How This Startup Uses AI to Deliver ROI-based Creative Intelligence

RAD Ai

By David Willey, Benzinga Interested in investing in the RAD AI campaign? Click here to get started! Marketing has sometimes been cited as a historically inefficient industry as reportedly up to 33% of marketing budgets get misspent on ineffective advertising strategies. Critics say that these approaches often rely on biased opinions or bad data, and end up with poor targeting that wastes the marketing efforts. Careless marketing can come across as inauthentic and make consumers mistrust and avoid buying from brands. Various challenges with existing marketing methods bolster the growth of the global marketing technology (MarTech) sector, which grew to $321 billion in 2021. Interest is particularly focused on the contribution that AI can make. AI is rapidly changing marketing strategies, and RAD AI is leading the charge. MarTech company RAD AI (which stands for Remove All Doubt) looks to be at the heart of the action on AI-based marketing. The California based company is solving industry problems with AI that automates ROI-based creative decisions as well as content strategy. The proprietary AI uses information from hundreds of API’s to provide scalable, unbiased creative intelligence that saves time and produces marketing strategies that perform quantifiably better for companies. The company is led by CEO Jeremy Barnett, a 3x founder with over 15 years in the digital media sector, and Company President Bradley Silver, founder of content curation platform “Atomic Reach,” who has years of research experience solving AI content related problems. Also on the team is Founding Advisor Alex Wissner-Gross PhD., an award-winning computer scientist from Harvard and MIT with over 23 patents. Dr. Wissner-Gross has founded, advised, and invested in 27 technology companies that together are valued at over $850 million. Why Remove All Doubt? Understanding the emotional levers that trigger marketing ROI is arguably among the most important criteria when putting content in front of audiences. In the past, marketers used a combination of hunches and biased opinions derived from historical campaign performance. RAD AI understands the emotional levers that trigger ROI and removes the biased opinions associated with who, what, where, when and why for each client's creative strategy. By understanding the audience at the persona level, RAD AI delivers the optimal creative/content strategy before, during and after each campaign to produce quantifiably better ROI. With the rise of generative AI, digital marketing content is radically less expensive to produce, but sometimes at the cost of human authenticity. On the other hand, the best conventional marketing programs understandably offer high authenticity, but come with expensive content creation costs. RAD AI combines the best of human authenticity and AI optimization to transform the content creation space. In the process, RAD AI is solving a number of problems that plague conventional marketing programs. First, RAD AI ensures that its client campaigns have the same level of intuitive and quantifiable returns on investment as pay-per-performance ad buys, an industry first. Second, RAD AI uses artificial intelligence to remove bias from creative decisions that might otherwise go undetected and eventually reduce the long-term value of a brand. Third, RAD AI uses state-of-the-art machine learning techniques that were optimized for influencer marketing Companies using its platform see tangible results, on average getting a 400% increase in content volume and a 250% improved performance while reducing the time needed to manage each campaign activation. This promise of boosted traction has seen RAD AI snag major partnerships across multiple industries, including education, gaming, entertainment, healthcare and CPG. RAD AI revenue run rate has tripled since last year, and it’s poised for another big year in 2023 with projections exceeding over $4.5M. As a marketing company with a first-rate AI platform that delivers authentic and unbiased strategies, RAD AI has a high accuracy rate and a growing list of enterprise clients.

