NEW YORK, July 16, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- After the successful launch of "Clinch for Facebook", Clinch, a creative technology company that powers dynamic, personalized video advertising, is the first company to offer dynamic and personalized Instagram Stories, enabling brands to serve a personalized video at scale.

Despegar, the leading online travel company in Latin America, experienced a 28 times increase in return on ad spend (ROAS) when using Clinch for personalized, dynamic Instagram Stories, making it six times more effective compared to the brand's generic Instagram Story videos.

"Clinch enabled us to turn our Instagram Stories from a brand awareness strategy to a personalized experience that encouraged travelers to book more with Despegar," said Andrés Patetta, CMO of Despegar. "With Clinch, we are able to leverage our first-party data to engage with those that just booked a trip, as well as encourage travelers who hadn't booked in a while to reengage with our platform."

Beyond Instagram Stories, Clinch can also personalize the Canvas experience (e.g.: landing page, different interactive modules) within the platform. Creative can be changed based on a variety of data points including location, offer and demographics, etc.

"Instagram is really effective for brands as it provides a platform for deep engagemnt," said Oz Etzioni, CEO of Clinch. "Unlike other social products, Instagram Stories provide a native content opportunity for consumers to connect with brands and discover products and services. Clinch is bringing the same level of personalization and scale that it has developed for Facebook and programmatic ad serving platforms to Instagram, enabling brands and agencies to shift from just focusing on reach and awareness to performance."



Clinch leverages artificial intelligence to provide rapid A/B testing of creatives and generates personalized video and display campaigns at scale (thousands of versions). In addition, the product provides analytics and unique insights regarding client data segments and the best performing creative.

The product is the result of Clinch's successful completion of the Facebook Marketing API Accelerator, a prestigious program offered by Facebook to encourage the development of technologies to support advertisers. Clinch for Facebook integrates directly with Facebook and Instagram's API to remove barriers to entry and enables brands and agencies to leverage data to create personalized videos at scale.
