Local Ad Platform (LH)

We made a platform for generating hyper-personalized, topical local ads It is aimed at helping local businesses create advertisements that tie their products to recent local events and topics. Local small businesses tell us their city and what they want to promote. Our platform uses Nimble to find recent news stories in the area, then leverages Black Forest Labs FLUX video models to create a set of 10-second campaign creatives. Each ad references a different local news story, allowing us to identify which topics resonate best with each audience. We leverage Tinybird to log all inputs (instructions from advertisers), intermediate outputs (news stories and Black Forest prompts), and final outputs (the generated videos), as well as internal logs for generation failures. Our code then screens for bugs and failures and suggests fixes before executing any new calls, so compute and tokens are not wasted before issues are resolved. These logs will also allow us to identify the ad characteristics that perform best, so future ad generation can learn from previous campaign performance.
