How intelligence shapes
influencer marketing

Six case studies showing how AI-powered discovery, vetting, onboarding, and analytics drive real outcomes for brands across the GCC and India.

TVA Group × StyleUp V Perfumes Amazon India Sharaf DG Halo Care Flipkart Fashion

How TVA Group (Now Part of Dentsu) Used AI to Discover Influencers Who Authentically Talk About Their Mothers—Repeatedly

TVA Group, now part of Dentsu, was tasked with launching a heartwarming influencer campaign around motherhood and family bonding for two clients simultaneously—StyleUp (Aditya Birla Group) and Flipkart Fashion. The goal went beyond finding popular creators.

"Find creators who don't just mention their mom on Mother's Day—but actually talk about her across multiple posts, like she's a real part of their story."

The campaign required influencers whose connection with their mothers came through naturally and frequently—something no basic search method could surface.

  • Hashtag-based filtering (#mom, #mothersday) was too seasonal and surface-level
  • Bios rarely reflect personal relationships
  • Visual scans couldn't capture the context of the relationship
  • Manual review of post transcripts was unscalable under a fast campaign timeline

Topic Detection Through NLP-Powered Caption & Transcript Analysis. Galvor's AI-powered influencer intelligence platform leverages advanced Natural Language Processing to semantically analyse influencer content across platforms.

How it worked

  • Parsed post captions, video transcripts, and audio descriptions from over 800 lifestyle creators
  • Detected recurring patterns linked to "motherhood": sentimental phrases, narrative anecdotes, daily mentions and role-modelling references
  • Distinguished between genuine mentions vs one-off promotional posts
  • Scored influencers on Frequency, Depth of reference, and Engagement on mom-specific posts

Sample platform output — frequency of mom-related content per creator
  • A qualified list of influencers who had consistently talked about their moms across multiple posts
  • Annotated post samples showing context-rich maternal mentions
  • Audience engagement metrics specific to "mom" content, helping the brand predict emotional resonance
  • Confident, data-backed creator proposals—not guesswork

The right influencer isn't just someone with reach—it's someone with a real story to tell. AI-based topic modelling lets you discover influencers who align with the emotional depth of your campaign, scale storytelling-specific discovery without compromising nuance, and deliver campaigns that feel genuine and audience-aligned. Emotion + intelligence = resonance.

How V Perfumes Found Hyper-Local, Language-Aligned Influencers to Connect with Immigrant Audiences

V Perfumes, a premium UAE fragrance house known for its modern take on traditional scents— oudh, bakhoor, and musk—was planning a storytelling-first influencer campaign across major GCC cities. In a country where immigrant communities form the cultural majority, the brief wasn't about showcasing luxury. It was about speaking in their languages.

The brand needed influencers using the hyper-local voices heard in homes, souks, salons, and taxis—ensuring products felt culturally familiar, not aspirationally distant.

Standard influencer tools could filter by country, follower count, and general category. But they couldn't answer:

  • Does this influencer speak Hindi or Malayalam?
  • Do they use Sudanese Arabic or Egyptian slang?
  • Do they code-switch between Urdu and Khaleeji in their stories?

Manually checking every post and video would be slow, subjective, and impossible to scale under a tight timeline.

Language-Driven Vetting with Galvor AI

  • Parsed captions, video/audio transcripts, and speech patterns across a large pool of UAE-based creators
  • Applied natural language detection to tag influencers by primary language, informal/colloquial speech (Hinglish, Arabizi), and code-switching patterns
  • Grouped by hyper-local identity: Malayalam · Tagalog · Urdu & Punjabi · Sudanese, Yemeni & Levantine Arabic
  • Curated a shortlist of 150+ influencers open for barter collaborations

Language-verified creators shortlisted

Organic engagement via native-language content

The campaign didn't just showcase fragrance—it evoked memory, belonging, and personal identity. Content in native tongues felt like a conversation, not a promotion.