Average Viewers For NFL Wild Card Weekend Drop By 4.7% YoY

Finance News

The TV ratings for NFL Wild Card Weekend are in and the numbers don’t look good for the league’s new postseason format. According to the data experts at The Sports Daily, viewership for NFL Super Wild Card Weekend is down 4.7 percent year-over-year and ratings took an even bigger hit with a 5.9 percent drop compared to 2022. For the second straight year, the game slotted into the late-Sunday window had the best viewership numbers and household rating. The New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings drew in 33.2 million viewers, the most of any Wild Card game in 2023. Despite its overall success, the numbers represented a massive 20 percent drop in viewership compared to the 49ers-Cowboys Wild Card game from the same time slot in 2022. NFL Super Wild Card Weekend Viewership Down 4.7%, Ratings Down 5.9% NFL Super Wild Card Weekend was filled with drama, storylines, record-setting comebacks, and stunning upsets. While several games came down to the wire, football fans seemed less enthusiastic about the start of the NFL Playoffs compared to a year ago. Overall, viewership numbers for the NFL Wild Card round are expected to be down by 4.7 percent YoY. After averaging 29.7 million viewers in 2022, NFL Wild Card weekend garnered just 28.3 million viewers in 2023. Of course, those numbers are still up from the NFL’s first Super Wild Card Weekend in 2021, which drew an all-time low 24.2 million average viewers. However, ratings are still down from 2020 (30.5 million) and 2019 (28.6 million), the last two years before the NFL expanded its playoff format. Rating also took a considerable hit in 2023, dropping by an average of 5.9 percent year-over-year. The late time slots on Saturday and Sunday suffered the biggest declines, dropping by 20 percent (Sunday, Late) and 21.97 percent (Saturday, Late), respectively. On the other hand, the Monday Night Football game had the biggest increase with viewership sky-rocketing by 32.5 percent. The jump can be attributed to two of the NFL’s biggest draws (Cowboys and Tom Brady) being in action. Giants @ Vikings Ranks As Most-Watched Game On NFL Super Wild Card Weekend With 33.2 million viewers, the Giants-Vikings game in the late window on Sunday had the most viewers of any game during NFL Super Wild Card weekend. The game also finished with the highest household rating at 16.28. Despite being the most-watched Wild Card game of 2023, viewership was down 20 percent and household rating was down 21.7 percent year-over year. Part of the reason for that is the 2021 Wild Card matchup between the 49ers and Cowboys averaged a whopping 41.5 viewers, making it the most-watched Wild Card game since 2015. That game also produced a 20.8 rating, a difficult mark to reach during the Wild Card round. Overall, FOX had the most successful weekend in 2023, thanks in large part to the Giants-Vikings game. However, the battle for No. 2 was much closer. CBS currently owns the No. 2 spot with an average of 30.9 million viewers for the Dolphins-Bills, however, the Cowboys-Bucs are expected to top that number when official figures are released. Initial estimates project the Cowboys and Buccaneers for 30.6 million viewers, which would make it Disney’s most-watched NFL Playoff game since 1999. Check out how the TV ratings changed compared to 2021 below. Buffalo, Kansas City, & Cincinnati Top Local Ratings List All eyes were on the Bills last weekend. Buffalo had the highest local ratings of any US market during Super Wild Card Weekend, drawing a rating of 47.2. Even though the Chiefs weren’t in action, fans in Kansas City tuned into the opening round of the NFL Playoffs at the second-highest rate. Kansas City drew a 28.2 local rating, the second-highest of any US market. Cincinnati, West Palm Beach, and New Orleans were next on the list of markets with the highest local ratings. Just missing out on the top-five, Ft Myers-Naples came in at No. 6 on the list. Meanwhile, Miami-Ft Lauderdale did not even make the top-10, a sign that Dolphins’ fans weren’t heavily invested in the team’s Super Bowl run without Tua Tagovailoa. Check out the top-5 markets in local rating during NFL Wild Card Weekend. Buffalo Kansas City Cincinnati West Palm Beach New Orleans Disney’s NFL Wild Card Game Viewership Up 32% To Highest Mark Ever Even though the overall numbers were down, Disney’s NFL Wild Card game turned out to be a smashing success. With an average audience of approximately 30.6 million Americans, viewership is up 32 percent YoY. Once official numbers are released, Disney is projected to add a few hundred thousand viewers to its total. As a result, the Cowboys-Bucs game is expected to be the network’s most-watched NFL Playoff game ever. Last year, the Cardinals-Rams game on ESPN/ABC drew an average of just 23.15 million viewers, the lowest mark for an NFL Wild Card game on Disney since 2019.

