The Two-Desk Intelligence Engine
Three horizontal layers. Layer 3 Front-Line Enablement on top shows two desks, the demand desk and the supply desk, plus the shared redeploy and expand motion, with the outcomes each produces. Layer 2 Integration and Activation in the middle, three sub-bands bottom-up: Detect, Translate, Activate. Layer 1 Data on the bottom, with Clay as the orchestration plane above first and third party source feeds.