In diverse markets like the UAE, hyper-local relevance beats broad appeal. For brands serving immigrant or multicultural audiences, heritage products, or community-first campaigns— language is the bridge to trust.

Accelerating Influencer-Brand Fit:
Visual Attribute-Based Discovery at Amazon India's Live Commerce Platform

Amazon India runs high-impact creator-led campaigns on its live commerce platform—where brands showcase products and engage buyers in real-time. Every product demands a very specific kind of influencer. Shaving kits need bearded, fashion-forward creators. Baby care products need parenting influencers—but not just any parent; ones with kids under 3.

The manual process before Galvor:

  • Discovery based on follower count and engagement metrics
  • Manual review of hundreds of profiles
  • Manual visual checks to validate influencer relevance
  • ~2–3 man-days per campaign just for shortlisting

Time-intensive, inefficient, and subjective—especially for fast-turnaround live commerce events.

For the Baby Care Products Campaign, the brand needed parenting influencers with kids under 3.

Galvor AI-powered Visual Discovery

  • Analysed over 500 influencers in the Family & Parenting category
  • Filtered using profile photos, bio keywords, and latest media posts
  • Shortlisted only those with a young child visible in recent content, matching engagement and follower criteria, and showing authentic parenting content

More time for scripting, pre-production, and creative

AI can drastically reduce time-to-launch, even when nuanced criteria like "parent with a toddler" are involved. You don't need to compromise between speed and specificity. If your team is scaling live commerce or category-specific influencer pushes, visual attribute discovery gives you an unfair advantage.

How Sharaf DG Drove MacBook Air M4 Footfall with Brand-Safe Creator Selection in Dubai

For the MacBook Air M4 launch in 2025, Sharaf DG—the UAE's leading electronics retailer—had two goals: build a brand-safe creator roster that authentically represented the Apple ecosystem, and convert online buzz into real footfall across its flagship stores in Dubai.

In a market saturated with creator-led tech content, one misaligned post from an influencer who'd previously endorsed Windows laptops could undermine the entire campaign. Getting the creator selection right wasn't just a brand safety exercise—it was the foundation for driving people into stores on launch day.

Phase 1 — Brand Safety Vetting with Galvor AI

  • Parsed historic posts, captions, tags, and hashtags across all platforms
  • Flagged any mention of Windows-based devices, Windows logos or product placements, and hashtags linked to competitor campaigns
  • Ranked brand fit score based on topical consistency and product category overlap
  • Delivered a confidence report within minutes: 0 instances of Windows endorsements in the last 12 months

Phase 2 — Driving In-Store Footfall for the M4 Launch

  • Identified Dubai-based tech and lifestyle creators whose audiences had strong overlap with key Sharaf DG retail catchment zones
  • Briefed creators to anchor content around the in-store experience—live demos, early-access events, and launch-day offers—with YouTube UTM tracking on every link
  • Coordinated content drops in sync with launch-day store openings, converting online buzz into physical foot traffic

Brand safety — zero competitor conflicts found

Brand safety and commerce aren't separate goals—they're two sides of the same coin. Getting the right creator locked in is what makes a launch campaign credible online and effective on the ground. Precision in selection = performance at every touchpoint.

How Halo Care Launched Fast and Iterated Even Faster with Structured Creator Experimentation

Halo Care, a fast-growing men's personal care brand offering face washes, shaving kits, and beard oils, came to Galvor with a two-part brief: get a nationwide creator campaign live fast, then figure out what was actually working—fast. They didn't just want reach; they wanted a system for continuously optimising which creators, regions, and content tones drove the best results with urban millennial and Gen Z audiences across India.

Traditional outreach looked like this:

  • Export influencer lists from discovery tools
  • Manually find and message creators via Instagram or email
  • Wait days for replies, then re-explain the brand in every thread
  • Track responses, budgets, and contracts across scattered spreadsheets

Time-consuming, repetitive, prone to drop-offs, and difficult to manage for 50+ influencers simultaneously.

