Campaign Fatigue Prediction with AI

Executive Summary

Predictive fatigue modeling monitors engagement decay, seasonality, and competitive pressure to forecast the exact window when creative and offers should refresh. Typical outcomes include 83% time savings and ~76% prediction accuracy, with fewer wasted impressions and steadier CPA.

Use Case Overview

Category	Subcategory	Process	Value Proposition
Demand Generation	Campaign Optimization	Predicting campaign fatigue	AI predicts when campaigns will experience fatigue to optimize refresh timing and creative rotation

Key Signals Used by the Model

Performance trend and engagement decay across cohorts
Creative wear-out indicators and audience saturation
Competitive activity, seasonality, and pacing
Time-since-last-refresh and novelty curves

The highest ROI refreshes happen before visible decline. By forecasting the inflection point, AI schedules rotations when marginal cost begins to rise, not after results have already dropped.