ChatGPT Gives Arsenal Vs Manchester City Prediction That Will Have Gunners Fans Pumped For FA Cup Clash

Finance News

ChatGPT has given us its Manchester City vs Arsenal prediction for their FA Cup clash on Friday — and it makes for good reading for Gunners fans. Sportslens asked ChatGPT, the language model developed by Open AI to generate human-like text, if it could provide a match report for the fourth-round match. The auto-generated pundit came back with some interesting predictions which would see the Gunners go through with a 2-1 away win at the Etihad. ChatGPT Makes Bold City Vs Arsenal Prediction With the form Arsenal are in right now, Gunners fans will be hoping the ChatGPT Arsenal vs Manchster City prediction is not far off as they go toe-to-toe for this first time this season. Eddie Nketiah is GTP’s pick to be the hero for the north-Londoners with two goals either side of a Kevin De Bruyne equaliser from outside the box. ChatGPT also reckons Riyad Mahrez will scupper a chance from the spot as his penalty is saved by in-form Gunners keeper Aaron Ramsdale. Check out ChatGPT’s Manchester City vs Arsenal prediction in it’s match report below. ChatGPT Manchester City 1 Arsenal 2 Match Report – FA Cup Fourth Round “I can certainly write a fictional match report for a hypothetical match between Manchester City and Arsenal in the FA Cup. Here is an example: “The match at the Etihad Stadium between Manchester City and Arsenal was a highly-anticipated encounter between two of the most successful teams in the FA Cup. The home team City started the match brightly and dominated possession in the early stages, but it was Arsenal who struck first. In the 27th minute, Nketiah scored a beautiful goal from a well-placed cross from White on the right, putting the visitors ahead. “City tried to respond quickly, but the Arsenal defense was well-organized and made it difficult for the home team to create clear-cut chances. In the 40th minute, City had a golden opportunity to equalize when they were awarded a penalty, but Mahrez’s spot-kick was saved by Ramsdale. “The second half began with City looking to push forward and get back into the match, but the Arsenal defense continued to hold strong. In the 65th minute, the home team finally found a way through, with De Bruyne scoring a stunning goal from outside the box to level the score. “The match was now evenly poised, and both teams had chances to take the lead, but it was Arsenal who capitalized in the 80th minute, with Nketiah scoring his second goal of the match. City pushed forward in search of an equalizer, but the Arsenal defense held firm and secured a 2-1 victory. “The Arsenal players and fans celebrated the win, as they secured a place in the next round of the FA Cup. The loss was a disappointment for City, who will now have to regroup and focus on their league campaign. “Please note that this is a fictional match report and the outcome of the match is not based on any real match or statistics.” For full story, visit: https://sportslens.com/uk/news/chatgtp-manchester-city-vs-arsenal-prediction-fa-cup-fourth-round/ Contact Details Finance News Alex Brown alex@financenews.com

CeCors Finalizes Terms with VetComm to Enter the Multi-Billion Dollar Veteran Benefits Industry

CeCors, Inc.

