Purpose

This section describes how Moonbrush defines, constructs, validates, and serves standard persona models that translate rich psychographic and behavioral signals into actionable archetypes for product, marketing, and CX teams. It covers persona taxonomy, data pipelines, modeling, versioning, governance, and API interfaces.

Definitions

Persona: A probabilistic archetype describing consistent patterns of motivations, attitudes, needs, and behaviors observed in a population. Personas are outputs of modeling—not manually curated stereotypes.
Baseline Persona: A durable, longer‑horizon archetype inferred from historical signals (weeks–months).
Live Persona Overlay: A session‑level modifier that shifts a subject’s likelihood of belonging to specific personas based on ephemeral intent and context.
Persona Canon: The registry of approved personas (IDs, definitions, guardrails, owners, version).

Taxonomy

Personas are organized into a two‑level taxonomy:

Primary Persona Families (e.g., Value Optimizer, Quality Seeker, Explorer, Skeptic, Loyalist).
Sub‑Personas tuned to verticals or product surfaces (e.g., Deal‑First Explorer (Content) vs. Trial‑First Explorer (Product)).

Each persona has: ID, Name, One‑line Summary, Motivations, Frictions, Decision Style, Channel Preferences, Content Hooks, Risk Flags, KPIs, Eligibility/Exclusion Rules.

Data Inputs

Moonbrush derives persona probabilities from the same inputs described in Psychographic Modeling:

Demographic/Firmographic (optional): coarse bands only; never used as the sole determinant.
Behavioral History: event sequences, engagement, commerce, feature use.
Campaign Outcomes: exposures, responses, lifts from >100M interactions.
Intent & Context (real‑time): live actions, query context, inventory/price state.

Sensitive attributes (e.g., health, religion, political views) are excluded by policy and enforced at ingestion and feature derivation.

Feature Engineering

Latent interest vectors from self‑supervised sequence models.
Decision‑style indicators: research depth, novelty‑seeking, social proof reliance, price sensitivity proxies.
Engagement cadence: recency/frequency, session periodicity, attention depth.
Value & risk: predicted LTV, churn propensity, elasticity signals.
Context affinity: device/locale time‑bucket response patterns.

Time‑decayed aggregations differentiate durable vs. ephemeral features (see Psychographic Modeling for formulas).

Persona Construction

1) Candidate Discovery

Dimensionality reduction of latent spaces (UMAP/autoencoders) → candidate manifolds.
Density‑aware clustering (HDBSCAN/k‑means++) across multiple resolutions.
Objective combines cluster separation and business utility.

2) Persona Synthesis

Auto‑summarize salient features (SHAP/IG top‑drivers).
Generate persona cards (see template) with human‑in‑the‑loop review.
Register candidates in the Persona Canon with semantic versioning.

3) Calibration & Labeling

Train calibrated classifiers that output P(personak∣x)P(\text{persona}_k\mid x) for each k.
Enforce exclusion/eligibility rules (e.g., sensitive categories, safety guardrails).

Persona Assignment

For a subject xx:

Compute durable baseline probabilities pkdp_k^d.
Compute ephemeral overlay pkep_k^e from session intent.
Blend with learned task‑specific weight α\alpha: pk=αpkd+(1−α)pkep_k = \alpha p_k^d + (1-\alpha)p_k^e.
Apply decision policy: top‑1 (argmax), top‑N with thresholds, or mixture routing (weight actions by pkp_k).

Latency targets align with the decision API: p50 < 40ms, p95 < 100ms.

Persona Card Template

ID: PER-<family>-<slug>-<major.minor>

Name: e.g., Deal‑First Explorer

Summary: Concise description of motivations and decision style.

Motivations: (price wins, novelty, convenience, status, quality…)

Frictions: (risk aversion, complexity sensitivity, time pressure…)

Behaviors: (research depth, channel touchpoints, preferred evidence…)

Channel & Timing: (email/push/in‑app; best hour/day patterns)

Content Hooks: (try‑it‑now, comparison charts, social proof, bundles…)

KPIs: (click‑to‑trial, assisted conversion, retention uplift, AOV)

Safety/Guardrails: exclusions, fatigue limits, sensitive categories blocked

Representative (synthetic) quote: “Show me the differences and a quick way to try.”

- Behaviors: long reads, review mining, returns low; prefers deep dives.
- Content Hooks: expert reviews, specs, lifetime guarantees.
- KPIs: AOV, return rate, 90‑day retention.
PER-SKP-proof-1.0 — Skeptic Seeking Proof
- Motivations: risk minimization; needs evidence and social proof.
- Behaviors: dense research sessions, repeat comparisons, low initial CTR, high post‑proof conversion.
- Content Hooks: case studies, third‑party validations, transparent pricing.
- KPIs: conversion after proof exposure, refund rate.
PER-LOY-habit-1.0 — Habitual Loyalist
- Motivations: convenience, trust, predictability.
- Behaviors: consistent cadence, high brand depth, low cross‑category exploration.
- Content Hooks: reorder nudges, loyalty perks, and early access.
- KPIs: order frequency, retention uplift.

Replace or extend with vertical‑specific personas during implementation.

Evaluation & QA

Cluster quality: silhouette/NMI/ARI across bootstraps.
Stability: Jaccard overlap of assignments between epochs; drift (PSI/KS on key features).
Business lift: incremental impact on targeting vs. baselines (A/B or interleaving tests).
Calibration: Brier/log loss of persona probability models; reliability diagrams.
Fairness: parity checks on error/lift across non‑sensitive cohorts; counterfactual tests.

Updates & Refresh Cadence

Durable (baseline) retrain: weekly/bi‑weekly.
Overlay (live) refresh: seconds–minutes via streaming features.
Canon review: monthly; add/remove personas based on drift and utility.
Deprecation: mark persona as sunset with migration/playbook guidance.

Serving Interfaces

Decisioning

POST /v1/personas/assign → { subject_id, persona_probs: {id→p}, top_persona }
POST /v1/decision with routing_strategy="persona_mixture" to weight actions by persona probabilities.

Registry

GET /v1/personas → list canon with versions, owners, guardrails.
GET /v1/personas/{id} → full card + eligibility/exclusion logic.

Segments

POST /v1/segments/query with where persona_id IN (...) AND p >= τ to materialize audiences.

Governance & Ethics

No sensitive‑attribute targeting; explicit blocks in eligibility rules.
Consent & purpose limits: persona use restricted to consented contexts.
Explainability: per‑decision reason codes: top‑k features that drove persona assignment.
Fatigue & harm prevention: exposure caps; adverse‑action checks.
Research-Driven: In-depth research papers available upon request, justifying all standard personas available within the Moonbrush platform.

Change Management & Versioning

Model registry with MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
Canary rollouts; automatic rollback on KPI regression or fairness alarms.
Changelogs: document added/removed personas, schema changes, and policy updates.

Limitations & Assumptions

Cold-start coverage is limited; fallbacks utilize content- and context-based Personas are probabilistic and context‑dependent; avoid rigid, one‑size‑fits‑all use.
Cold‑start coverage is limited; fallbacks use content‑ and context‑based routing.
Over‑segmentation can dilute lift; prefer fewer, high‑utility personas.

Glossary

Persona Canon: the authoritative registry of persona definitions.
Overlay: session‑level adjustments applied on top of durable persona probabilities.
Mixture routing: blending multiple strategies weighted by persona probabilities.
