Affle 3i Limited has announced the grant of two new patents in India, marking a significant expansion of its intellectual property portfolio. The company disclosed this development under Regulation 30 of SEBI Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements Regulations, 2015.

The new patents are designed to enhance the company's conversion-driven CPCU model and strengthen its AI-powered consumer platform stack. These technological innovations represent the company's continued focus on developing cutting-edge solutions for the digital advertising ecosystem.

Patent Details

Podcast Advertisement Technology

The first patent focuses on "Method and system for enabling an interaction of a user with one or more advertisements within a podcast" through multi-modal voice and gesture-based inputs. The system employs intelligent analysis of multiple data sources:

• Podcast content analysis
• Advertisement data processing
• Real-time device signals monitoring
• Demographic and behavioral data evaluation

The technology identifies high-intent interaction triggers and facilitates unique engagement modes through ML-driven contextual mapping. This innovation transforms passive audio advertisement exposure into an engagement-oriented experience designed to drive new and repeat user conversions for advertisers.

Advertisement Fraud Detection System

The second patent covers "Method and system to detect advertisement fraud," which implements a computer-implemented framework for real-time identification, validation, and mitigation of fraudulent activities across the digital advertising ecosystem. The system introduces several proactive strategies:

• Honeypots deployment
• Zero-pixel detection mechanisms
• Blurred content identification
• Non-human clickable item analysis

The framework analyzes user demographic and action-based behavioral data to detect artificially generated or suspicious engagements, effectively distinguishing genuine human interactions from intelligent machine-based bot-driven activity or manipulated activity. The AI/ML-powered system provides real-time notifications to advertisers and blocks fraudulent sources to enhance conversion quality across connected devices.

Expanded IP Portfolio

With these new additions, Affle 3i Limited now holds 18 unique patents granted out of its total IP portfolio of 39 unique patents, encompassing approximately 300 enforceable patent claims. The company emphasizes that this robust patent portfolio underscores its continued commitment to developing innovative technologies and enhancing its competitive position by ensuring future readiness of its AI-powered consumer platform stack.