McapMediaWire - CECORS, INC. (OTC: CEOS ) ("CeCors" or the "Company"), is pleased to provide corporate highlights from the final quarter of fiscal 2022 and an update to the earlier press release dated December 19, 2022, regarding initial negotiations with VetComm Corp. CeCors and VetComm founder, Kate Monroe have agreed in principle to terms as part of the planned 100 percent purchase of VetComm Corp. VetComm Corp. is a veteran's education, and benefits company focused on assisting the over 14 million United States veterans that qualify for underutilized annual benefits and owed compensation, resulting in estimated Billions of dollars of unclaimed benefits every month in the United States. Users of VetComm can file claims for free, with no medical or service records required. VetComm also focuses resources to support and donate to Veteran Charities. VetComm's goal for 2023 is to help 1 million veterans get rated, offering support packages leading to benefits with costs ranging from $247 to $997, generating potential revenues for VetComm between $247 million and $997 million annually. As part of the initially agreed-upon terms of the acquisition, CeCors will issue a combination of unregistered, restricted preferred and common shares. In addition, each of Sukhinder Kalsi, Director and CFO and Amar Bhatal, President, Secretary and Director, will assign half of their Series A Preferred Shares to VetComm founder Kate Monroe as part of the proposed acquisition terms. Management of the Company continues to be focused on limiting dilution and bringing value to shareholders using CeCors current capital structure. Concurrent with closing, Kate Monroe will step in as CEO of CeCors, Inc., and VetComm will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary. Operations of the controlled subsidiary PsyKey, Inc. will continue to run in parallel. "Now that we have come to a mutual agreement on the terms of the acquisition, we can focus on closing and consolidating our efforts moving forward. We have worked diligently to reach terms agreeable to all parties and expect to close the transaction in Q1 2023. The more we learned about VetComm as part of our due diligence process, the more we understood VetComm's vast potential for growth. Kate is determined to enroll 1 million veterans into the VetComm platform this fiscal year (2023), potentially putting billions of dollars into the pockets of deserving veterans who have put their lives on the line for their country." commented Mr. Sukhinder Kalsi, CeCors' Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Kalsi added, "Kate is the most determined and motivated individual I've ever encountered. Being a marine corps veteran, she has real insight into the daily challenges veterans face due to a lack of financial and mental health resources. With the current uncertainty in the global economy, VetComm can be an indispensable service partner for all vets seeking benefits." "I'm very excited to have come to terms on the acquisition of VetComm. We have an opportunity to get our message out to every veteran who is entitled to unused benefits and compensation. The idea of being involved with a public company only enhances our platform to get our message out to the over 14 million veterans who are entitled to compensation. With our existing high-level political and celebrity backing, we're confident we will hit our goal of enrolling 1 million veterans this year," concluded Kate Monroe. Year in Review for CeCors, Inc. 2022 Milestones The Company has worked diligently over the past year to acquire its initial revenue-generating operations, and OTCMarkets has recently updated our online profile to denote our exit from Shell Status. This milestone was in part achieved as a result of the successful launch of our first retail-ready product offering, PsyKey Functional Mushroom Infused Coffee. The launch saw both consumer support and major corporate interest leading to the fulfillment of substantial purchase orders. Continuing with management's goal of steady corporate growth and wanting to help create inclusivity and ease of access to mental health support, the Company also recently completed the development of its Telemental Health App PsyKey Live. The App is currently being beta tested with real-world scenarios and expanded to allow for additional capabilities. Building a strong medical, scientific, and management team also continues to be a priority for the Company and was complemented by the 2022 additions of John Gustin as head of Global Business Development; Dr. Michael J. McCarthy as an appointee to our Scientific Advisory Board; and Dr. Shahiem Hartley to our Medical Advisory Board. The addition of Dr. Hartley will help the Company build a mental health support and education platform, while the additions of John Gustin and Dr. McCarthy provide a conduit into the scientific world and the ability for the Company to adequately develop and introduce scientific advancements and patented technologies to the market. On behalf of the entire CeCors and PsyKey team, we would like to express our deepest gratitude to our amazing shareholders for their patience and support this past year. We are excited about what 2023 has in store for the Company, and we look forward to providing regular updates as we continue.

