Screening and scoring
Ace Metrix built a technology platform to get 500 viewers' answers to ten basic questions. These questions assess the key components of attention, likeability, desire, relevance, information, change, and watchability. These seven base-level performance markers are rolled up using a proprietary algorithm to produce an aggregate score for the ad known as the Ace Score. Ace Metrix also adds one open-ended question to elicit viewers' general comments, and two behavior questions. This qualitative data provides a window into the viewers' state of mind.
The Ace Score is on a 0-950 scale reflecting combined performance across seven key dimensions shown to impact ad performance. Ace Metrix collects verbatim feedback from viewers and mines these comments using natural-language-processing algorithms to generate scores of emotional sentiment, and funniness, among others. Each nationally televised ad and digital video ad is scored by 500 American consumers weighted to the United States census for age, gender and income.
As of January 2015, the company had compiled over 40,000 scored television and online video ads in its Ace Metrix LIVE platform, representing over 20 million consumer interactions and 13 million consumer verbatim comments.
