $5 billion in GMV

• Every 24 hours, creators earn over $5 million through Kajabi, with the average creator taking home $37,000 annually

• The top 3 industries generating GMV are Health and Fitness ($920 million lifetime), Personal Development ($770 million lifetime) and Business Finance ($850 million lifetime)

• Kajabi creators earn over 6 figures with as few as 350 customers

• In recognition of $6 billion, the company is sharing the stories and triumphs of several unique and inspiring Kajabi creators

Kajabi, the leading creator commerce platform, announced today that its creators have surpassed $6 billion in gross merchandise volume (GMV), also known as creator revenue, just a few months after reaching the $5 billion mark. Since 2017, Kajabi's GMV has increased by over 1,500 percent.

Kajabi creators continue to benefit from the platform's direct-to-creator philosophy, which helps entrepreneurs own their audiences, brands, and revenue in a way that creates consistent income independent of social media platforms and brand deals.

Matt Steffanina, Founder of DNCR Academy, comments on how moving his audience off social platforms helped him reach new financial goals, "At one stage, I was averaging 30 million views on my YouTube videos, which is just unbelievable but while my channel growth was huge, I wasn't able to monetize much of that content effectively. I was waiting for brand deals or for algorithm changes. Building my community and being able to move my followers off social platforms to a subscription model like Kajabi was a game changer that allowed me to earn more than seven figures and enable me to control my future."

Since Kajabi's $5 billion GMV milestone, it has launched several disruptive innovations, including a series of generative AI tools that have reduced creator time spent on content creation by 90 percent; its own payment processing solution, Kajabi Payments, has processed over $25 million in creator revenue since its launch in August; and the branded mobile app, which allows creators to build their own mobile app experiences without technical complications or a high price tag.

As Kajabi entrepreneurs march towards $9 billion in revenue by the end of 2024, Kajabi remains dedicated to helping them monetize their audiences regardless of their social followings, turn their side hustles into profitable full-time businesses, and keep 100 percent of their earnings.

Julie Soul, CEO of Soul Sparklettes Art, an online art project program for homeschooled students, comments on how much she earns with a relatively small social following, "When I joined Kajabi in August 2020, I gave myself 30 days to create and build a business that would make money, and that I was proud of. On my first day I sold 100 art bundles. With Kajabi's support my current revenue is roughly $700,000 a year - despite a relatively modest number of social media followers, and now we're about to reach the $1 million mark!"

Karla Lim, Founder of Written Word Calligraphy, a calligraphy school, comments on how Kajabi supported her passive income stream, "My business initially relied heavily on creating wedding invitations, which was very time intensive. When I became a mom for the first time, I knew I needed to diversify my income to balance my work life. With Kajabi's support, I am now able to earn a six-figure income in a more passive way, which allows me to run my company in a way that works for me."

Next year, the company will take Kajabi Payments global, prioritizing new markets, including Canada, Australia, the UK, and the EU. The newly released solution helps creators easily manage every aspect of their payment processing, from collecting payments to handling refunds. The additions of Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Afterpay have boosted creator conversion rates by up to 10 percent, adding thousands to creators' bottom lines.

With nearly 40 percent of Kajabi creator content consumed on mobile, Kajabi is also expanding its Branded Mobile App to enhance the user experience for the millions who consume content on Kajabi via a mobile device. Launched in May, the custom-branded app gives creators a user-friendly, affordable, build-your-own offering that allows them to extend their brands beyond desktop and truly own the relationship with their audiences. In 2024, Kajabi will add push notifications as well as community and livestream features so users can more easily engage in discussions and join live classes, meetups, and webinars on the go.

Rob Lennon, AI Whisperer "Being at the forefront of an emerging and very fast-paced industry, I knew my knowledge was in high demand. I needed a platform that was simple so I could spend my time doing what I love most. This is my first year as a solopreneur - I crossed $500,000 in the eleventh month of operating my business at 96% margins. I aim to be above a million in revenue next year with Kajabi's support."

"Hitting $5 billion in creator revenue a few months ago was a massive moment but to be back here again so quickly, with another reason to celebrate our creators, has exceeded our expectations," said Ahad Khan, CEO of Kajabi. "We put creators at the forefront of everything we do and this commitment permeates across every meeting we attend, product we launch, and investment we make. It's incredible to think that together, we're already starting to carve a path to $9 billion. In the meantime, we're continuing to pioneer even more products and services that solely focus on helping our creators turn their knowledge, experience, and expertise into thriving online businesses. Their success is our success."