Four Fintech Stocks For 2023

Fintech Payment Stocks

Financial technology, or fintech, is a broad category of companies that use technology to improve or automate financial services. Companies that develop new digital payment-processing solutions are considered fintech, as are companies that build and operate person-to-person payment applications. Many fintech stocks were hit hard in 2022 with the stock market downturn; however, 2023 has started off strong for the sector, and analysts and investors are taking notice. On January 20th, shares of Block, Inc. (NYSE:SQ) jumped over seven percent after Truist increased its price target for the digital payments company from $85 per share to $105 per share. Truist analyst Andrew Jeffrey lifted the price target as a part of broader research coverage on fintech stocks. The fintech market was valued at USD 112.5 billion in 2021, and the sector is predicted to grow at a CAGR of 19.8% to USD 332.5 billion by the year 2028. With plenty of room to grow, there’s a ton of long-term potential in the fintech industry, so it can be an opportune time to look for solid companies to hold for the long term. Here are four fintech companies every investor should keep an eye on: AppTech Payments Corp. (NASDAQ: APCX), Block, Inc. (NYSE: SQ), PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL), and Sofi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: SOFI). AppTech Payments Corp. (NASDAQ: APCX) is an innovative fintech company whose mission is to deliver a better way for businesses to provide their customers with customizable, immersive commerce experiences. AppTech’s all-new, patent-backed fintech platform, known as Commerse, is powering their "Commerce Experiences-as-a-Service," designed to fundamentally change the way digital banking, mobile payments, and merchant services are facilitated. Commerse provides digital banking, text-to-pay, crypto payments, and merchant services altogether from a single, unified platform that drives operational efficiencies and growth for businesses while providing the economic convenience that their customers demand from today’s commerce experiences. The platform incorporates Payments as a Service, Banking as a Service, data, AI/ML, MarTech, and other features to create flexible, rich, and personalized payment and banking experiences for their end users. Commerse provides seamless digital banking and digital payment acceptance, including credit card issuance of physical and virtual cards from credit card and alternative payment processing services such as text-to-pay, to cross-border payment capabilities, all housed within a single ecosystem. AppTech’s Commerse fintech platform is making waves and getting noticed. APCX received a shout out from Slatestone Wealth Chief Market Strategist Kenny Polari on Fox Business, regarding the stock's potential in the 2023 year. One of the key features found in the Commerse platform is the ability to "text-to-pay." Digital payments are quickly displacing other payment methods; in 2020, digital payments overtook cash as the top transaction method for offline commerce and accounted for about 50% of global online commerce volume in 2021. APCX is revolutionizing the industry with its ground-breaking, patented ‘Text-to-Pay’ technology for contactless transactions. Customers of AppTech have access to pre-built, API-driven features that make it simple to create and send invoices via text message and let customers make payments via text message, the most popular method of digital communication. APCX’s upward trajectory doesn't stop there, in fact—the company currently owns 17 different patents. In a recent interview, Luke D'Angelo, Executive Chairman, CEO & Chief Investment Officer at APCX, commented on their patents, stating: “First and foremost, our intellectual property is bar none. Obviously, big companies have good patent portfolios, but the key to intellectual property and patents is being first. I can say that we have been first on a lot of fronts. We wanted to make sure that when we came to market that we're not looking back. We're not looking to the left or right, we're just charging straight forward. Our due diligence and study of the fintech market for the last seven years is paramount." The company has a strong portfolio of intellectual property, ground breaking technology with all time high adoption rates, and a comprehensive platform that enables small businesses. Put APCX on your radar for stocks to keep an eye on in 2023. Block, Inc. (NYSE: SQ) is a global technology company with a focus on financial services. Made up of Square, Cash App, Spiral, TIDAL, and TBD, Block builds tools to help more people access the economy. One of Block's successes, Cash App, enables users to send, spend, or invest money in Bitcoin or stocks with ease. Spiral creates and funds open-source Bitcoin projects that are free to use. TIDAL is used by artists to help them succeed as entrepreneurs and connect with their fans more deeply. TBD is creating an open developer platform to make it easier to gain access to Bitcoin and other blockchain technologies without going through a financial institution. Recently, Truist analyst Andrew Jeffret adjusted his price target for the digital payments company from $85 per share to $105 per share. As part of broader research coverage on fintech stocks, the Truist analyst raised the price target. With the stock already performing well in 2023, it is one to keep an eye on. PayPal Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: PYPL) is a pioneer in the fintech space, and with 432 million active accounts, it's also one of the biggest players. PYPL operates a technology platform that enables digital payments on behalf of merchants and consumers worldwide. In a conference call to discuss financial results for the third quarter of 2022, PayPal Chief Financial Officer Gabrielle Rabinovitch discussed the company's plans for 2023, stating, "Returning capital to our shareholders continues to be our single biggest priority from a capital allocation standpoint, and I think it will continue to be." Even though PayPal isn't the high-growth opportunity it once was, with only 7% year-over-year revenue growth anticipated for the current quarter, it is still possible for PayPal to increase revenue per share by a double-digit percentage, which should be sufficient to outperform the market in 2023 and beyond. SoFi Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: SOFI) operates through three segments: lending, technology platforms, and financial services. SoFi's lending and financial services and products allow its members to borrow, save, spend, invest, and protect their money. It offers student loans, personal loans for debt consolidation and home improvement projects, and home loans. The company also provides cash management, investment, and technology services. While 2022 was not the strongest year for the stock, the past month has proven to be different, with shares of the company having gained 27.33% over the time period. It is also worth noting the recent changes in analyst estimates for SoFi Technologies, Inc. These most recent changes typically reflect how quickly short-term business trends change. Because of this, we can view favorable estimate revisions as a sign that the company's business outlook is improving.
