Set It and Forget It AI? Here's Why That's Dangerous

In this episode, I speak to Ben Weber, formerly VP of ML at RZR, to pull back the curtain on the AI and infrastructure powering modern mobile advertising. While many marketers view AI as "plumbing," Weber explains why understanding what happens in the data center is critical for performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency. The discussion dives deep into the strategic advantages of on-premise infrastructure, the transition from legacy systems to advanced deep learning frameworks, and how generative models are revolutionizing app onboarding. Weber also deconstructs common industry myths, arguing that complexity doesn't always equal profitability and that "set it and forget it" AI is a dangerous oversimplification in a competitive landscape. Whether you're a UA lead or a Head of Growth, this session provides a practical checklist of questions to ask your partners to ensure your AI stack is truly built for sustainable growth.

The Next Martech Advantage? Building an Insights Stack

Marketers have spent years building media stacks, CRM stacks and measurement stacks. Gladys Kong believes the next competitive edge is an insights stack.In this episode of MobileGroove, recorded at POSSIBLE in Miami, I speak with Gladys Kong of Azira about why location intelligence is a powerful tool that can give you a competitive edge and how AI transforms raw movement data into smarter business decisions that you can act on.Gladys is not talking about data for data’s sake. She is talking about making insight decisive, helping you understand behaviors like where people shop, eat, travel, and spend time-insights that go well beyond demographics and guesswork, empowering you to make more informed choices.In this conversation, we get into: Why “where I am” can tell you more about behavior than most marketers realizeHow location intelligence helps brands move from broad targeting to more strategic, high-confidence decisionsWhy AI is changing the game by spotting patterns, anomalies and opportunities humans would missHow Azira is making sophisticated data models more accessible to teams without analysts or data scientists on handWhy quick-serve restaurants, travel brands and retailers are using movement data to decide where to invest, where to open and who to targetGladys also makes a strong case that this goes beyond campaign optimization. For mid-sized businesses in particular, better access to insight can level the playing field and make advanced decision-making far more practical and affordable.The industry doesn’t lack data. It lacks a better way to turn data into action, and that is exactly where Gladys is pushing the conversation next.Chapters00:00 The Expert Play: Why Gladys Matters01:21 RIP Community Management: The New Era04:05 Stop Shouting: The Authentic Hype Method07:12 Weaponizing Creator Partnerships10:45 The Retention Hack: Closing the Loop14:18 Global Domination: Scaling Without Friction17:55 Gaming 2030: Future-Proofing Your Base20:58 The Blueprint: Growth Masterclass in 2 MinsSubscribe to MobileGroove for conversations with the people shaping what comes next in marketing, growth and technology.Subscribe for More⚡On Point Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7020756661006925824⚡Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5yFF2InbeIgkIRcxvDy3jm⚡Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-groove/id1585861460Let's Connect⚡ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/peggyannesalz⚡ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/peggyannesalz⚡Website - https://www.mobilegrove.com

93% of Marketers Are Using Rewarded UA — Here’s What Almedia Sees Next

The question is no longer whether rewarded UA works. The question is what it takes to make it scale. In this episode of MobileGroove, I speak with Joel Brodie, Head of Strategic Partnerships at Almedia, about the company’s new Rewarded UA Handbook and the bigger shift to rewarded as it moves into the core marketing mix. The impact is massive. Based on a survey of more than 900 mobile game professionals across major geos, Almedia found: $3,000 per day is the minimum budget to achieve meaningful campaign results93% of marketers familiar with rewarded UA are already spending on it61% plan to increase their rewarded UA budget in 2026. Almost 1 in 10 studios using rewarded now allocate more than half of their UA budget to the channel.Joel and I get into: What marketers get wrong when they judge performance too early Why D30 matters more than D7 if you want rewarded to scale How to think about short-, medium- and long-term engagement events What happens to rewarded now that web shops are hotAs Joel puts it, making rewarded scale is both an art and a science. The science is data, automation and predictive LTV. The art is knowing which events matter, when to extend the reward window and how to build campaigns that compound instead of spike.If you are still treating rewarded like a lightweight test, this conversation will tell you why that thinking leaves you behind the market.Subscribe to MobileGroove for conversations with the people shaping what comes next in growth, marketing and mobile.*** Subscribe for More ***⚡On Point Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/build-relation/newsletter-follow?entityUrn=7020756661006925824⚡Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5yFF2InbeIgkIRcxvDy3jm⚡Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-groove/id1585861460*** Let's Connect ***⚡ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/peggyannesalz⚡ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/peggyannesalz⚡Website - https://www.mobilegrove.com
