Solution

As competition in Australia’s streaming market intensified, Seven West Media needed to modernize how they engaged audiences and monetized content across their 7plus platform. Legacy systems made it difficult to access real-time insights, slowing down decision-making and leaving some revenue opportunities on the table. With Databricks, Seven built an AI Factory that now powers predictive audience analytics, high-ROI re-engagement campaigns and a self-service chatbot used across departments. As a result, daily active users have grown 40%, re-engaging “lapsed” users has delivered $16 million in incremental ad revenue and marketing efficiency has soared for both below-the-line and above-the-line audience communication.
