Creative-Versioning & Asset-Production AI Agent

What this agent does

Produces the versions, not the permissions

In
01

Take the signed master, the brand template and the version brief — sizes, formats, markets, languages and offers.

02

Read the rights record for every element in it: music, stock, talent, likeness, voice and font, with its terms.

Reason
03

Lay out each version to the template's safe areas and the platform's current spec, not a spec cached last quarter.

04

Swap copy, offer, price and legal line from the approved strings for that market, not from a translation it invents.

05

Check each version against the licence: territory, medium, duration, exclusivity and the markets talent may not appear in.

Decide
06

Hold any version whose rights cover, disclosure or claim differs from the master a person signed.

07

Route every offer, price, claim and legal-line change to the person who approves it in that market.

Out
08

Package for trafficking with the file spec, the naming convention and the flight dates the licence allows.

09

Retain the master version, the rights terms read, the strings used and every approval, asset by asset.

Product statement

The agent versions inside the rules and rights a person set. It does not clear a right, sign a master, or change what a version claims.

Example workflow

One version, end to end

AgentHuman
1Master and brief receivedA signed master, the brand template and the version matrix — sizes, formats, markets, languages and offers
2Rights readMusic, stock, talent, likeness and voice terms for every element — territory, medium, duration and exclusivity
3Versions composedEach size built to the template's safe areas and the platform's current spec, with the legal line kept in frame
4Localised and checkedCopy, offer, price and legal line swapped from the approved market strings, then checked against that market's rules
No human action required

Stages 1 to 4 run without a person in the loop — the rights read, the layout and the localisation are finished before anyone is asked to look at a version.

5DecisionSplits on rights cover and what the version changes from the master
Inside rights, nothing changed

Reaches the approver ready to traffic.

Rights gap or a changed claim

Held with the element and the term named.

Business affairs and brand approver

Business affairs clears the right; the brand or market approver signs anything the version changes about the offer, the claim or the legal line.

Amendments

Every change made in review is counted against the version that caused it.

What should not run autonomously

Human approval stays in control

Outside the boundary — human approval required8 items
Clearing music, stock, talent or likeness rights.
Signing the master a version is cut from.
Extending a flight beyond the licensed window.
Approving a price, offer or discount in a market.
Automation boundaryAgent acts unaided
Compose versions to the template's safe areas and the platform's spec.
Swap approved market strings for copy, offer and legal line.
Check every element against the licence terms on file.
Hold anything that changes the offer, the claim or a right.
Write actions run only inside the approval boundaries agreed during implementation. Clearing a right and releasing a version are not among them.
Changing a claim, a superlative or a comparison.
Removing or shrinking a legal line or disclosure.
Using a generated or altered likeness or voice.
Releasing a version to a platform or partner.

What the score decidesIt decides how much an approver re-reads. A rights gap holds the version at any score.

Value

Where AI adds value

The same four claims, placed at the point in the workflow where each one applies.

Where the value landsValue 01 – 04
Every version requestedFrom the brief and the signed master
03Template & rights

Apply the template and the licence as written

Use the template's safe areas, the platform's current spec and the rights terms on file — territory, medium, duration and exclusivity, read at production time.

01Approved path

Cut the resize-and-cutdown hours

Resizes, cutdowns, format swaps and market strings are produced before a designer opens the file, so review is a check rather than a rebuild.

02Human review

Surface the rights gap before trafficking

Versions that fall outside a licence, drop a disclosure or change what the ad claims are held now, instead of being pulled out of a market later.

04Build an evidence trail

Retain the master version, the rights terms read, the strings used, the spec checked and every approval — on both paths.

Integrations

Typical integrations

Five system groups connect to the same agent. Which of them are in scope is decided in discovery.

Agent controls

Six layers between the model and the ad server

Each control wraps the one inside it. A version clears every layer before it is packaged, and clearing the right itself sits outside all six.

How Nestack evaluates it

Evaluate every version — not only the master it came from.

Coverage runs the whole depth of the workflow, and every layer is cut by slice.

Surface — the versions a person approves

E1Final-output evaluationDid the version meet the platform's spec and the brand template?
E2Step-level evaluationDid it read the current licence terms and the approved market strings?

Failure modes

Where each failure originates in the agent

Seven failure modes plotted against the five stages of the agent lifecycle.

Affected slices

A clean master does not make a clean version set

Aggregate spec conformance can look acceptable while a few market and format cohorts carry most of the rejections, most of the rights holds and nearly all of the lost disclosures. Nestack reports performance by slice, not only in total.

Evidence-linked improvement

The licence expires whether the campaign changes or not

Terms end, talent cycles renew and platform specs move under a live flight. A cycle that re-reads the version but never the date closes the wrong thing.

Improvement cycle · five stagesSwitchback — the path turns at Improve and returns at Learn
01Detect

A rejection, a rights hold or a lost disclosure moves in one market or format.

02Diagnose

Traced to the licence record, the template, the string set or the master itself.

03Improve

The term, template or string set is refreshed, re-approved by business affairs and version-linked.

04Verify

Re-run across every size and market that master has already produced.

05Learn

The breach becomes a regression case and a pre-flight check on the template.

Learn → DetectThe return edge. Every cycle also re-dates the licences and platform specs in play — a version that was clear last month may not be now.

Typical build scope

Twelve workstreams across six weeks

The build scope read against the delivery timeline. Week structure follows the six-week plan — discovery, rights and template mapping, versioning and localisation, evaluation, trafficking, then production validation and handover.

Four phases across six weeks

Phases are drawn over the weeks they actually occupy. Week 5 carries both the native-reviewer pass and the first trafficked versions.

Next step · Advertising AI agent

Build a versioning agent around your masters and your rights.

Show us one master, the version matrix it has to fill and where your rights records live. We'll take that master across its markets and formats, and show you what the agent holds rather than what it produces.
