For marketers, applying one-size-fits-all rules across channels simply doesn't cut it. The key is recognizing individual patterns. How do you know if someone consumes more or less content than usual? Consider return visitors. Instead of arbitrarily assigning significance to a specific number of page views, like five, how can you determine if they're engaging more or less than expected? Will they return, and when? These are the essential signals marketers need to engage effectively and maximize their investments. This is where Lytx proprietary profile intelligence comes into play. Each time an event, such as a page view or button click, is collected, a series of calculations occur. In this processing pipeline, we determine what profile to associate the event with, how it impacts the profile definition itself, and what actions should be triggered, such as a sync to your ad campaign audience. Most importantly, Lytx enriches each profile during that process with tangible signals that make activation a breeze. We call these our intelligence-based attributes. Within this category, you'll find our proprietary behavioral scores, interest scores, audience membership, predictive attributes, and custom model-based attributes. In the following modules, we'll cover the basics of each of our intelligence-based attributes and introduce some examples of how brands like yours are completely revolutionizing their marketing approach. #### Subtitles (WebVTT) ```webvtt WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:19.840 Understanding behavioral and interest patterns has always been challenging, especially when 2 00:00:19.840 --> 00:00:24.840 faced with the complexity of raw data.
