Audience Builder

The Kochava Audience Builder provides the ability to create audience segments. Each audience segment can be refined by a variety of metrics such as geography, demographics, points of interest, app usage and web usage. As metrics are refined, the number of estimated devices within the audience segment is updated providing an idea of the audience size that can be reached.

Audience General Settings

The Audience Builder page graphically displays the audience categories in real-time, including the estimated volume of devices in the audience segment.

  1. Enter a unique Audience Name.
  2. NOTE: To save an audience, the estimated size of the audience segment must be between 10K and 50M devices. As filters are added or removed the estimated device count will automatically update.

    NOTE: Filters with settings selected are indicated with a green border.

AND logic is used in-between filters, and devices must comply with every filter criteria. OR logic is used within a filter, and devices must comply with at least one of the selections to be included in the audience.

 

Example 1:

If United States is selected in the Geography filter, and Games > Puzzle is selected in the Apps on Device filter, the audience segment will be including users that are in the United States AND have a Games > Puzzle app on their device.

 

Example 2:

If United States and Canada are selected in the Geography filter, and Games > Puzzle is selected in the Apps on Device filter, the audience segment will be including users that are in the United States OR Canada AND have a Games > Puzzle app on their device.

If individual settings within a filter need to be removed, Click the “+” button to expand the filter, then remove the individual setting. Other filter settings can be removed individually by clicking the “X” to the right of the selected values.
