## Definition
Creative intelligence is the analysis of performance by creative attribute — hook type, format, background, offer framing, on-image copy — so learnings transfer to the next batch instead of dying with the ad.

## Why it matters
Element-level learning is what makes the next batch better; ad-level reporting only tells you what to pause.