The brand partnered with Galvor's Influencer Onboarding Team—a dedicated service arm that handled end-to-end coordination with shortlisted creators.

What Galvor delivered as a service

  • Influencer Outreach: Reached out to 70+ pre-approved creators with personalized communication; shared briefs, timelines, and sample creatives; managed all back-and-forth
  • Qualification & Vetting: Held intro calls to evaluate tone, content alignment, and professionalism; flagged potential brand fit issues
  • Rate Negotiation & Contracting: Negotiated within target CPM brackets; finalized scopes of work; secured digital sign-offs
  • Hand-Off: Delivered a fully onboarded list—ready with content ideas, schedules, and point-of-contact details

Part 2 — Creator Experimentation for Faster Iteration

Rather than committing the full budget to a single creator archetype, Halo Care and Galvor ran simultaneous tests across distinct cohorts—enabling sprint-by-sprint learning.

  • ✂️
    Bald creators vs. non-bald creators

    Testing whether a men's grooming brand resonated more authentically with creators who were visibly invested in their own appearance and grooming journey

  • 🗺️
    Regional South & West vs. North East creators

    Exploring how regional dialect, cultural nuance, and audience affinity shaped trust and purchase intent across different Indian demographics

  • 🎭
    Content tone — comedic/relatable vs. tutorial-led/aspirational

    Identifying which format drove stronger engagement and conversion intent for personal care

How TVA Group (Now Part of Dentsu) Unlocked Deep Content Intelligence for Flipkart Fashion's Creator Campaigns

Flipkart Fashion, one of India's largest fashion e-commerce platforms, engaged TVA Group for a full social audit spanning 6 months of content, ad spend, and influencer activity. The ask: go beyond vanity metrics and surface the specific content formats, tones, and creator archetypes that actually drive followers, engagement, and cost efficiency.

Galvor's AI-powered analytics engine processed 242 posts, ₹30L+ in video ad spend, and a sample set of creator profiles — delivering an intelligence framework that feeds directly into future briefs.

Engagement depth (high-intent)

85% of all content is Video, with 100% of ad spend directed at Video. Carousel posts — despite being less than 2% of content — delivered the lowest Cost Per Follower (CPF) and highest engagement depth, making them a significantly underutilised format.

Post Type # Posts Followers Gained CPF (INR) Audience ER Engagement Depth
Carousel 4 1 0.10% 6.17%
Image 36 17,650 0.06% 2.98%
Video 237 250,172 ₹18 0.09% 3.85%

Contest and giveaway posts — and content tied to Big Billion Day — drove significantly higher engagement. Posts around generic Independence Day themes or plain product displays consistently underperformed.

Text Hook Sweet Spot: 20–30% of Screen

Galvor's visual AI analysed pixel coverage of text across all image and carousel posts. Both likes and comments peak when text occupies 20–30% of the post frame — and decline sharply beyond 30%.

  • Top 30% posts — dominant keywords: contest, giveaway, follow, tag, Big Billion, Wrogn, lucky winner
  • Bottom 30% posts — dominant keywords: independence, fashion, spirit, free — plain posts with no interactive hook
  • Best performing posts: Avg 3,332 likes · 6,197 comments (contest & giveaway mechanic)
  • Worst performing posts: Avg 77 likes · 1.3 comments (brand logo, product display, lifestyle shots)

Note: Creator data based on sample set of 1 post each. Abhinav Mahajan and Aditya Vashisht lead on raw likes & audience ER; Abhishek Kumaarr leads on comments and engagement depth.

This audit turned 6 months of content into a playbook. Funny hooks beat plain styling. Contests beat product shots. Text coverage of 20–30% beats both zero and too much. And the cheapest follower acquisition (CPF ₹6–₹18 via Video) coexists with the deepest engagement (Carousel at 6.17% depth). You don't have to guess at what worksGalvor makes the brief write itself.
