HOW INSIGHTFUL: Social media management platform Hootsuite has launched a new social listening tool, Insights Powered by Brandwatch, that allows marketers to conduct searches on specific topics across various platforms, including social, blogs and news sites.

PATENT PERSONALIZATION. Data service provider Semcasting has secured a patent for mapping IP-based signals across sources, enabling multi-point identity resolution. While the company has offered cookie-free onboarding and custom audience capabilities for some time, this new patent extends Semcasting’s IP-targeting platform to include media context, devices and networks. Why we care: As we move further into a cookie-free online environment, marketers are searching for new solutions to keep personalization efforts intact. Semcasting claims its ID resolution match rates average 85% — well above the average 20% to 40% delivered by cookie-based data onboarding systems. Source: Semcasting
