Last week, we had the pleasure of sponsoring the Digiday Media Buying Summit in Music City! The Akkio team shared insights on how AI can help media agencies activate their proprietary data at scale, and engaged in dynamic discussions about AI transformation opportunities in the agency landscape. Here are two key takeaways from the event and how Akkio can help fill AI and automation gaps in the industry: Agencies are experimenting with AI, but struggle to operationalize it across creative, planning, optimization, and reporting. ? How Akkio helps: We automate reporting, insights, and forecasting, freeing teams from manual work and arming them with more time and tooling for high-value activities. Measurement complexity and scaling retail media remain top concerns, with challenges around interoperability and closed-loop insights. ? How Akkio helps: We help analyze and activate first-party data, build predictive audiences, and deliver AI-driven insights to optimize campaigns. It’s clear that AI is the future of media buying — and Akkio is here to help agencies unlock its full potential. #Marketing #AIMarketing #AIForAgencies
