Introduction

Knowing the intent of users searching the Internet provides the opportunity to serve the exact information they need and influence their decision. For example, if someone types the search phrase “price of black dress shoes”, we have a good sense of what their content expectations are as well as their intention. Okiano uses Machine and Deep learning to figure intent of users and create keywords and Ads creative to meet this users intent. This is how we automate the entire search advertisement task for eCommerce Digital Marketing, and drive positive results to our retail customers.
